What are Oilfield Consultants?
Oilfield consultants are individuals who are contracted to supervise activities and personnel on location for an operating company. They oversee drilling, completion and production operations, as well as safety supervision and site construction.
Oilfield consultants generally work in locations where there is activity in drilling and completing oil and gas wells. They will typically stay on site for several weeks at a time as they supervise operations. While oilfield consultants can be found working on locations across the globe, DTC Energy Group’s oilfield consultants work domestically in many basins throughout the U.S.
Operators benefit from hiring oilfield consultants through oilfield consulting firms, rather than employing their own, in several key ways.
Oilfield consulting firms provide an immediate solution for filling a need for talent on a project-by-project basis. Through a consulting firm such as DTC Energy Group, operators are able to tap into a large pool of highly talented and experienced consultants who are readily available to cover any given project. Once the project has concluded, a consulting firm provides a smooth transition for releasing talent until their services are again needed.
