Actively participated in rig move planning and execution thus reducing Rig Ensign 18 rig move time by average 1 day.
- Monitored daily drilling operations and submitted recommendations to Drilling Team with an aim of improving wellbore quality and operational performance. Achieved reduction in hole related non-productive time in greater Tindilpie area in Cooper Basin by an average of 36 hours/well by optimizing drilling fluids and drilling practices.
- Participated in implementation of various safety initiatives. These included leading Stop for Safety toolbox meetings, attending Weekly Safety Meetings at various rigs to re-iterate Company's HSE policies and participating in Pre-spud Rig Inspections and Hazard Hunts.

Staff Drilling Engineer (Office Based)

Cooper Oil Project
- Received Santos Managing Director's commendation on successful start-up of 3 highly automated drilling rigs in 4 months. These rigs were first of a fleet of 4 rigs brought in from overseas to onshore Australia. Also managed start-up of 4th new rig.
- Assisted Drilling Contarctor to improve EHS and operational performance by jointly reviewing contractor's procedures, Task Risk Assessments and Job Hazard Analysis for critical, hazardous or non-routine operations.
- Engineered, designed and prepared Drilling Programs and executed day-to-day rig operations for 3 drilling rigs simultaneously, averaging 12 wells per month.
- Achieved greater than expected drilling performance through closely managed optimization and improvement plans. Within 6 months of start-up rigs averaged 1,962 spud-ft/day vs. initial 830 spud-ft/day, 2.5 days for spud-to-TD for 4,900ft wells.
- Participated in creating efficient "dual system" drilling fluid recyclable for several wells. Up to 35% reduction in drilling fluid cost achieved.
- Spearheaded a structured drill bit trial and redesign program aimed at creating fit-for-purpose bits with improved ROP and durability. Collaborated with Smith International, and Hughes Christianson to systematically identify most suitable bits, organize and monitor field runs, analyze run data, re-engineer bit based on findings and trial redesigned bit. Set new ROP benchmark of 352 ft/hr. Average ROP increased to 250 ft/hr compared to previous 110 ft/hr average. Boosted durability yielded up to 6 re-runs while previous bits achieved maximum of 3 re-runs.
- Introduced simplified drilling BHA design that reduced handling time, made most efficient use of fully automated pipe handling system and removed the majority of high exposure manual handling. Reconfigured BHA saved approximately 2.0 hours / US$5,000 per well.

Special Projects

Casing Drilling:
