IWCF Drilling Well Control Supervisors (Level 4)
Course Description
The IWCF Level 4 Drilling Well Control course is essential training for those working in well site supervisory roles and for office-based personnel that are primarily involved in the operational decision-making process and/or well design. The course aims to build on Level 3 course content (including kick detection and shut-in) and focus on more complex aspects of well control and well kill methodology. The aim of this course is to provide the knowledge, understanding and practical skills necessary to apply safe well control practices in surface and subsea installations. This course is designed to meet the requirements of IWCF. The Level 4 (Supervisor) course is designed for anyone working in a supervisory role and involved in the well design and operational decision-making process of drilling, such as a Drilling Supervisor, Superintendent or Company Man, Tool Pusher, OIM, or Rig Manager.
