Introduction:
The oil and gas well integrity design, analysis, and management training course in directional drilling teaches everything related to drilling a directional well. Participants will learn about wellbore positioning, how to perform survey calculations and familiarize themselves with survey tools and measurements. Positioning the well inside the reservoir requires participants to understand survey quality and reservoir target sizing. As drilling technology advances quickly, in this part, the training participants will learn the latest technologies in directional drilling and what is best for their wells.
Directional well requires extensive planning. In this oil and gas well integrity design, analysis, and management course, participants will understand the different engineering practices and calculations that go into directional wells, from well planning to Bottom Hole Assembly (BHA) design to hydraulics and torque and drag calculations. The last part talks about the execution stage, where participants will learn how to drill a well directionally with both a steerable motor and Rotary Steerable Systems (RSS) to position the well in the sweet spot of the reservoir.
