In a dynamic energy industry, oil and gas drilling is a cornerstone of the value chain, linking exploration to production to fuel the global economy.
Abderrezak, drilling expert with over 25 years of international experience and Altea Energy consultant since 2016, shares his insights on this rapidly evolving field.
” With a career marked by complex onshore projects in environments such as HPHT (high pressure, high temperature) and H₂S-risk zones, Abderrezak has demonstrated exemplary expertise in managing drilling operations. His skills encompass coordinating international teams, optimizing well performance, and adhering strictly to environmental and safety standards.
His career and profile exemplify the level of expertise required for success in this sector, where recruiting qualified professionals is critical to ensure project success,” explains Armand Pasteur, Co-Founder and President of Altea Energy.
Drilling acts as a critical bridge between exploration and production. When preliminary studies identify potential reserves, evaluation wells confirm their viability. Following this, production drilling begins to extract hydrocarbons. This process is essential to feed refining and distribution chains, and ultimately determines overall energy efficiency.
The last decade has seen significant technological breakthroughs reshaping the drilling landscape:
” These innovations make drilling more precise, safer, and sustainable, while opening new opportunities for the industry. However, such technological progress requires advanced expertise, which partners like Altea Energy can swiftly provide through their network of specialists,” notes Abderrezak.
As the sector evolves, future drilling experts will need to combine technical expertise with cross-disciplinary skills. Essential abilities include:
” Tailored recruitment solutions, such as those offered by Altea Energy, play a strategic role in meeting these high-demand skills and ensuring optimal project execution,” adds Armand Pasteur.
” Despite growing challenges, the drilling sector remains a strategic pillar of the global energy industry. Professionals who can adapt to new technological and environmental requirements will play a pivotal role in this transformation. With multidimensional expertise, they will contribute not only to efficient resource extraction but also to reducing the industry’s ecological footprint,” concludes Abderrezak.
” The rapid evolution of oil and gas drilling reflects systemic changes in the energy field. Between technological advancements, new skills, and environmental responsibility, this discipline continues to shape the present and future of energy supply. Our mission is to connect companies with drilling projects to the best talents to support them,” concludes Armand Pasteur, Co-Founder and President of Altea Energy.
