Well Construction Engineering

Introduction:

This course draws from the experience and strengths of several instructors to deliver a unique course to the drilling professionals. The course is focused on engineering aspects of well construction from the planning stage to well completion. This course is essentially a recap of engineering analysis tools and methods needed by the drilling professionals (operation and engineers) to plan and execute the well construction focusing on safety and sound best practices. The topics discussed in the course include planning wells with predictive methods of drilling windows, casing design, and followed by real time well constructions and addressing issues related to drilling problems such as losses, well control, stuck pipe.

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
