Advanced Well Engineering & Construction

Course Director:- H. Rabia 

One week course

Highlights: 

This is the most intensive course in our portfolio and is intended for those who want to learn , succeed and be the best.

This course has been attended by  every major oil  company in the  North Sea and  many oil and service companies from around the world. The repeat running of this course and the many excellent reviews indicate that this course is one of the best technical courses available in the petroleum industry. 

Audience:- This course is suitable for Drilling Engineers, Drilling Supervisors, Toolpushers, Petroleum Engineers, Asset Team Members and Project Management Members wishing to understand the engineering details involved in the planning and drilling of oil and gas wells.

The participant should have  a basic understanding of the oil industry and should have a University or equivalent education.

Learning Outcome: 

The participant will be able to assemble well data from  various sources, understand their relevance, produce a well design fit for purpose including casing seat selection ( Frac/pore pressure), casing weights and grades, hydraulics, drillbits, BHA designs, drilling fluids and cementing. The participant will also be able to produce a basic well costing (AFE).
