Drilling Technology For New Engineers

Date: 26-29 February -2024 | Location: London

Course Duration: 4 Days 

Designed for: Drilling personnel who wish to enhance their understanding of the drilling process. This course is designed to provide participants with a thorough understanding of procedures used to drill a well and problems that can be encountered.

Course Objectives:

By completing this course, the trainee will have a better understanding of the drilling equipment and its operation through mini version of CPS Virtual Drilling Simulator.

Our instructor will provide complete description for the drill site equipment and rig components including: Drilling Rig Structure, Hoisting System, Top Drive Operation, Stand Pipe Handling, Mud System, Mud Pumps, Well Control Equipment Operation and nearly every essential piece of equipment used in the drilling operation.

Be able to interact with drillers and drilling companies knowing you have the basic fundamental knowledge of the drilling processes.
