What do oil driller do every day?

An drilling engineer may have many responsibilities. His work day may vary depending on the well or wells that need to be drilled. Generally, drilling engineers work in teams, with other engineers involved in the planning and the actual drilling of wells. No matter how much planning goes into drilling a well, every well is unique and has new challenges. So a drilling engineer is always learning how to drill a well better and safely. So, what activity can I say a drilling engineer does every day, is to communicate with others, to learn from past experiences and be prepared always for unexpected events.
