Module Objectives

أهداف المادة الدراسية

Class Objective:

The objective of this class is to provide students with a solid understanding of the fundamental principles of well control. By the end of the course, students will be able to identify the causes of kicks and effectively utilize kick indicators. They will learn the procedures for handling kicks and gain knowledge about various methods of well control, including general kill methods, constant bottom hole pressure kill methods, the driller's method, the wait and weight method, and volumetric well control. Students will also become familiar with well control equipment and techniques for kick detection, including the challenges specific to deviated and horizontal wells. Additionally, the class will cover the concept of kick tolerance. The computer lab component will involve utilizing the WELLPLAN software from Landmark_Halliburton to gain practical experience in well control planning and analysis. Overall, students will develop the necessary skills and knowledge to effectively manage well control situations in the oil and gas industry.

Module Learning Outcomes

مخرجات التعلم للمادة الدراسية

By the end of this class on the Fundamental Principles of Well Control, students will be able to:

Identify and explain the causes of kicks during drilling operations.
Demonstrate a thorough understanding of kick indicators and their significance in detecting kicks.
Implement proper shut-in procedures in response to a kick occurrence.
Describe and compare various methods of well control, including general kill methods, constant bottom hole pressure kill methods, the driller's method, the wait and weight method, and volumetric well control.
Familiarize themselves with the well control equipment used in managing kicks.
Apply effective kick detection techniques, particularly in the context of deviated and horizontal wells.
Evaluate and determine the kick tolerance for different well scenarios.
Utilize the WELLPLAN software from Landmark_Halliburton to perform well control planning and analysis in computer lab exercises.
Analyze and solve well control problems using critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
Demonstrate an understanding of the importance of well control in maintaining operational safety and preventing blowouts in the oil and gas industry.

These learning outcomes will ensure that students have a comprehensive understanding of well control principles, techniques, and their practical applications in the industry.
