What is expected of me and how and when must I submit my report: a. Who is my supervisor b. Whom do I report to 3. What sort of daily reports will be used for the project?, what are the deadlines (midnight OR 6am with an abridged update at noon)? What is the working schedule of the Head office & when do they want to see the report? 4. What is my work schedule: Regular schedule OR Depending on well progress (T.D.!) 5. Clarify from town if I am to pick the casing points? ; If so, do I confirm with the base office? 6. Clarify from town if I am to select coring points? ; If so, do I confirm with supervisor in town before I request a core? 7. Is it my responsibility to call service companies so that they on location on time or will the office in town notify the contractors of the wells progress? (ML, MWD, wireline logging, velocity survey, wellsite biostratigraphy? 8. Do I have the authority to sign service tickets for the above companies under my supervision? 9. Am I responsible for reporting movement and storage of RA source and explosives used for logging, sidewall coring and perforating? ; Who has the formal responsibility for these matters? Though the drilling department are primarily responsible for a safe drilling operations, they ordinarily are assigned for radioactives /explosives NOTE: Regardless of other duties, you are in-charge of ML contractor on location on location; (their problem is your problem).

Office preparation: Information to acquire from the office before going to the field 1. What type of wellbore is it-exploration, delineation, development, injection well?

a. Also get a copy of the well montage, seismic lines through the well b. A copy of the drilling program c. What is the expected Reservoir , Known Details about it, Stratigraphic sequence above and below it d. A copy or reference of the regional geology of the area. NOTE: Pay particular attention to litho-description and analysis of sample cuttings as it is necessary for the correlation and validation of the geological area drilled. 2. Is the well expected to be dangerous with expectation of shallow gas, overpressure zone, fault zone, Hydrogen sulphide, CO2? 3. Is the well Directional or Deviated (obtain a diagram of the well course and trajectory from the drilling department? 4. Are there special requirements for confidentiality OR will I encode part or all my report? 5. 6. Would I be supervising or witnessing any wireline logging. Is electronic data transmission of log data planned

7. Who are the contractors of the services provided (ML, well seismic etc, transport-helicopter, boat, land); get their addresses/contact numbers. 8. What are the sampling requirements- intervals of collections, types of samples, and how many sets are to be taken? Pg 44 9. What is the required measurement scales- Metric or API (Imperial units)? 10. Assemble collection of geological documents for the well for cargo manifest purpose NOTE: Introduce yourself, as courtesy, to the drilling manager and ASK for his opinion about the prospect which may be entirely different from the geologists. 11. Discuss the mud programs and possible changes to it and at what depth is it necessary.

Contact Information:

1. Introduce yourself to the service companies base offices in advance as their might be need for it in the course of the operation 2. With respect to wireline logging a. Find out the names of the engineer(s), their supervisors, their base managers name b. Is there an available second wireline engineer available as logging may exceed 40 hrs and there is a serious need for safe handling of explosives and RA sources? 3. Confirm that the wireline tools and downhole equipment are suitable for anticipated temperature and pressure conditions 4. Introduce myself to the logistics man of the company and find out about the flows of material transports of samples and cores and service company crew changes. NOTE: If I would be relieving another geologist who is already on location, contact him (by telephone or radio) before I leave for the rig to ensure a smooth crew-change. 5.
