Main Purpose:

To lead the design, planning, and execution support of CBM (Coalbed Methane) wells, ensuring technical integrity, cost-efficiency, and regulatory & HSE compliance. This role drives well delivery from concept to execution readiness, integrating subsurface understanding with drilling and completion technologies tailored for CBM fields.


Job Responsibilities:


Well Planning & Design:

  • Lead well planning activities for CBM wells (vertical, deviated, multilateral, or cluster), including location selection support.
  • Prepare well designs (casing, cementing, well trajectory, mud program) aligned with reservoir and geo-mechanical models.
  • Develop detailed Basis of Design (BoD), risk registers, and contingency plans.
  • Design fit-for-purpose and cost-optimized completions for CBM production (e.g., cavitation, open-hole, or fracked completions)


Engineering & Cost Control:

  • Generate drilling and completion AFE (Authorization for Expenditure) and monitor actual vs budget.
  • Assist in developing various Scope of Work and technical specifications for Drilling & Well Completion equipment for tender packages to be in line with the engineering standards and meeting the operational requirement.
  • Select equipment and materials in collaboration with procurement and service vendors.
  • Evaluate and apply new CBM-relevant technologies (e.g., slim-hole, underbalanced drilling, horizontal CBM).
  • Evaluate and monitor the contractor's performance to ensure the improvement of their service and ensure compliance with safety, contractual, procedural and regulatory requirements.


Operational Support:

  • Provide real-time technical support to the execution team during drilling, casing, cementing, and completions.
  • Conduct post-well reviews and implement lessons learned for continuous improvement.


Cross-Functional Coordination:

  • Work closely with subsurface teams (geology, reservoir, petrophysics) for well targeting and zonal optimization.
  • Coordinate with HSE, land access, and surface facility teams to ensure alignment of well delivery schedule.


Regulatory & Compliance:

  • Ensure all well designs and activities comply with DGH, OISD, MoEF, and other statutory regulations.
  • Prepare and submit necessary documentation for permits and approvals.


Team Management & Leadership:

  • Lead a team of well engineers and mentor junior staff.
  • Manage interfaces with consultants, contractors, and service providers for well engineering deliverables.


Education:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s in Petroleum Engineering / Mechanical Engineering or related field.


Experience:

  • Over 10 years of upstream oil & gas experience, with 3+ years specifically in CBM operations .
  • Proven experience in well design and engineering for low-pressure, unconventional gas wells.
  • Hands-on exposure to CBM-specific challenges such as coal stability, dewatering strategies, and completions.


Skills:

  • Proficiency in well design software (Landmark, WellPlan, Compass, StressCheck, etc.).
  • Strong knowledge of CBM reservoir behaviour and gas production mechanisms.
  • Budgeting and AFE preparation.
  • Strong project management and communication skills.
