APPLIED DRILLING TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL

ADTI is a division of Transocean, the worlds largest drilling contractor. We have offices in Aberdeen and Houston, and through our parent company we can access operations worldwide, providing engineers with varied international development opportunities. ADTI has more than 30 years of experience with turnkey well drilling and project management operations. Weve drilled over 1,600 wells, totalling more than 16 million feet of hole worldwide for a wide range of operators, from small independents to super majors. ADTI has faced all types of challenges, drilling wells to depths in excess of 20,000 feet and designing and completing the worlds first 15,000 psi subsea well. Turnkey is a proven business model of drilling wells whereby ADTI accept the risks of getting the well drilled to the target depth and charges a fixed price to the operator for taking those risks. Some of the risks taken during turnkey operations are rig downtime, mechanical failures, geological hole problems and logistics. Thorough planning, outstanding execution and years of experience are the key attributes of a successful turnkey contractor.

Well Engineering Services and Project Management ADTI provides well engineering services ranging from specific engineering studies to the design and management of major drilling and completion projects. Multi-discipline teams work both onshore and offshore in well design and operational supervision. Our engineers have expertise in specialist drilling methods such as extended reach drilling, underbalanced drilling, high pressure high temperature drilling. Our engineering group also provides subsea engineering, completion, well testing, production technology, subsea well decommissioning, materials and logistical support services. Subsea Engineering ADTIs team provide a wide range of subsea engineering services, from wellhead design to installation supervision. We can also address subsea architecture design, well startup and operating procedures.

PROGRAMME OVERVIEW

WHAT DOES A WELL ENGINEER DO?

IT IS A COMMON BELIEF AT ADTI THAT THE WAY TO LEARN IS WITH HANDS-ON EXPERIENCE. OUR DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME CONSISTS OF THREE PHASES:
Phase I: Training Period: Offshore Training This initial period of practical training, which each Graduate Engineer goes through lasts for a period of nine to twelve months. Youll start with five weeks of induction and intensive safety classes to facilitate your transition offshore. This offshore training phase, where you work your way through some of the different rig crew positions, exposes you to the different offshore operations, providing a solid grounding and core knowledge of drilling operations and practices. A greater understanding of rig capabilities will later allow you to optimise well plans. As you gain more experience and technical knowledge, this forms the basis for your continued development as a Well Engineer. Of even greater importance, you become a member of the drilling crew, which builds credibility and better understanding. At the end of this phase you will take six weeks of core Well Engineering technical courses to build upon your practical knowledge. Phase II: Wellsite Drilling Engineer Equipped with the core technical training, you will be assigned to your first responsible professional role. A Wellsite Drilling Engineer (WSDE) is a member of the offshore engineering supervisory team, reporting directly to the Drilling Supervisor. During this phase, you will learn to implement the technical well programmes, which have been designed by the onshore Engineering team. You will gain supervisory as well as technical skills, essential to your career ahead. In order to gain operational experience, ideally each Engineer will spend eighteen to twenty four months in this role, rotating through different projects to gain a full range of operational exposure. Phase III: Developmental Roles Advancing from WSDE into developmental roles, you are encouraged to try out different areas within Well Engineering, to try to determine the path that interests you and plays to your strengths as an ADTI member. There is a map of potential career paths on page 7. Typically, engineers move onshore into the Engineering team, designing the drilling programmes or you may choose to move into the Subsea or Well Completions teams. Some engineers decide that the offshore rotational lifestyle suits them and elect to remain offshore becoming Drilling, Subsea or Completions Offshore Operations Supervisors with the responsibility of leading the wellsite operations. Well Engineers may also be offered international secondments within ADTI.

A WELL ENGINEERS ROLE IS A MULTIFACETED ONE. AS A KEY PART OF THE TEAM, YOU WILL BE INVOLVED IN MANY VARIED ACTIVITIES. THESE MAY INVOLVE:

Planning entire drilling and completion programmes Designing oil and gas wells in order to maximise production Liaising with drilling teams during operations, facilitating problem solving Continuing analysis of the entire project to ensure that all problems encountered can be learned from Designing mature well workover or abandonment programmes Carry out feasibility studies for subsea well decommissioning, extended reach drilling etc Preparing tender documents and commercial proposals with the contractual and commercial groups Ensuring throughout that the highest safety, environmental and financial performances are attained

Such a diversity of skills cannot be gained overnight. This is why ADTI has developed its competency based development programme to provide Graduate Engineers with the necessary training and experience they need to become highly competent and qualified Well Engineers.

Offshore rotations are typically three weeks on the rig, three weeks onshore fieldbreak leave. Whilst on the rig, you will work twelve hour shifts, days or nights. Full accommodation and recreation facilities are provided offshore. Fieldbreak leave allows you to travel, catch up on studies or just take time to relax.
