Course Description
The course emphasizes the practical application of casing design principles and theory from a basic level through to advance. It examines the nomenclature of casing design, the manufacturing processes, materials and properties, the theory of burst, collapse and axial loadings, design policies and procedures, API specifications with review of the theory behind these and their limitations, connections and special cases such as HP/HT and sour service.
The course examines the non-API principles of tri-axial design and how this improves upon the limitations of API. Kick tolerance and its impact on casing seat selection is considered in detail along with the processes of documentation and audit. Substantial emphasis is placed on worked examples beginning with basic practical problems and culminating in a full casing design for a typical well. This is approached from first principles and demands extensive use of mathematics.
