Course Description
This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops.
This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Rig Component. It covers the role and importance of rigs component and the key components of petrochemical rigs; the power generation systems including diesel engines, electric generators and hybrid systems; the types of drilling fluids including safety standards, environmental regulations and best practices; the hoisting system components, drill string components, top drive systems and pipe handling and racking systems; and the best practice for the maintenance and inspection of hosting components.
During this interactive course, participants will learn the mud pumps and systems and solid control systems including mud properties and management; the environmental management and the basic principles of fluid dynamics as applied to drilling fluid circulation in rigs; the well control, blowout preventers (BOPs), monitoring systems in rig and risk assessment in rig operations; the emergency response and contingency planning for well control incidents; the latest advancements in rig automation including robotic drilling systems; the advanced materials and sustainable practices in rig operations including energy efficiency and reduced environmental footprint.
