Description
MAIN FUNCTIONS
The Well Performance Engineer is responsible for monitoring, diagnosing and optimising well and network performance to maximise production and injection efficiency across the Egina Field. The role focuses on well surveillance, production optimisation, well integrity monitoring, performance modelling and identifying opportunities to improve field production while ensuring compliance with reservoir management and HSE requirements.
TASK AND RESPONSIBILITIES
- Monitor individual well and riser performance, ensuring reliable production and injection measurements.
- Coordinate well monitoring tests with planning and offshore site teams and validate well production potential.
- Establish and update well operating guidelines, including production and injection targets, well restart procedures and operating parameters.
- Diagnose well and network performance issues and recommend corrective actions to improve production efficiency.
- Develop and maintain well and network simulation models using PROSPER, GAP and other relevant tools.
- Conduct productivity and injectivity studies, gas lift optimisation and well performance assessments.
- Identify well and riser anomalies, monitor production trends and recommend optimisation opportunities.
- Monitor Well Performance KPIs and prepare regular performance reports for management.
- Lead multidisciplinary Well Performance Group meetings to identify production improvement opportunities, well integrity concerns and potential interventions.
- Support well intervention planning, candidate selection and preparation of Statements of Requirements (SOR) to maximise intervention success.
- Coordinate well metering and production allocation activities, including MPFM monitoring, correction factor implementation and follow-up.
- Liaise with reservoir, geoscience, drilling, production and field operations teams to optimise well and network performance.
- Provide technical input on production routing during planned and unplanned shutdowns and topsides interventions.
- Support the commissioning and safe start-up of newly drilled and completed wells.
- Monitor preliminary well integrity issues and escalate concerns to the Well Integrity Lead Engineer.
- Provide technical support for well interventions, production optimisation and field development activities.
