Job Overview:

The primary responsibility of the ROC – M/LWD is to monitor the DS jobs utilizing his/her skills, experience, and available ROC hardware and software resources. The ROC – M/LWD is the first point of contact, for M/LWD technical support, for the field personnel. The ROC – M/LWD should timely identify the job-related risks and hazards; and intervene to prevent equipment failures and non-productive time. The ROC – M/LWD shall seek the Subject Matter Expert (SME) support for complex and critical problems to provide an adequate and timely solution. Follows the corresponding steps of the Drilling Engineering process.

Responsibilities:

• Must know and comply with the ROC Standard and approved local Appendices.
• Follow the drilling engineering “Rules to live by”.
• Comply with standards, internal processes, drilling instructions and operational procedures during the job planning and execution phases.
• Establish and maintain constant communication with in-line management.
• Participate in all ROC pre-job meetings.
• Ensure remote-control application screens are connected or ready to be connected. (in situations of low field bandwidth) (TV lagging Field System).
• Utilize the relevant job experience in troubleshooting any change in scope operations.
• In case of the incident the ROC M/LWD must follow approved local incident/ event management process and establish the communication with management. The local incident / event management (OEPS Document – ROC Event Management Process) shall comply with ROC standard. If local incident / event management process is not established, follow the RTOC Standard (2.3.2 Incident Management Process).
• Follow approved intervention process to provide the assistance with operations when required.
• The ROC M/LWD has the full authority to STOP the job if current rig operation leads to Quality or HSE incidents.
• Should perform pre-run paperwork / programming verification. The Field Engineers to submit to ROC M/LWD on duty pre-run programming for all runs to be QC’d by RTOC.
• Shall validate the proper GeoMag Reference Input in Spectrum Navigator for each MWD run.
• Perform TFO Spectrum verification.
• The ROC M/LWD must establish the communication with M/LWD at the rig site and provide the verbal or written confirmation on TFO value and TFO measurement procedure before running the BHA below the rotary table. The Field Engineers must submit the necessary pre-run TFO paperwork to ROC M/LWD on tour. FOM to be included on insufficient submission email reply.
• Monitor all the Geozone in real time via approved remote-control application, WITSML streaming and /or WITSML LWD submissions. The designated high-profile jobs require closer attention to ensure the rig crew follows the proper procedures and instructions. In instance of high-profile / high-complexity jobs the well data access is requested from RTDS and the field crew is required to enable WTSML communication/ streaming. If the direct WITSML data streaming is not available, third party EDR (Electronic Data Recorder) access to be requested with appropriate mnemonics for WITSML data streaming.
• Deliver a quick update reports on rig related issue to relevant personnel.
• The update report to include Out of Specification (OOS) conditions encountered / mitigation employed / troubleshooting attempted / component issue. (directional drilling, hydraulics, controller etc.).
• Responsible for ensuring that operational specifications (limits) of the downhole DD/LWD tools are not exceeded.
• Quality Check CORE submission and upload to Reliability. The Field Engineers to submit CORE files post-run and post-well to ROC M/LWD on tower. Any insufficient CORE submissions to be sent back to field and FOM / PLM to be included.
• The JAR file generation is not direct responsibility of ROC M/LWD. The ROC M/LWD should help with JAR file generation when possible and doesn’t interfere with direct responsibilities. JAR files to be initially completed by FOM as per job call out / load out. Field Engineers to submit to FOM any requests for JAR files while job is ongoing.
• Field Email Submission Integrity – ROC M/LWD to ensure compliance with field submission emails. (ex. Subject nomenclature)
• In conjunction with Technical Alerts the RTOC M/LWD to be central point in collecting/ uploading all required failure submissions and posting to designated database in correct format. Any issues with gathering information to be brought to FOM’s attention via email.
• Proactively support the field personnel to ensure that operational specifications (limits) of the downhole M/LWD tools are not exceeded.
• Conduct RTOC self-audits in their districts, report findings to the ROC Manager, and actively follow up to complete audit’s corrective actions.
• Perform various duties and activities as assigned by supervisor within the physical constraints of the job.
• Demonstrate a personal commitment to Quality, Health, Safety and the Environment:
  • Maintain a safe and healthy workplace for all employees
