About the Role

We are seeking a skilled Senior Drilling Engineer to join our offshore drilling operations in Suriname.

Key Responsibilities

  • Well Design & Compliance: Design and review offshore drilling and completion programs, ensuring compliance with API/ISO/IADC standards. Optimize well trajectory and casing design using integrated geological and engineering data.
  • Drilling Optimization & Safety: Continuously optimize drilling parameters (e.g., ROP, WOB, mud weight) while maintaining wellbore stability and safety. Review and improve well control procedures (BOPs, kill manifolds).
  • Mud Engineering & Leak Prevention: Analyze and adjust drilling fluid properties to ensure efficient hole cleaning and borehole integrity. Develop strategies for lost circulation prevention in challenging formations.
  • Technical Supervision & Troubleshooting: Provide full technical oversight during drilling and completion phases. Resolve operational challenges such as stuck pipe or equipment failure.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with mud logging, geoscience, and engineering teams to manage downhole complexity. Lead emergency preparedness planning and response.
  • Compliance Audits & SOP Updates: Conduct audits to ensure operations and contractor practices meet international regulations. Update SOPs and technical manuals as needed.
  • Risk Management & Data Analytics: Identify well control risks and implement mitigation strategies. Use advanced drilling design and simulation software (e.g., Landmark, WellPlan) and real-time data analytics to predict and prevent drilling issues.

About You

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Petroleum Engineering or related field.
  • 7+ years of experience in offshore drilling engineering roles.
  • Strong understanding of API/IADC/SPE standards and well control best practices.
  • Proficiency in drilling software tools and real-time analytics platforms.
  • Proven track record in high-risk offshore environments with complex geological formations.
  • Excellent communication and coordination skills across multidisciplinary teams.

Why Join Us?
