WELL INTEGRITY TECHNOLOGIES
Details :
This highly-interactive training course covers the main
aspects of Well Integrity, starting with the construction of the well. Keeping
the well operation within the safety envelope is critical for any oil & gas
operator (well integrity). Well integrity technologies, focusing on monitoring
problematic wells, diagnosing the causes of those problems, and implementing
techniques to mitigate and/or repair those problems in order to keep the wells
operating safely and avoid release of hydrocarbons to environment.
This training course will highlight:
- Well
integrity technologies
- Focus
on monitoring problematic wells
- Diagnose
of causes of those problems
- Implementing
techniques to mitigate and/or repair those problems
By the end of this training course, participants will
feel confident in their understanding of:
- The
fundamentals of well integrity monitoring, and all implications on
production efficiency
- How to
monitor and identify well integrity problems and technical procedures
available for their mitigation
This training course is suitable to a wide range of
professionals but will greatly benefit:
- Petroleum

- Production
Engineers
- Drilling
Engineers
- Completion

This training course
will be presented using properly designed slides, some with animation and
several videos on relevant issues. A printed manual containing all the slides
and/or electronic from in PDF will be delivered to each attendant. Teaching
methods include also calculations on related issues. Several examples of SAP
(Sustainable Annulus Pressures) investigation will be presented.
