Work Experience

2. Over the past years I have performed several roles, highlighted below:
1) Pore Pressure Specialist.
This involved working closely with the latest MWD tools and utilising real time data to interpret
downhill pore pressure. Prior to 2013 this was accomplished with the aid of a software package
from Drillworks called Predict, but now we utilise In house software called Presscheck.
Essentially, they involve the interpretation of gamma, resistivity, sonic, neutron density data, to
mention just a few. The data is compiled into PP, FG & OBG curves, utilising both Eaton and
Daines methods.
However, delays in receiving data due to tool positioning related to the bit require a solid
understanding of drilling and rock mechanics, thereby allowing physical well responses to be
quantified, these are then applied to the present pressure model and action taken as required.
Findings and predictions are reported a minimum of twice daily, whilst working closely with the
geologist and company representative.
2) HTHP Specialist.
This generally involves setup up and monitoring all events that can affect volume control whilst
drilling an HTHP section, and mapping them to ensure full control.
Some examples are:
. Pump volumes at set flow rates.
. Turning on and off mix pumps.
. Pit volume calibrations
. Connection flow back related to flow rate.
. Check rig sensor calibrations.
. Mapping thermal expansion.
Thereafter monitor and map all pressure and volume related events and advice on HTHP
procedures when required.
3) ECD Management
This primarily involves monitoring down hole ECD from the pressure sub on the MWD tool,
relating this the hole conditions. Specifically, hole cleaning, differential sticking risks, hydraulic
and pressure constraints.
This involve liaising mainly with the driller and ensuring smooth and correct pump start up
procedures and maintaining correct drilling parameters so not to overcome the FG.
Other factors come into play when dealing with water based and oil based drilling systems,
primarily rock mechanics, especially in high angled wells.
