The objective of the extended reach drilling course is to provide sufficient knowledge to experienced drilling personnel to allow them to balance the risks related to planning and executing a challenging high angle, horizontal, extended reach or complex wells. Importantly, the key risk factors and mitigation measures for stuck pipe avoidance from a well design, planning and operational execution perspective are covered in depth.

This course provides significant detail on key well planning challenges and proven success factors, allowing delegates multiple opportunities to review and assess real-world case studies. This course is relevant for all high angle drilling projects, particularly in challenging environments.

Getting your team up to speed on why things are executed in a specific way along with the risks and success factors associated with the drilling plan, invariably leads to better results and reduces instances of the “wrong” reaction to a problem. In a complex well scenario with a high day rate issues can quickly get out of hand, leading to significant cost impact on the drilling program and a reduction in overall project value in NPT terms.
