Course Description

Applied Well Control-II is one of the important faculty elective courses on the way to render perfection for the students of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering Department. The course will supply the students with detailed information about the following topics: Comparison of Well Control Methods, Special Well Control Techniques, High Pressure Formations, Casing Program, Well Control Equipment and Job Descriptions for Drilling Crew. Establishment of safety and cost balance in drilling and well completion applications will be emphasized. The internationally recognized American Petroleum Institute (API) Standards will govern the entire topics to be forwarded to the students. Theoretical information will be accompanied by the relevant equipment details, while the students will be supplied with the visual simulation programs and techniques.
