Well Construction: Drilling Engineering

Description:

This course introduces the basics of well construction and drilling operations. The objective of this course is to give an overview on all the techniques applied for the well construction which include well planning, rig sizing and section, casing design, Drillstring Design, drilling fluids, drill bits, directional drilling, cementing, drilling problems, well control and drilling economics. Emphasis will be on the conceptual design and detailed engineering design calculations involved in planning a well.
