PTTEP Services Limited**Job Purpose**:
**Geologist, Wellsite** monitors and coordinates well geological operations (namely mud & wireline logging, onsite gas analysis) to be carried out as per programs and technical requirements. He follows up and control quality/validity of acquired data; recommends sampling points and testing/logging intervals; performs quick look for oil and gas show in mud & rock cutting/ sample to preliminary evaluate formation being drilled, be able to do stratigraphical correlations and be able to pick lithological markers for formation tops and casing shoe allocation. He/She coordinates and prepares daily geological/logging reports according to Company procedures, onsite monitors well geological contractors to conform to contracts and SSHE Management, manages packing and distribution of rock sample/core to third parties (partners, lab contractors), assists team in formation evaluation and contributes to the preparation of final well reports.
