The 5-Day Drilling Optimization Operations Program
Course Description
This course is designed to address how to optimize drilling performance from all aspects of the drilling process. The course will address bit performance diagnostics, technical limits, and the way that a real time data analysis can reveal drilling performance shortcomings and safety issues.
The Training Course Will Highlight ?
