LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Well completion is the process that changes a drilled well into a delivering one. These steps include casing, perforating, gravel packing, and installing a production tree. The objective of this training is to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of well completion process. It familiarizes with the main completion components for naturally flowing wells: reservoir-wellbore interface, the completion string and the production wellhead. It will enable attendees to know about the downhole and surface completion accessories needed to optimize production and for future well operations. Intelligent completions are also explained.

PRE-REQUISITES

Graduates or engineers with experience, engaged in drilling operations, production operations, workover, and completions; petroleum engineering in both the service and operating sectors.
