Back at work

Day 3 back at work and I finally have a project ...at least I managed to get through a fair amount of paperwork over the last 2 days!

I have been given a job on the Tunisia team. We have just signed a "Prospecting Licence" agreement, which means we want to understand the geology better before agreeing to sign up to drill a well.

The new boss and his second-in-command are both on holiday for respectively 5 weeks and 2 weeks, so I am effectively in charge of the team, which currently consists of Ulli (new guy) and me :-) Great, this really does appeal to the slave-driver in me :-) What's more, I have my new boss' office for 2 weeks, which is rather nice really. Still in the same awful building, but this bit actually has aircon AND a good coffee machine...what more could a girl want :-/

So that's the plan for the next half-year or so, then we will review the situation depending on how this project goes and what else comes up. I am basically part of the Africa organisation now so it could be anywhere on that continent (though I will just NOT go to Nigeria).

So for 2 weeks I am going to be reading papers and trying to work out what on Earth is going with the geology in this part of the world.

That's it for now...
