Directional Surveyor / Drilling Engineer, Magnetic Film

You will review traditional magnetic single-shot and multi-shot survey materials for AI training. The work uses oil and gas directional surveying knowledge to assess film-based survey records, wellbore positioning, magnetic interference, and survey quality.

You will also explain your technical reasoning in writing and conversation so that specialists and non-specialists can understand the findings.

• Analyze magnetic single-shot and multi-shot survey film, including traditional film-based survey discs.
• Check wellbore survey data for errors, inconsistencies, misruns, and signs of magnetic interference.
• Apply declination, magnetic interference correction, and closure calculations to support accurate wellbore mapping.
• Evaluate reported wellbore positions and recommend corrective action when survey results are unreliable.
• Document interpretation and correction reasoning for educational and reference use.
• Contribute complex real-world cases involving magnetic survey tools and film-based measurements.

About AI training work

AI training is the human work behind artificial intelligence. People review documents, rate model outputs, and prepare examples that help AI systems learn. Experienced contributors are needed when a project depends on specialist knowledge, such as interpreting directional survey records and drilling data.
