Equipment and procedures involved with drilling oil and gas wells are described for those who are interested in understanding the drilling process regardless of the academic background. In this course, the overall drilling process is presented along with definitions and descriptions of drilling equipment and various components are discussed in greater detail with explanations of the basic science concepts which guide these processes. Subjects include descriptions of drill bits, directional drilling, drilling fluids, solids control, cementing, casing, well bore stability, well control, measurement-while-drilling techniques, stuck pipe, lost circulation, and well bore hydraulics. Some technology enhancements are included to improve understanding of drilling operations for all participants, with or without a science background. An understanding of clay mineralogy helps understand well bore instability and drilling fluids. A discussion of pressure and pressure effects helps explain many of the procedures and problems associated with drilling wells. Rocks behave differently under pressure and understanding this behavior helps understand drilling performance. The art and science of drilling are explained in simple terms. 

Production and processing operations and maintenance technicians, supervisors and managers, as well as other non-engineering personnel requiring a broad introduction to production and processing facilities, including the separation, conditioning and disposition of produced oil, gas and water; including the common operational difficulties that may arise, as well as the operational tactics used to resolve them.

Few problems threaten the petroleum businesses more than uncontrolled costs. The course will cover costs management from the basics to the most recent events and trends, using relevant exercises, timely case studies and role-playing techniques. This course is an introduction to Practical Cost Management techniques designed to help the participant better understand the underlying dynamics of cost, which will lead to better decision making concerning products and services, work flows, capital investments, as well as the day-to-day monitoring of the business.
