DURATION

4 - 5 days (variable)

DESIGNED FOR

Senior operational and engineering personnel
(e.g. Drilling Supervisors, Drilling Engineers)

COURSE OVERVIEW

Theoretical and practical training workshop for senior personnel, highlighting well control issues and providing a forum for addressing client-specific well control-related challenges (lessons learned, etc). Well control assessment and examination (IWCF or WellCAP) may be incorporated into the course for renewal of certification.

COURSE CONTENT

Modules/activities available for inclusion include:
• Well control prevention guidelines
• Gas behaviour / gas migration versus equipment & well design
• Field models - impact of simplification on well control practices - myth and reality
• Kick tolerance and FIT interpretations
• Deepwater well control practices & challenges
• Gas solubility / behaviour of condensates versus well control
procedures and kick detection
• Horizontal well control specifics
• HPHT well control challenges and concerns - MGS design
• Volumetric well control methods (static & dynamic) / volumetric stripping / bullheading
• Practical simulator scenarios
• "Sidekick" advanced gas kick simulation software
[Available as a client-specific course on request]
