Drilling Fluids Adviser,
Oil Search Limited
Tony McCoy graduated from La Sorbonne in 1969 as a Geologist. Having worked as a well site Geologist and Petroleum Engineer, he made the transition to mud engineering in 1975 and now, some 40 years and 40 countries later, finds himself working as Oil Search's Fluids Adviser with responsibility for Drilling Fluids, Cementing, Waste Management and Environmental Protection, primarily in Papua New Guinea.
Having spent the majority of his 30 years as an independent consultant working for Shell in Africa, Europe, South America, SE Asia and New Zealand, the reduction of the environmental impact of drilling operations has assumed more and more significance in the projects Tony has undertaken. While finding technical solutions to the problems of drilling wells remains a principal element of his responsibilities, ensuring that proper environmental mitigation measures are put in place is now seen as every bit as important.
Tony's professional motto remains 'Technical solutions must have proper environmental mitigation or they become another problem'
