  • Sep 2020 - Jun 2021

  Worked on rotation on the Transocean Equinox drilling for Equinor on the troll field. The work has involved re-entry & abandonment of existing wells to successfully drill extended reach multi-lateral wells. Took part in three branches which have been consecutive record breakers for TD & Open Hole Length on troll field at over 8,500 meters & 6500 m respectively. The key challenge on Troll field is logistics due to the volume of mud lost downhole on a daily basis due to extremely low pore pressures & large numbers of well crossings. Took part on Maersk Intrepid’s challenging HPHT drilling on Martin Linger field fully utilising MPD to drill underbalance & experienced Caesium Formate reservoir section supporting Sinomie. Experience on Johan Sverdrup drilling platform drilling taking returns of highly volatile clays, then conventional wells through to completion with NaCl Packer Fluid & 1.12 sg. Drilling of Exploration wells for Chrysaor/OKEA in challenging wells on the COSL Innovator. Key issues on this project were: Pit management & extremely unstable formations. Additionally, took part in a short well workover project to replace collapsed production tubing on troll field & drilling of phase 3 gas wells; and well abandonments on Veslefrikk. Show less
