Course description
Completions and Workovers - CAW
Completions and Workovers provides an integrated introduction to many facets of completion and intervention technology. The material progresses through each of the major design, diagnostic, and intervention technologies concluding with some common remedial measures and well abandonment. The course focuses on the practical aspects of each of the technologies, using design examples - successes and failures - to illustrate the key points of the design and the risks/uncertainties. The overall objectives of the course focus on delivering and maintaining well quality.
For the Virtual session in November, instructor-led sessions will be held through Webex from 0830-1200 CST (GMT-6) Monday-Thursday each week.
This course is also available virtually via PetroAcademy Blended Learning.
"A course with a high potential to apply its knowledge on the job." - Drilling Engineer, Spain
"Mucho conocimiento por porte del instructor claro con sus explicociones y uno bueno metoblologia. " - Petroleum Engineer, Bogota
"Instructor was excellent, I have been to several courses over the years and I found him to be one of the best both in terms of technical/ theoretical knowledge as well as course delivery. His wealth of knowledge and experiences have definitely been evident throughout the course." - Engineer, Australia
