Drill String Optimization and Engineering Design

This course is well construction, drilling advanced level, drilling technique is one of the methodologies that have been widely implemented recently to improve the production of oil and gas wells, Several directional drilling technologies can be utilized to drill the horizontal wells, vary from the simple mud motor technology to Bottom Hole Assembly (BHA) with the advanced motorized rotary steerable system.

Who should attend :

Operator, drilling contractor and  engineers; drilling supervisors and superintendents.

What you will learn at the end of this course:

• Optimize your drill string inspection program using the latest industry standards
• Diagnose and mitigate vibration to reduce drill string damage and failure
• Understand the basis for industry software design tools, including torque and drag, casing wear, and hydraulics
• Understand and know drilling tools and operational practices to reduce both torque and drag and casing wear
• Design cost-effective BHAs and match them to your bit
• application experience analyzing common load cases for both near-vertical and high-angle situations: tension loads, torque loads, combined tension-torque loads, fatigue loads, buckling loads.
•  Performance properties of drill string components and how to apply design margins
• Physics of drill string failures and mechanical properties of drill string materials
