Entry requirements and assessment information

Advanced Well Control

 
     
 

DURATION

3 - 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.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES


At the end of this course, delegates should be able to demonstrate familiarity with and understanding of the following:

• 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

DATES
