Position: Drilling Engineering Intern – Silverwind Exploration Project (Summer 2027)

Calling Future Drilling Engineers! Repsol is seeking a highly motivated engineering student to join our Wells Exploration Team in Anchorage, Alaska for the Summer 2027 internship program.

Are you interested in designing wells, solving complex engineering challenges, and supporting the next generation of Alaska exploration projects? Join Repsol's Wells Exploration Team and gain hands-on experience supporting the planning and preparation of an Alaska exploration drilling campaign. You'll help transform engineering data into actionable insights while seeing how exploration wells move from concept to execution.

This internship offers a unique opportunity to contribute to the planning of the Silverwind Exploration Project
, one of Repsol's key Alaska exploration initiatives. Working alongside experienced drilling engineers and technical professionals, you'll gain hands-on exposure to well planning, well engineering, project execution, performance analysis, and operational readiness activities.

This opportunity is geared toward students pursuing Petroleum Engineering (preferred), Mechanical Engineering, or related engineering disciplines who are interested in careers in drilling engineering, well construction, and upstream operations. Preference will be given to students attending Alaska universities and colleges.

Why Intern with Repsol?

Repsol's internship program is designed to bridge the gap between classroom learning and real-world application. Our interns are not simply observers. You'll work on meaningful projects that support active business objectives while developing skills that directly support a future career in drilling engineering and well construction. At the conclusion of the internship, you'll present your project findings and recommendations to technical and business leaders.

As

a Drilling Engineering Intern, you will:
  • Receive mentorship from experienced drilling and wells professionals.
  • Support a major Alaska exploration project with meaningful business impact.
  • Gain hands-on experience applying engineering principles to real drilling and well planning challenges.
  • Develop technical, analytical, and project management skills.
  • Collaborate with Wells, HSE, Logistics, Supply Chain, Operations, and Subsurface teams.
  • Build professional relationships across Repsol while gaining exposure to industry-standard engineering and analytics tools.
What You'll Do

The Drilling Engineering Intern will support the Wells team in the planning and preparation of drilling activities for the Silverwind Exploration Project.

Key responsibilities include:
  • Supporting drilling engineers with well planning activities, engineering calculations, technical evaluations, data analysis, and documentation.
  • Developing and maintaining Power BI dashboards to track drilling KPIs, project schedules, costs, tendering progress, and performance metrics.
  • Creating and enhancing Excel-based engineering tools, reports, and project databases.
  • Assisting with well programs, engineering reports, technical presentations, and project updates.
  • Organizing and analyzing offset well data, benchmarking information, and lessons learned from previous drilling campaigns.
  • Supporting drilling cost tracking, performance analysis, and operational readiness efforts.
  • Collaborating with Wells, HSE, Supply Chain, Logistics, Subsurface, and other project teams.
  • Presenting project findings, recommendations, and key learnings to Repsol leadership at the conclusion of the internship.
