Pekka Bergström is a senior geomechanics engineer with over 20 years of experience in hard rock mining. He holds several degrees including a Graduate Certificate in Mine Design and Planning and an MSc in Geology and Mineralogy. He has worked extensively in both open pit and underground mines in Finland, Australia, and Ireland. His areas of expertise include geotechnical monitoring, seismic monitoring, ground support design, and drill and blast design. Currently he works as a Senior Drill/Blast and Geotechnical Engineer for Boliden Kevitsa Mining Oy in Finland, where he is responsible for drill and blast operations and rock mechanics of the open pit mine.
I am a senior geologist, drilled exploration and development wells, HPHT, deep wells , vertical and horizontal wells, land and offshore wells.
I am a Senior Pore Pressure Engineer science 14 years and 26 years in oilfield dealing with all geological and drilling operations, managing a team of experienced geologists, providing geological reports and all related work to costumer.
I have a long experience in the oilfield as described in my detailed attached CV.
I have a very good knowledge about the directional drilling got it from my experience and the good relation with the people.
Also worked for more than 4 years in Dubai with Sperry Sun in a COMBO unit containing (Mud logging/ M/LWD/DD).
Through these period I worked as MWD engineer for almost two years on loan from mud logging due to the high activity.
I learned too much from the directional driller at rigsite like how to design a holding assembly, building assembly, and dropping assembly using only stabilizers, and I learned too much from the people about the performance.
I have strong willingness to learn new technologies.
I am ready to travel any where any time.
Hope that I will get the help from your excellency.
Highly appreciated
Thanks and best regards
