The traditional art of Etching, the grandfather of all printmaking methods. Create your own unique etching by artist/printmaker Evelyn Polk.

ABOUT THIS TRAINING COURSE This 5 full-day course is aimed at engineers and supervisors who already have a basic understanding of well construction methods but who would benefit from a more detailed knowledge of completion design. The course will concentrate on the important aspects of completion design and what makes a safe and efficient well. A common thread of practical examples will be used throughout the course in the form of a case study or 'red-thread' exercise. The case study is based around data all taken from a single field where those attending will work through all the basic issues of a completion design. The exercises associated with the case study is performed in the student's own time after each of the formal sessions. However, at the start of the next day, the case study is reviewed and discussed. The whole case study will continue through all sessions, with each element being reviewed at the start of the next session. There is no 'right' answer to the exercise - producing interesting discussions! The purpose of the course is not to go over specific equipment in detail. Teaching methods include presentations, videos, and animations and the case study. The course will cover: * Types and configurations of completions * The completion design process * Inflow performance, skin and formation damage * Perforating; selection, deployment and interface with rest of completion * Stimulation and impact on completion and flow performance with coverage of modern horizontal multifrac tools * Open hole, non-sand control completions including open hole packers and horizontal well clean up * Sand control; when do you need it, basic types and selection guidelines.

ABOUT THIS TRAINING COURSE This intensive 5 full-day has been designed as a separately bookable course comprising 3 days of Well Integrity (Basic) and 2 days of Advanced Well Integrity. The intensive 3 full-day course will equip the participants with a thorough knowledge of well integrity management and risk assessment in producing assets. Based on the regulatory requirements and using real examples and exercises from around the world, this represents best practice integrity management within the oil and gas industry. When to take action with a well is a critical decision, both from a safety and economic perspective. A consistent approach to decision-making provides certainty within the organisation, focusing effort, and spending wisely. The decision-making steps will be set out to ensure all critical aspects are captured consistently. Risk analysis approaches used by different organisations and examples of risk management and risk-ranking methods will be discussed. The 2 full-day course will deepen the participants' knowledge of well integrity management, and skills for designing, operating, and maintaining well equipment. The ultimate goal is to optimise productivity at the lowest Unit Operating Cost (UOC) and to maintain mechanical integrity throughout well life cycle. Well Integrity management is looked at in three distinct stages. The first stage is during the well design which includes material selection, engineering design, cement design, coating and inhibitors and cathodic protection. The second stage is monitoring the well during the life of the well, locating possible leaks and / or loss of metal. The last stage is to manage and control any well integrity issues using specialised products, services and techniques. Training Objectives 1. Well Integrity Training: Upon completion of this course, the participants will be able to: * Define the building blocks of a successful well integrity management system * Develop an approach to risk management, understand risk analysis and methods applied across the industry * How do we 'Make Wells Safer', learn about emerging technologies for well integrity problem diagnosis and new techniques available to 'repair' the issues * Execute the basic elements of well integrity management training for field operators * Evaluate well design elements that enhance or hinder well integrity status definition during the operating phase of the well life-cycle * Gain the demonstrable benefits of well integrity management from field experience * Review cases studies and discuss them to enhance knowledge and take on board lessons learned 2. Advanced Well Integrity: * Define well integrity well categorization based on compliance to the barrier policy outlined in the regulations and develop an approach to risk management * Discuss well-completion design and construction to create a 'integer' well with the lowest life cycle maintenance cost from a WIM perspective * Monitoring and surveillance of well integrity, focusing on barrier competence such as cementing and corrosion * Investigate and manage well integrity issues, causes & potential solutions * Understand repairs needed to address 'Loss of Well Operating Envelope' * Gain an overview understanding of Well Suspension & Well Abandonment * Discuss further case studies as well as conduct a post course test Target Audience Invaluable for production, operations, and integrity professionals involved in implementing & managing well integrity and seeking to improve performance. It is also essential for those who need to develop and implement such systems, or who have a general need to know and understand more about well integrity management. The course will also provide a fresh approach for senior professionals and managers. Designed for professionals in the oil and gas industry who are involved in the design, construction and operation of wells from the following disciplines: * Production Maintenance * Production Operations * Drilling Engineering * Safety engineering * Well Intervention * Well Integrity Engineering * Asset Management Course Level * Intermediate * Advanced Trainer Gordon Duncan has over 40 years of experience in the Oil & Gas industry. During that time, he has worked exclusively in well intervention and completions.
