The Digital Drilling Analyst is the primary Level 1 point of contact for DrillOps Advisory and Automation. Working remotely, they coach and support rig site crews through Hypercare and the transition to the SaaS Managed Services model, providing first-line troubleshooting, workflow support, and issue escalation and follow-up. They act as a trusted advisor to the customer, helping them maximize value from the products in line with each project’s SOW.

Key Responsibilities

Project Engagement and Support

• Maximize utilization of DrillOps Advisory and Automation by engaging and coaching the rig crew.
• Support connectivity, software upgrades, and system availability with IT, the rig contractor, and support teams.
• Troubleshoot hardware, software, and process issues; set up users, roles, and workstations.
• Log software issues and enhancement ideas, propose bug fixes, and promote continuous improvement and cross-domain solutions.
• Contribute to technical discussions on workflow optimization, past-well analysis, and project value; capture leads and opportunities.
• Lead DrillOps implementation in the GU and hold performance reviews with DDEs, FDLs, and SDLs.

DrillOps Setup and Operations

• Create wells in DrillOps and configure each well, section, and run from the Drilling Plan / Well Program (via DrillPlan DDP or manually).

Remote Monitoring and Escalation

• • Monitor job execution for system usage, advisory outputs, automation utilization, and deviations from workflow.
• Monitor data quality: missing channels, latency, incorrect mappings, rig state inconsistencies, and abnormal values.
• Document utilization and system-related downtime for monthly RME KPIs; capture lessons learned from configuration, adoption, and execution gaps.
• Escalate unexpected behaviour with evidence: screenshots, timestamps, well/section/run context, active settings, and data channels.

Data and Documentation Management

• Maintain a structured folder per well: setup files, roadmaps, BHA information, checklists, reports, issue logs, screenshots, lessons learned, and final summaries.
• Follow naming conventions and version control; keep an issue and action tracker for each monitored job.
• Store troubleshooting and escalation evidence and ensure traceability of events, recommendations, escalations, and resolutions.
