2 year internship successfully completed.
Internship in the facilities maintenance division (Former Employee), Houston, TX –
Arrive to work after school by 1pm. Receive daily workorders. Completed workorders in a timely manner. If the job was above my skill set then I would recruit the help of coworkers and supervisors in order to complete the task.

Gas business is underachieving right now.
Electronics Technician (Current Employee), Fairmount City, PA –
Company was recently bought by this one. Recently 60 people where permanently laid off due to unforseen drops in natural gas prices. Overall a very good job with lots of challenges and the ability to keep learning is endless. But the future does not look promissing for this facility right now.

Changing well plans without MOC
Drilling Engineer / Well Planner (Current Employee), Lagos –
Pros: team work, integrity, training and learning.
Cons: i enjoy their new challenges
Work is normally a busy day while drilling.

I learnt how to work and manage people with ease by understanding their individual differences.

I work with my colleagues as a team.

The most difficult part of the job is changing or making changes to a directional well plan almost when we are about to commence drilling which is likely not to follow Management – more...  of Change (MOC) procedure expecially if the well has collision risk.

The aspect of the job that is most pleasing is achieving all the well geological and HS&E objectives, and at reduced cost. – less
