Well Design & Construction Engineering

Introduction:

This course will provide the candidates with an overview of the well construction process and an introduction to subsea drilling operations. The goal of the course is to provide an insight into the planning and execution of a modern drilling operation. Emphasis will be on the conceptual design and detailed engineering design calculations involved in planning a well.

Course Objectives:

By the end of this course delegates will be able to:

Learn the industry current best practices methodologies in pre drill well planning for drilling window, casing design and mud selection
Understand real time drilling diagnostics and best practices to model and validate pre drill models for pore pressure, wellbore cleaning
Be able to deal with hole problems and best practices for remediation

Who Should Attend?

Drilling Engineers, Senior Drilling Engineers, Drilling Supervisors, Workover Engineers, Petroleum Engineers, Completion Engineers, Tool Pushers, Reservoir and Senior Reservoir Engineers, Geologists, Production Engineers, Wellsite Engineers, Foremen, Industry Personnel
