Directional Drilling Fundamentals 

 * Applications and limitations
 * Algebra and trigonometry review
 * Terminology, well objectives, and target definition
 * Positioning and coordinate systems  

On the first day participants will be given an overview of the applications of
directional technology and its range of application.  There are many instances
where wells have been placed in the wrong location because of misunderstandings
between subsurface teams and rig positioning teams. These mistakes happen
because often the teams are unaware of the complexity of cartography and
positioning systems. This course will detail the basics of different mapping
systems and will teach the participants how to avoid these common mistakes.

Day 2

Well Steering and Anti-Collision Management

 * Survey calculation methods
 * Anti-collision and trajectory management
 * Surveying tools
 * MWD, LWD and mudlogging  

Directional drilling is too often seen as the science of steering the well to
intersect the geological target, however it is arguably more important that
directional drilling allows us to avoid colliding with existing wells. The poor
understanding of the subject of anti-collision and the nature of the uncertainty
of wellbore position leads, each year to catastrophic well to well collisions
that cost millions of dollars to repair and clean up, but more importantly put
the lives of the drilling crews at risk. The second day will develop in
participants an understanding of each of the fundamental aspects of both
steering to intersect a subsurface target and steering to avoid existing wells

Day 3

Wellbore Deflection 

 * Downhole drilling tools and deflection methods
 * Drilling motors and bit overview
 * BHA design and considerations
 * Rotary steerable systems

On day three participants will gain an understanding of the basics of wellbore
deflection and rotary steerable systems. Techniques like directional jetting and
the use of openhole whip stocks, that may seem consigned to history are now
returning to enable complex and high technology wells to be successfully
drilled. Crowded mature platforms and high angle ERD wells pose unique
challenges that will be explored.  The types of rotary steerable technology will
be introduced and their applications and limitations will be discussed to allow
the students to make informed decisions on the choice of steering system.

Day 4

Well Profile Designing 

 * Directional well path design
 * Horizontal well planning and calculations
 * Drill string design
 * Torque, drag, shocks and vibrations    

Day four will look at the multiple options that are open to the well planner and
examines the significance of each of the choices that can be made in the design
of the profile of the well. The participants will be invited to look at the
systematic way in which each section of a well must be planned and they will see
the pitfalls of poor well planning.  The participants will also be invited to
consider some of the differences in the physics of high angle drilling and then
to use this knowledge to understand why assemblies designed for one hole section
will not work in another.

Day 5

Potential Problems in Well Drilling

 * Hole cleaning
 * Geological considerations in ERD wells
 * Well profile, well path, and trajectory design
 * TAML junction definitions and their applicability to multilateral design
 * Multilateral well planning and drilling operations 
 * Directional drilling problems and solutions     

On the last day, participants will look at the problems of geological
positioning and the technique of geo-steering.  The principles of multilateral
drilling will be introduced and some of the most common multilateral types will
be covered.  The day will conclude with an exploration of some of the most
common problems encountered in directional drilling and a summary of the
material that has been covered over the five day course.   

 

Drilling professionals and support staff who have a need to better understand
and apply Directional Drilling concepts in design and operations of directional
and multilateral wells.

Directional surveying
Well location calculation methods
Deflection methods
Anti-collision concepts
LWD and mudlogging use in directional drilling
Bottomhole assemblies and drill string tools used in directional drilling
Concepts of torque and drag and shocks and vibrations
Multilateral types
Multilateral planning and proceedures
Directional drilling problems

Participants should have basic drilling engineering and well site operations
experience. Prior exposure to directional drilling is recommended, but not
required. Participants should also have good mathematic skills, particularly in
trigonometry.
