Course details
Aim of the course:
Compare drilling operations both onshore and offshore and understand the differences between the various types of rigs and platforms.
Distinguish the various components of the drill string: hoisting and rotating systems and pipe handling equipment; bit types and their design and application; the mud circulation process and system; the variety of drilling fluids and well hydraulics; casing and cementing procedures; directional drilling processes and techniques; borehole surveying.
Appraise mudlogging services, including the collection and analysis of ditch cuttings and lag time estimation; depth and bit parameter measurements; the collection, analysis, and integration of gas readings; and the wider role of mudlogging in safety monitoring and drilling engineering support.
Analyze how ditch cuttings are sampled, described, reported, logged, and evaluated for lithological evaluation and hydrocarbon potential.
Compare conventional coring and sidewall coring processes, procedures and evaluation techniques.
Distinguish the acquisition, processing, and basic interpretation of wireline from LWD logs and their integration with other wellsite-derived geological data.
