Course Description

INTRODUCTION

In the development of a hydrocarbon reservoir, many wells are drilled and required to be completed, to allow the structure to be depleted. However, the drilling and completion operations are crucial to the long-term viability of the wells in meeting the specified objectives.

The design and completion of both production and injection wells are required to satisfy several objectives including:

  • Provision of optimum production/injection performance
  • Ensure safety
  • Maximize the integrity and reliability of the completion over the envisaged life of the completed well
  • Minimize the total costs per unit volume of fluid produced or injected, i.e.
  • Minimize the costs of initial completion, maintaining production and remedial measures

This GLOMACS training course on Well Completion Design will feature:

  • The main functions of completion
  • Developing a high-level completion strategy for wells in a variety of situations
  • Select tubing, packers, and completion flow control equipment
  • Understand different sand control techniques and their application

Objectives

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

  • Evaluate for a given reservoir scenario the bottom hole completion options and make a recommendation based on well integrity and reservoir management requirements
  • Identify, evaluate and recommend functional capability of completion strings for a variety of situations
  • Describe the purpose and generic operating principles for major completion equipment components
  • Identify limitation of well completion schematically designs and potential failure mechanisms / operational problems with equipment
  • Assess well safety requirements and capabilities inherent in well design
  • Describe the integration of the various stages of completing a well
  • List and flow chart a general procedure to run a completion string
  • Describe the requirements to pressure test and retain well control throughout the completion process
  • Define the need for full and accurate reporting and records to be kept

Training Methodology

This GLOMACS Well Completion Design training course will utilise a variety of proven adult learning techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension and retention of the information presented. The daily workshops will be highly interactive and participative.

Organisational Impact

The organisation will gain in sending their employees to attend this GLOMACS training course, the following:

  • Reduction in the cost of the well and the proper selection of production string
  • Extending the well life and control it, achieve the optimum production
  • Ensuring the well integrity and avoiding all risks

Personal Impact

  • Obtain integrating knowledge of well completion design
  • Hone their knowledge and get the self-confidence in designing proper completion
  • Get the latest technology in well operations
  • Solving and avoiding the problems which impact on the optimum production, and well integrity
