    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • Definitely. My work was crucial in making a perforation decision for one of the wells. Hence, it was very relevant to an ongoing real-life project. Over the course of this project, I had to work closely with Geologists, Petrophysicists, and more. So I was given much responsibility and the support I had helped me to deliver and add value to the project.
