Course Description

Introduction

Cementing operations are critical for well life as they constitute the foundations of any gas or oil well. Well Integrity is compromised, unless efficient cementing operations are carried out in every casing job. Like the foundations of a house, Cementing is the basis for an efficient well performance.

This 4-day intensive Cementing Technologies training course will highlight:

Overview of Primary Cementing
Cement Placement (Job Execution and Procedures)
Cement Calculations
Cement Additives and Mud Removal
Effective Cement Placement
Cement Job Evaluation
HSE and Cementing

Objectives

By the end of this GLOMACS training course, participants will learn to:

Calculate Volumes of Cement, Mix Water and Additives
Understand the critical parameters for any cementing operation
Select displacement rates for effective mud removal
When to select Two Stage Cementing
Select the proper Additives based on Well Conditions
Read and perform Interpretation of Cement Bond Logs
Understand Special Cement Systems
Select Casing Hardware for successful Cementing Operations

Training Methodology

This online training course will utilize a variety of proven online learning techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension, retention of the information presented. The training course is conducted Online via an Advanced Virtual Learning Platform in the comfort of any location of your choice
