Drilling Optimization & Well Planning

Drilling Optimization & Well Planning
Summary

Detailed well planning and optimization at the rig site are essential in the present business environment. Drilling time is costly, and non-productive drilling time is the costliest of them all, and reduction of this time, through the adequate definition and monitoring of KPIs, data management, quantifying uncertainty in the subsurface, risk assessment and use of modern drilling technologies and trends. 

Oil and Gas industry is at the point where the rise of fracking and enhanced oil recovery has stabilized the price at the lower levels, no matter that several large oil producers are practically squeezed out of business, which requires the well engineers to reduce the non-productive drilling time to be able to reduce the production cost.

This course puts all the pieces together for an integrated systems view of well planning and construction Technical concepts are reviewed and specific design steps and tools are used for the key planning processes of casing design, drilling fluid, hydraulics, bit selection / running conditions and cementing program Case studies are analyzed and worked as team projects, and participants are encouraged to bring case studies to class Participants leave the course with a thorough understanding of the entire well planning, implementation and analysis process, and specific design processes and checklists.
