Ajlala Bukhari
I had the pleasure of working with Saad during my time at Weatherford. We got hired together and since worked together on multiple wells on-site. Saad is a hardworking and dedicated individual who works selflessly to deliver and help all those around him. He is motivated, confident and an exceptionally quick learner. One thing about him that stands out to me the most about him is his ability to keep his cool in stressful situations, which became evident to me from our experience together on a field where we were faced by an unforeseen panic situation. I wish Saad all the best in what is to come in his life and one hundred percent recommend him as a good colleague and a team player.

Saad worked under me on 3 major drilling projects for a Chinese and Pakistani client. He is an individual with immense potential for planning, operations, and service delivery. His grip over technical and operational knowledge is laudable. With a good understanding of the energy industry's dynamics so early in his career, I see him as a great future leader who will add unique value to any team he works in. All my best wishes to him.
