About the course: In well planning, the key to achieving objectives successfully is to design drilling programs on the basis of anticipation of potential hole problems rather than on caution and containment. Drilling problems can be very costly. The most prevalent drilling problems include pipe sticking, lost circulation, hole deviation, pipe failures, borehole instability, mud contamination, formation damage, hole cleaning, H2S-bearing formation and shallow gas, and equipment and personnel-related problems.
Understanding and anticipating drilling problems, understanding their causes, and planning solutions are necessary.
Learning objective: Oilwell Drilling introduces the
techniques and technologies involved in drilling oil wells. The course is
intended for personnel new to the oil and gas industry, specifically including
those in the administrative and support services as well as those in the field.
Oilwell Drilling provides a firm foundation knowledge of oilfield practices and
terminology that can prove invaluable in every sector of the industry. The main
objectives are the acquisition of information and the safeguarding of
production.
Pre-requites: A basic understanding of the drilling
operations.
