SCR is a dynamic, multidisciplinary environment with state-of-the-art research and computing facilities. We work on applied research projects in the physical sciences to meet the current and future challenges of the industry.
Description & Scope
The goal of this project is to develop metrics to evaluate the steering performance of downhole drilling tools. Drilling data acquired from the field need to be systematically processed and analysed for this purpose. Performance indicators for steering will be formulated and calculated using this data. Available jobs in the database will be then scored according to the derived metrices to identify problematics runs.
Deliverables
The recruiting process and the position can be adapted to fit most disabilities, please do not hesitate to mention this when applying.
