About Anwer Aziz

AI-Driven Geological Leader | Digital Oilfield | Operations & Geo-Steering ExpertI am a Geological Services Manager and Senior Operations / Lead Wellsite Geologist with over 20 years of experience delivering high-impact results across complex onshore and offshore projects in Canada and the USA, including deepwater operations in the Gulf of Mexico.My core strength lies in integrating real-time geological interpretation with data-driven decision-making to optimize drilling performance, reservoir targeting, and operational efficiency. I have led geo-steering and wellsite supervision on multi-leg horizontal, deviated, slanted, and coring wells in both clastic and carbonate multi-layered reservoirs, consistently aligning subsurface insight with business objectives.Over 15+ years as a consultant and lead wellsite geologist, I have: • Supervised up to five rigs simultaneously• Delivered real-time formation evaluation and well path optimization• Led post-well evaluations and operational improvement strategies• Worked within multidisciplinary asset teams across multiple operatorsTechnical Expertise: • Geo-steering & formation evaluation• XRD, XRF, TOC, clay mineralogy & source rock analysis• Petrological & petrophysical log interpretation• EDR drilling parameter analytics• Sequence stratigraphy applications• Coring operations (clastic & carbonate systems)• Wellsite & mud logging platforms: WellSight, PowerLog, GEOLoggerToday, I am expanding my focus toward Digital Oilfield transformation and AI-driven geological analytics — leveraging machine learning concepts, drilling data analytics, and predictive modeling to enhance subsurface interpretation and operational efficiency.With a Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Geology and two decades of field leadership, I bring a rare combination of hands-on rig experience, analytical expertise, and strategic business understanding.I am open to leadership roles in: • Digital Subsurface Solutions• Data-Driven Drilling Optimization• AI Applications in Geoscience• Geological Services ManagementLet’s connect to explore how geology, data, and AI can transform operational performance in the energy sector.
