Drilling and completion problems in complex wells can quickly get out of hand, leading to a significant cost impact on the program and a reduction in overall project value in NPT terms. Getting your team up to speed on the major risks and key success factors invariably leads to better results and reduces the chance of a “wrong” reaction to a downhole problem. Our bespoke training options provide solutions designed to enhance reliability and improve efficiency of any drilling operation.

Iain McCourt – Lead ERD Advisor

“I have 35 years’ experience in numerous drilling operations & senior engineering positions, all around the world. I deliver the full spectrum of Merlin’s services. I have always believed that personal integrity drives the highest service possible”.

Ali Blair – Engineering Manager

“I’ve been involved in drilling complex wells since 1995. I’m now responsible for making sure the advisors get the technical support they need when they are in the field. It’s satisfying when we can put the pieces of the downhole puzzle together and solve what would otherwise remain a “rig mystery”.

Al Burnett – Senior ERD Advisor

“I first went offshore in 1997 and since then I’ve been everywhere….twice! I still enjoy the challenge of getting a BHA to surface or a casing string to bottom in a difficult hole section.”

Tony Oliver – Senior ERD Advisor

“I’ve worked in drilling operations since 1994, supporting operators drilling complex wells from the office and at the rig site. I enjoy using data to paint the picture and guide the team to make the right operational decisions.”

Neil Armstrong – Engineering Director

“Our advisors are like flankers in rugby or sweepers in football; they work tirelessly to ensure that nothing gets through the gaps. They use their knowledge and expertise to identify gaps or potential drilling risks and consult with the key players at the rig site to make sure the right action is taken to avoid a train wreck. Enlightened drilling supervisors do not want to drill challenging wells without them. Their insights and recommendations ensure the plan is not just followed but finely tuned for success”.
