Advanced Drilling Technologies (DRI14)
- To be announced for 2019
Description
This course provides a comprehensive overview of the principles and practices of advanced drilling engineering, enabling participants to decide which technology is most appropriate for their business.
It is an introduction to advanced drilling topics such as High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) drilling, modern drilling technologies (i.e. casing drilling, unconventional drilling methods), special well design, drilling problems and their solutions. Advanced drilling techniques such as casing drilling or coiled tubing drilling are also covered as are tools and techniques used in casing or tubing drilling such as surface equipment, bottomhole assemblies (BHA), etc.
Course Level: Skill / Advanced
Instructor: Catalin Teodoriu

Designed for you, if you are...
- A drilling, production or operations engineer, field supervisor, manager or technical support personnel with a good understanding of the principles of drilling engineering
How we build your confidence
You will be guided through planning and evaluating drillstring design and learn how to perform calculations associated with well tubular design and stuck pipe situations.Non-conventional aspects of drilling will be also covered within this class, guiding you through shale gas drilling, gas hydrates drilling and coring as well as modern casing and coiled tubing drilling aspects.
At the end optimisation concepts will be presented, helping you to learn how to take decisions that could save time and increase the safety of drilling operations.
