Applicants are invited with 20+ years oil industry expertise, strong background in along-hole depth measurement theory and practice, in both wireline and drill pipe methods

The Oil Operators well measured depth stored in company data bases was measured by wireline and directional drilling vendors using inconsistent procedures and old technologies. This causes issues and compromises the ability to deliver accurate oil in place assessments, geologic structure, reservoir pressure gradients, and added additional uncertainty to new well drill planning and geosteering. They are now committed to creating one consistent depth control procedure, which must be practical, meet the accuracy needs of the various technical disciplines and be vendor agnostic.
