Introduction

This course is primarily designed for drilling, production and completion engineers and supervisors needing a practical understanding and an appreciation of well completion design and operation, well stimulation and work over planning. It explains how completion configurations are varied to meet well objectives and to maximize well productivity. Design concepts and methods are presented together with downhole tools and their selection criteria.

Completion types and design for vertical, horizontal and multilateral wells, design and optimization of tubing based on tubing performance analysis (Inflow performance analysis, liquid and gas hold up during fluid flow and forces on tubing), downhole equipment, tubing accessories, wellhead equipment including completion. Also fluid flow through perforations and perforation techniques; communication tests; wireline operations; reservoir stimulation; and hydraulic fracture treatment design and optimization are extensively reviewed. Local case studies are also provided.

This course is talking in details about casing, tubing accessorize and completion types. Also completion equipment design, operations and well productivity. To enhance the participants’ knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary to understand well completion technology.

Objective

• Enhance the participant’s knowledge skills to understand the well completion.
• Improve the awareness of types wells completions, operations and    subsurface equipment
• Apply the latest techniques in well completion design and operation
• Optimize tubing dimensions for maximum production and estimate the pressure losses in tubing for different rock & fluid properties
• Use different subsurface completion equipment and accessories and select packers and packer settings
• Operate the well head equipment properly and calculate geometries and dimensions casing and tubing hangers
• Identify the different special consideration for horizontal and multilateral completions on wellbore, tubing and casing configuration
• Recognize the components of perforation of oil and gas wells such as completion fishing operations, well stimulation and fracturing, well testing, and well integrity
• Carryout the various procedures of communication tests
• Practice the process of wireline operations
• Discuss the elements of reservoir stimulation and increase the knowledge in understanding of stress and rock properties involved in the simulation techniques

Audience

This course is designed for Oil filed Technologists, project managers, plant managers, plant supervisors, Production Supervisors, technical staff, Operators and Technicians and contractor personnel involved in the production of oil and natural gas. The greatest benefit arises from discussing the underlying principles of the various processes and the cause of the common operating problems. You will also be able to see which processes are available to you to de-bottleneck or modify existing processes. The practical techniques and examples provide useful insights that are valuable in daily operations. Participants are encouraged to introduce any operating problems they have encountered for group discussion.

Methodology

Our courses are highly interactive, typically taking a case study approach that we have found to be an effective method of fostering discussions and transferring knowledge. Participants will learn by active participation during the program through the use of individual exercises, questionnaires, team exercises, training videos and discussions of “real life” issues in their organizations.
The material has been designed to enable delegates to apply all of the material with immediate effect back in the workplace.

Fees

$6,750 per attendee including training material/handouts, morning/afternoon coffee breaks and Lunch.
