Supervisor, Fracturing & Completion

JOB PURPOSE

Supervise all wellsite completion operations including hydraulic fracturing, prefrac intervention or toe preparation, wireline pump down perforating, frac plug milling, flowback, testing, and equipment handling while ensuring safe, efficient, and compliant execution in alignment with approved engineering programmes. The role is responsible for maintaining well integrity, enforcing HSE standards, coordinating multi‑contractor activities, and delivering accurate operational and cost reporting. It serves as a critical interface between field execution and engineering, driving continuous improvement and service quality across all phases of the completion lifecycle.

• Job Specific:
• Supervise hydraulic fracturing activities from wireline perforation through to stage pumping, ensuring compliance with approved designs and barrier management protocols.
• Monitor pressure, rate, and sand concentration during operations; direct adjustments to maintain design integrity and safeguard well conditions.
• Oversee coiled tubing or jointed pipe milling of frac plugs, ensuring complete debris removal and clean wellbore readiness for flowback and testing.
• Manage rig‑up/down and operation of testing equipment; supervise flowback performance, fluid returns, and sand rates while ensuring safe and compliant disposal.
• Enforce well integrity standards, conduct inspections, test valves, monitor annulus pressures, and lead well‑control responses in line with IWCF Level 4 certification.
• Uphold HSE standards, lead risk assessments, and ensure safe execution of simultaneous operations (SIMOPS).
• Interface with Completions Engineering to align field execution with approved programmes; provide feedback and participate in planning and reviews.
• Apply best practices, report service quality issues, support investigations, and contribute to the development of improved operational standards.
• Supervise slickline operations and manage flow‑control devices; coordinate frac‑to‑production tree conversions ensuring compatibility and pressure compliance.
• Oversee installation, testing, and removal of NRVs and VR plugs, ensuring compatibility with wellhead configurations and pressure ratings.
• Lead multi‑contractor teams across wireline, frac, CT, slickline, testing, and logistics; chair daily coordination meetings to confirm scope, hazards, and contingencies.
• Ensure accurate daily reporting, validate field data, track costs against AFE, and report variances to the Completions Superintendent.
• Generic accountabilities:
  Plan, supervise and coordinate all activities; train and develop staff; provide input for budgets; investigate cost variances; implement policies and procedures; comply with legislation; contribute to performance objectives; design new tools and techniques; conduct hazard assessments; ensure work is executed safely; report to management.

Internal:
Interfaces with internal teams including Completions Engineering, Drilling, Production, HSE, Integrity, and Supply Chain.

External:
Coordinates with external service providers such as frac crews, wireline, coiled tubing, slickline, flowback/testing contractors, and logistics vendors. Chairs daily coordination meetings and ensures clear communication of scope, hazards, and contingencies.

• Minimum Qualification:
  
  Bachelor’s degree in Petroleum, Mechanical, or equivalent technical discipline.
• Minimum Experience:
  
  6 years in completions, well interventions, or stimulation operations (unconventional preferred).
• Professional
  
  Certifications:
  
  IWCF Level 4 (Well Intervention).
