الأهداف
You will learn how to
- Calibrate a mud logger’s gas unit curve
- Interpret gas unit curves
- Determine pore pressure
- Select the correct nozzle sizes and flow rate to make the fluid strike the bottom of the hole with the greatest force possible or the greatest power available
- Select drilling fluid yield point needed to clean the vertical portion of the well.
- Extend the life of drill bits and have the maximum drilling rate by determining the flounder point of a roller cone or PDC bit.
- Avoid poor cementing jobs by creating a thin, slick, compressible filter cake.
- Decrease vibration which seriously impacts PDC bit performance by eliminating drilled solids.
- Arrange equipment for a proper PIT
- Read Pressure Integrity charts
- Evaluate dull bits to select the best next bit
- Understand well bore instability

من ينبغى أن يحضر
Experienced people on drilling rigs who want to drill cheaper. Specifically, Drilling Rig Personnel, Drilling Engineers, Drilling Rig Supervisors, Tool Pushers, Drilling Managers, and Service Company Personnel. This course is NOT recommended for inexperienced personnel or people not directly involved with actual drilling operations. You should have completed the Basic Drilling Technology Course or have several years of drilling experience to gain the most from the course.
