Skills

    • Commissioning and maintenance of the mud logging unit in Jack up Rigs, Floater Rigs and Onshore Rigs.
    • Handling and Trouble-Shooting of Various sensors and Instruments at Mud Logging Unit like Pressure sensors for Hook load (60 bar) and Stand Pipe Pressure (400 bar), Proximity sensors for Draw- work, RPM and SPM. RTD sensor for mud temperature. Conductivity sensor, Differential pressure transmitter for mud weights. Degasser assembly. H2S sensor, Calcimeter and Gas detection equipments. 
    • Work includes collection of relevant geological/ geophysical information regarding the location and tentative well prognosis and thereby preparing a geo-technical order together with the driller, geologist and chemist.
    • Working in well site units, collecting, processing and logging geological samples, then undertaking detailed analysis.
    • Evaluating detailed and complex data for signs of oil or gas using various laboratory techniques such as ultraviolet Fluorescence and thin section analysis.
    • Monitoring computer recordings of drilling like RPM, ROP, SPP, Pump rate, Pit levels, Mud flow rate, Mud Density, Gas percentages etc and advice back to the drilling team for operational purposes to enhance safety and success.
    • Operating and maintaining a real-time computer-based data acquisition system that records all aspects of the rig activity and organizing the data for future planning.
    • Predicting dangerous situations, such as over-pressured formations by evaluating Shale Density, Shale Factor, D-Exponent and Sigma Log.
    • Gas logging (i.e. Hydrocarbon detection, gas analysis, reference degasser, other gases viz. H2S, CO2, etc.)
    • Early detection of potential drilling hazards such as Kick, Lost Circulation, Washouts, Over Pressure Zones etc thereby improving safety and drilling efficiency.
    • Calibration, maintenance and troubleshooting of all type of rig MLU sensors and instruments.
    • Preparation of Master log, Composite log, Drilling Dynamics Log, Pressure log (i.e. D’Exponent & Sigma plot), Gas Ratio Log, Gas Ratio Plot, Temperature plot, Shale density, Shale factor plot, Calcimetry plot, Hydraulic report, Trip sheet etc.
    • Calibration of Gas Chromatography Analyzer (GC), Total Hydrocarbon Analyzer (THA), Flame Ionization Detector (FID) with ppm gas, methane gas and mixture gas. Trouble shooting of the Gas panel.
    • Identification and description of Side Wall Core (SWC) samples.
