Drilling & Well Construction

Managed Pressure Drilling, Well Design and Application

Introduction

This course advocates an engineered approach to planning and executing MPD projects. Geological fundamentals are reviewed to rationalize the drivers for MPD application. Well design, planning, and training are emphasized as critical factors to successful implementation. Participants are exposed to a variety of emerging application methods and equipment. Advanced hydraulic software models


Objectives

By the end of this course participants will learn how to:

  • Evaluate uncertain geological data to determine open hole operating pressure profile limits
  • Develop fluid and hydraulics programs using advanced calculation models
  • Select best MPD application from a variety of application choices;
  • Specify specialized equipment for the appropriate MPD method;
  • Maintain bottom hole pressure (BHP) within close tolerances using MPD control techniques
  • Overcome pressure transients and problems to safely manage MPD operations
