Advanced Drilling Practice Course
Introduction:
The goal of this course is to:
- Provide asset team members with advanced techniques for exploiting reservoirs to produce more oil faster, cheaper, and at minimum environmental impact and also to expose participants to the applications, and limitations of advanced, and emerging drilling and completions techniques.
- Enable participants to understand the operations carried out by directional drillers and contribute to the design of directional and horizontal wells. The course covers the fundamentals, design considerations and operational aspects
Course Objectives:
This course based on the following:
- Advanced Drilling Technologies
- Emerging Drilling Technologies
- Directional and Horizontal Drilling
New technologies are constantly being introduced to drill for hydrocarbons in a cost-effective, safe and environmentally friendly manner that will ultimately contribute to achieving the business objectives of asset teams.
Who Should Attend?
Experienced drilling engineers well site supervisors, drilling contractor and service companies, frontline drilling management and other E&P disciplines.
