When I arrived on pad 7 I expected to have a little bit of quiet time to sort out my end-of-year review etc. This is Radik's pad, and we have a trainee with us (a PT, learning about the wellsite) so logging yesterday afternoon was due to be done by them. I was planning on sorting out some admin jobs for Alexey, then getting a fairly early night as I has stayed half the night before naughtily finishing my book.
In the afternoon though, Radik got a call from basecamp from the PTs (production technologists-they do the next stage of the well normally, to production). They needed him to oversee a process happening on pad 5. So the logging job came to me, and with it a delay which meant they only started at 9:30 that evening...yes, another round-the-clock job, but I only lasted 22 hours this time before need to sleep for an hour-after all, I had only slept 3 hours the night before!
It was nice being in control of the logging again, without being told what to do, and even more fun teaching Yuri, the trainee, who was very enthusiastic.
The logging went very smoothly and pretty fast too; the engineer only made one mistake with the data, which I was nonetheless glad to have spotted. This time we had Maxim again, and Irina, although she was only there to supervise so didn't have to interact with her too much-not that she spoke to me during the night or anything.
So this morning, after sending off various documents and going to the morning rig meeting, I went to bed for a sleep cycle and felt much better for it. The rest of today was spent trying to put the data together sensibly although slowly!
I am rather tired so off to bed in a minute...still hoping to do my goals and appraisals/end of year review...zavtra ;-)
