Well Construction Engineering
Course Description
This course draws from the experience and strengths of several instructors to deliver a unique course to the drilling professionals. The course is focused on engineering aspects of well construction from the planning stage to well completion. This course is essentially a recap of engineering analysis tools and methods needed by the drilling professionals (operation and engineers) to plan and execute the well construction focusing on safety and sound best practices. The topics discussed in the course include planning wells with predictive methods of drilling windows, casing design, and followed by real time well constructions and addressing issues related to drilling problems such as losses, well control, stuck pipe.

Drilling Engineers, Senior Drilling Engineers, Drilling Supervisors, Workover Engineers, Petroleum Engineers, Completion Engineers, Tool Pushers, Reservoir and Senior Reservoir Engineers, Geologists, Production Engineers, Wellsite Engineers, Foremen, Industry Personnel
