Oil well engineer vs completion engineer

Differences between oil well engineer and completion engineer duties and responsibilities

Oil well engineer example responsibilities.

• Manage development and production on several large, fast-track projects including waterfloods, a steamflood, and CO2 EOR.
• Coordinate activities with ModuSpec to ensure the rig are properly inspect and in compliance with API 4F.
• Develop detailed operational sequences and cost estimation for AFE approval.
• Manage development and production on several large, fast-track projects including waterfloods, a steamflood, and CO2 EOR.

Completion engineer example responsibilities.

• Lead a group of 9 engineers responsible for technology development for handling electronic packages (computer CPU) during HVM.
• Complete CO2, N2 and C1 base gas injection study by thermal simulation during wind-down phase SAGD process.
• Perform detailed analysis of compression project install in area of responsibility; identify incremental volumes and subsequently recommend for reserves booking
• Re-Define prior system network synchronization and timing distribution architecture, and work with hardware & software design engineers to implement.
• Coordinate between reservoir exploitation units and technology group within PDVSA in the selection workover prospects through basic and conceptual engineering.
• Evaluate potential improvements or precautions necessary to implement or work with wells completion / workover / intervention in different manners.
