    Drilling Optimization

    This course will train drilling engineers in the benchmarking, identification, application, and implementation of drilling optimization techniques.  These techniques will cover both offset and historical well data, as well as real-time drilling data.  The intention of this class will be to give participants in this course knowledge to apply well optimization techniques in well engineering, drilling fluid engineering and well construction engineering.

    Drilling engineers Interested in drilling optimization techniques.

    Day 1 - What is Drilling Optimization?

    Day 2 - Introduction to Probability and Risk

    Day 3 - Risk Management,  Drilling Mechanics and Shock and Vibrations

    Day 4 - Total ROP Enhancing Techniques and Technology

    Day 5 - Well Design, Execution and Optimization and Continuous Improvement Processes


    Good overall knowledge of well construction processes, drilling engineering, as well as simple time and statistical analysis techniques (e.g. mean, median, mode, probabilities, percentages).
