. Drilling means to make a hole in order to get access to the earth’s subsurface
:Objectives may be
•Gaining information about the subsurface from
sampling/testing/logging
• Production/injection of fluids
(oil, water, gas)
• Monitoring of subsurface properties
(aquifer pressure, stress state, etc.)
Site Investigation
Scientific
Site Investigation is the process of collecting information,
Foundation/Construction assessment of the data and reporting potential hazards
Environmental .beneath a site which are unknown
Mining exploration
The oil and gas industry is usually divided into three major
sectors: upstream (or exploration and production-E&P), midstream and
.downstream
Drilling Engineers work in office and field environments including well sites,
which can be on land, offshore or on mobile drilling units. They are employed
either by the operating oil company, specialist drilling contractors or a service
.company
