- Engineer and develop well intervention and workover programs for geothermal production and injection wells, including planning through execution and operational handover.
- Design and support complex intervention operations, including coiled tubing, wireline, fishing, casing remediation, wellhead repair, scale removal, and other downhole remediation activities.
- Develop detailed operational procedures, engineering calculations, risk assessments, contingency plans, AFEs, and cost estimates to ensure safe and efficient execution.
- Provide engineering support during field operations, troubleshoot technical challenges, and recommend solutions to optimize well performance and maintain well integrity.
- Identify, assess, and manage well risks throughout the planning and execution phases while ensuring appropriate engineering barriers and mitigation measures are in place.
- Coordinate closely with drilling, production, reservoir, HSE, operations, contractors, and service providers to successfully execute intervention and workover campaigns.
- Serve as contract holder for assigned intervention service lines, including defining scopes of work, establishing performance expectations, monitoring contractor performance, and driving continuous improvement.
- Evaluate and implement new technologies, equipment, and engineering practices that improve well intervention performance, reliability, safety, and cost effectiveness.
- Develop, maintain, and improve engineering standards, best practices, technical procedures, and well intervention guidelines.
- Participate in incident investigations, Root Cause Failure Analyses (RCFAs), lessons learned reviews, and other continuous improvement initiatives.
- Ensure compliance with applicable regulatory, environmental, company, and safety requirements throughout all phases of engineering and field execution.
- Communicate technical concepts, operational risks, recommendations, and project status effectively to management and cross-functional stakeholders.
- Mentor junior engineers, provide technical leadership, and contribute to the development of engineering capability and organizational culture.
- Demonstrate ownership and accountability for assigned well engineering projects, delivering technically sound solutions that prioritize safety, operational excellence, schedule, and cost performance.
- Provide well engineering support for drilling planning and execution activities as workload and business priorities require, including development of drilling programs, engineering analyses, risk assessments, and operational support.
- Collaborate with drilling engineers to share lessons learned, technical expertise, and best practices, contributing to the successful planning and execution of new well construction and other well engineering initiatives.
- Perform other duties as assigned by management.
