Experienced Drilling Supervisor with a proven track record of supervising rig-site unconventional drilling operations on 2000 HP land rigs in challenging desert environments. Demonstrated ability to deliver complex unconventional wells safely, efficiently, and in full compliance with SLB IWC standards, ADNOC regulations, and project-specific HSE requirements. Recognized for maintaining professional and respectful relationships with clients, ensuring operational alignment with unconventional well objectives while addressing concerns promptly to achieve high levels of client satisfaction. Extensive hands-on experience drilling a wide range of complex well profiles, including vertical, directional (S-curve and J-type), extended-reach, and unconventional wells for exploration, appraisal, and development programs. Adept at managing the technical challenges inherent to unconventional drilling, such as stuck pipe, torque and drag, wellbore instability, tight hole conditions, and formation fluid losses. These challenges were effectively mitigated through real-time data analysis, adaptive decision-making, and close collaboration with drilling, mud, cementing, and logging teams. Strong operational leadership skills with a focus on minimizing Non-Productive Time (NPT) and flat time through proactive planning, effective use of Look-Ahead tools, and structured 7-day forecasts to ensure equipment, personnel, and logistics readiness. Consistently delivered wells on time and within budget while maintaining high operational discipline. Highly experienced in preparing, validating, and reviewing daily drilling, performance, and HSE reports to ensure accurate documentation, transparent communication, and informed decision-making throughout all drilling phases. Proven ability to lead multi-disciplinary rig teams by providing technical mentorship, performance evaluations, and clear operational direction, with a strong emphasis on safety, efficiency, and unconventional drilling best practices. A strong advocate of HSE excellence, fostering a performance-driven safety culture by enforcing Life-Saving Rules (LSR), promoting Stop Work Authority (SWA), and conducting structured audits to meet and exceed corporate safety targets. Experienced in executing SIMOPS and Emergency Response Plans, managing operational changes through the Management of Change (MOC) process, and ensuring well control readiness through rigorous BOP and equipment verification. Successfully led high-temperature unconventional drilling campaigns using OBM, addressing thermal and wellbore integrity challenges while delivering fast-track exploration programs in remote locations without compromising safety or quality.
