Activities
The Ops Geologist position is responsible for :
HSE:
Strict application and respect of TOTAL Group HSE rules and procedures, being pro-active on this matter by participating actively to the “stop card” system and by reporting all incidents, accidents and/or potentially dangerous situation observed. For that he/she
shall:

• Have all HSE and medical certificates updated, and complete all HSE trainings required;
• Complete the 12 Golden Rules training (obtain the certificates) and participate regularly in the GR campaigns;
• Contributes actively to the development of the safety culture within the operational team onshore/offshore
• Key contributor for the proper respect of all safety procedures and orders applicable to all service companies personnel under his supervision;
• Contribute to the safety of operations through efficient implementation, integration and interpretation of real time detection techniques;
• Co-organizing risk assessments, pre-job meetings, prepare and review procedures especially regarding specific operations;
• Collect and share all safety alerts, incidents and/or accidents reports issued by offshore crews and service companies;
• Conduct, with help of SUB HSE coordinator, HSE & Technical annual visits/audits on service companies units (offshore) and bases (onshore);

Supervision of Geological Operations (including Geoscience personnel offshore):
Supervise Geological Operations of a rig (for Exploration, Appraisal & Development wells) on daily basis. This includes (but not limited to) well preparation, operations & acquisition program follow-up, coordination/supervision of contracted services and
performances (crews and equipments), real-time data QA/QC, basic real-time petrophysical interpretation and post well analysis. For that he/she shall:
Key contributor in well preparation (WSOR) process, participating actively in the preparation and redaction of all related documents (WSOR, well proposals...) in coordination with other Assets (G&G, Drilling...) especially for the well preliminary/prognosis pore pressure profile and data acquisition programs (including acquisition timing estimation, WSOR Memo writing and dispatching).
Purposes
Be an active member of MZLNG GSR leadership team to ensure optimized coordinated management of affiliate’s huge portfolio (>65Tcf or >12Boe on 5 Discovery areas), at multiple stages of development, partially in unitization, and in the context of a new O&G country

• Supervision of geological operations for 1 rig, occasionally 2 rigs from office and occasionally onsite.
• Preparation, follow-up and perform post well studies/reports of Exploration, Appraisal and Development complex, deviated and horizontal wells, including HP/HT wells with narrow drilling window, virgin pressure versus depleted reservoirs in the same drilling phase.
• Significant impact on well safety and overall costs.
• High impact on OPEX that may lead in a extreme case to re-drill a well in case of poor follow-up or misinterpretation due to poor data acquisition and supervision.
• Working in a multidisciplinary and multicultural context.
• Strict containment of the acquisition costs which requires good job preparations and flawless job executions.
