DIRECTIONAL AND HORIZONTAL DRILLING CERTIFICATION

COURSE OVERVIEW

This training course will increase the participant’s understanding of the operations carried out by directional drillers and how directional and horizontal wells are planned and optimized. The basic applications and techniques for multilateral wells will be covered and participants will receive instructions on planning and evaluating horizontal wells based on the objectives of the horizontal well, and how to perform the proper planning for directional and horizontal wells.

COURSE OBJECTIVES

AT THE END OF THIS COURSE DELEGATES WOULD BE ABLE TO:

• Interpret TVD, polar, rectangular coordinates, dogleg severity, and the problems associated with it
• Interpret torque and drag and what factors affect those in the drilling process
• Understand the main concepts associated with well-path planning
• Recommend suitable measures to mitigate operational issues related to directional and horizontal drilling
• Understand main concepts associated with good construction of multilateral wells

Who Should Attend?

Technicians, site managers, supervisors, superintendents, and engineers will be involved in geothermal, water, storage, or oil drilling operations.

Delivery Method: This will include combined lectures, discussions, group exercises, case studies, and illustrations. Participants will also understand the theoretical and practical knowledge of the topic.
