About Wade
Mr. Wondrasek has over 34 years of successful drilling experience, focusing his career on the optimization of all aspects of drilling operations. He started in the oil and gas industry in 1992 as a roughneck on Canadian drilling rigs. Through hard work and an eagerness to learn, Mr. Wondrasek quickly moved up to the position of rig manager. By 2004, Mr. Wondrasek was working as an on-site drilling supervisor for several major E&P companies.
Mr. Wondrasek joined the corporate office of Paramount Resources in 2011. He spent the next 8 years leading drilling operations in the challenging areas of Deep Basin Montney and Duvernay, with over 800 Montney amd Duvernay wells drilled to date and counting. Mr. Wondrasek has also successfully drilled HTHP Liard Basin in the Besa River shale, as well as very challenging water disposal wells in the Leduc Reef. During this time with Paramount, he has reduced average drill time by up to 80% and reduced average well drilling cost’s by over 67%.
While working as a Senior Drilling Superintendent, Wade’s thirst for knowledge led him to complete his education. Wade is now registered through ASET as a P. Tech. (Eng.). His passion is sharing this extensive experience that can be applied to all types of operations. He is a very result driven person; mediocracy is not an option. Wade expects only the best from himself.
Mr. Wondrasek has spent his career drilling the toughest, most complicated wells in Canada with outstanding success of decreasing days and dollars. His proven track record of success can be attributed to being innovative and motivated with the ability to think outside the box. With the constant demand domestically and internationally for his expertise Mr. Wondrasek decided to form Boax Resource Management to help other companies perfect their drilling practices to have the success they desire.
“Since the start of my career I have treated the people and services on my job sites with respect and the results in return are rewarding. It is my expectation that from roughneck to drilling supervisor including the services doing work on my locations that they are treated equally. I found with this philosophy that the respect between parties is mutually received and the work ethics in return are of the highest degree”.
To have a worksite that is running efficiently and safely all personnel are required to be on board with this. I strongly adhere to this philosophy and the industry leading results I have produced are directly related. “An efficient work site is a safe worksite, a safe worksite is an efficient worksite”.
