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 advanced drilling technologies, techniques and optimization. It covers the problems associated with a dog leg and key seats; the new methods to improve drilling performance; how to control hole angle and the factors to consider designing packed hole assembly and stabilizing tools; controlling directional drilling and directional profile; and planning and supervising the directional well. 
 
During this interactive course, participants will learn the subsurface serving including survey calculation and accuracy; the deflection tools and orientation and principles of directional drilling stabilization; the dog log severities and horizontal drilling; planning directional and horizontal well; the extended well reach and multi laterals, drill steam design and the factors determine optimal profile; applying better hole cleaning and enhancing hole for shake stability; and the proper calculation needed to optimize drilling such as torque and drag, cementing and well control calculations.
