Workover Optimization & Horizontal Well Intervention 2014LBCG
With unconventional wells typically depleting 65-85% in the first year and another 20% in the subsequent years, there is a growing impetus to optimize and innovate workover and well intervention operations to improve the life of existing wells and restore production to maximize the recovery of costly unconventional wells.
Innovations in coiled tubing, conveyance, eline and logging tools and the introduction of techniques for re-completions may ensure that depleting wells can be recovered and production maximized but such operations are not without significant cost implications and technical challenges. Unpredictable complications throughout production including damaged casing, blocked perforations and broken and lost equipment downhole incur great risk, come at a high cost to repair and can, of course, result in complete failure of the well. Additionally, the economic viability of re-completions operations is still relatively unknown and the technical challenges of re-fracturing are complex.
Operators therefore need to carefully consider the economic gamble in repairing a depleting well or potential in-fill drilling operations against the cost of drilling a new well. A balance must be struck between optimizing the cost and speed of workovers and remedial well intervention, while increasing the long-term effectiveness and safety of operations to reduce the economic risk of repairing wellbores and adequately extend the production time between workovers.
The Workover Optimization & Horizontal Well Intervention 2014 is the only E&P led forum to provide technical talks and case study based strategies on effective optimization and cost reduction of both workovers and remedial well interventions. Senior E&P presenters will examine techniques for optimizing plug drillouts, cleanouts, coiled tubing interventions, casing repairs and fishing and evaluate how to enable re-completions in depleting wells. The content of the detailed two-day agenda has been created entirely by workover and intervention professional across American unconventional oil and gas operators.
The Course also covers both successful and unsuccessful Case Histories in HPHT drilling operations from around the globe as reported by Operators & Drilling Contractors. New technologies available to the Industry are also covered.

The oil & gas industry has had a volatile ride for the last decade. Oil prices have been fluctuating between $30 and $130/bbl and with Shale oil appearing as a serious competitor and LNG positioning itself more as the transitionary fuel of the future. Of course we never knew what we do not know but it seems to be getting more unclear what the future holds, especially for the oil & gas industry. Uncertainty seems to rule, and turbulence of our business environment seems to be reaching a new tipping point year after year, and the end of common strategic planning is in sight.
Distributed Control System (DCS) Applications, Selection & TroubleshootingpetroEDGE
Since the first Distributed Control System was installed in the late 1970’s, the concept of DCS has swept alternative control technologies from the field. The substantial growth, in the construction of plants in the traditional heavy process industries, such as power generation, refining, oil and gas, water and petrochemicals, is driving significant growth in the utilization of DCS. The broad architecture of a solution involves either a direct connection to physical equipment, such as switches, pumps and valves or connection via a fieldbus communication system.
This course will familiarize engineers, designers and construction personnel with the layout and design procedures and practices involved in the choice of piping systems and their associated supporting equipment. It will also address in detail, common pipeline components such as pumps, compressors and heat exchangers and will cover their mechanical performance and limitations in different piping arrangements. This course will give participants the background required to complete and successfully apply typical equipment layout and piping arrangements.
Advanced Heat Exchanger Design, Inspection and TroubleshootingpetroEDGE
The design, performance and operation of modern heat exchangers requires an understanding of the principles of heat transfer and fluid flow, coupled with access to numerically based techniques and supporting data. This course will review heat transfer fundamentals as applied to tubular and plate devices.
Liquid & Gas Flowmetering & Custody MeasurementpetroEDGE
This course will familiarize process, instrumentation and custody transfer engineers with the procedures and practices involved in the choice of flowmetering systems and their associated supporting equipment. It will address these points in relation to both single- and multi-phase flows and will give guidance on the optimum commercially available flowmeters through a detailed comparison of their relative merits. Flowmeter calibration is crucial to these topics.
The course also covers the related issues of level and tank measurement as well as lease automatic custody transfer and truck custody transfer, leak detection, loss control and monitor and control production losses.
This intensive five-day course is designed to provide participants with a thorough knowledge of downhole sand exclusion equipment and the operational procedures required for converting a drilled well into an efficient and safe producer. It follows a practical approach for the various types of sand control equipment, specific applications, the preparation and the final execution and installation of the equipment.
Webinar: Scenario planning for long term decision makingpetroEDGE
When developing a strategy or making investment decisions, there will be many uncertainties that need assessment. These can range from cost and timing issues to broader questions at the macro level, for example political, regulatory or social developments.
A way to get to grips with the latter category is by using ‘scenario analysis’, sometimes called ‘scenario thinking’ or ‘scenario planning’. A scenario in this context is an alternative future: a coherent narrative of a set of developments, trends and events that could unfold within some defined business environment.
A decision to drill an exploration well with the objective to find a new oil or gas field must be based on a sound assessment of the prospect’s risks and of the volumes: what is the chance that a well will find hydrocarbons, and how much could it be? Risk and volume assessments form the basis for decisions to drill a well or not, and as such it is the link between subsurface evaluation and the business aspects of the petroleum industry. This course explains how risks and volumes can be assessed in a realistic and pragmatic manner, based on a sound understanding of the geological details of the prospect as well as of its regional geological setting and our play understanding.
This intensive 2 x 2 week program has been put together to cover Advanced Well Engineering topics. The program intends to uplift the knowledge and skills for engineers, who are or will be directly involved in well and completion design. It will also benefit staff that are or will be working as a member of a day-to-day operations team.
The courses present advanced concepts of drilling and completion operations, plus post-completion enhancement (workovers). Participants will learn to visualize and troubleshoot what is happening downhole, discover what can be accomplished and optimized, and learn how drilling and completions can alter reservoir performance.
The Rig Safety Awareness course features ten e-learning modules, designed for new technical and petroleum engineers going offshore for the first time. The modules will require between 30 to 40 minutes study each.
Each module will also include assessment questions that relate to module’s content. Each e-learning module will be supported by four 2D ‘Walkthrough Events’ where the user is stepped through a series of safety failures that leed to an incident occurrence.
The main objective of this course is to acquire practical skills and tools on how to set up an asset depletion plan through a focused well and reservoir management approach. It is common in many asset teams to have an unclear picture of what future actions should be taken to the different wells and reservoirs as they deplete. In many cases, these actions are reactive rather than proactive. This is mainly due to a lack of a well-defined reservoir management and depletion plan or strategy.
This course presents you with the knowledge and tools to design a depletion plan. Such plan would be consistent with the increased understanding of the reservoir behavior obtained from focused reservoir management. The depletion plan is a comprehensive set of actions that the asset team designs to identify a way forward for every well by identifying future workovers, remedial work, gas lift methods, all the way to well abandonment. And for every reservoir by identifying underdeveloped areas, infill drilling targets, secondary recovery or IOR/EOR applications.
Major changes in 2020 for the global refining industrypetroEDGE
Refiners generally have incentives to upgrade their
refineries, by adding conversion units to produce greater
amounts of clean products (e.g., gasoline, diesel) and
lesser amounts of fuel oil. All else being equal, refiners
with conversion achieve higher margins than simple
refineries without conversion. However, it usually takes at
least four to five years from initial planning to actual startup
of a conversion project.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

HPHT WELL ENGINEERING
25 – 28 April 2016 | Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
COURSE AGENDA
The following subjects will be addressed during the course
CHARACTERISTICS OF HPHT WELLS
The industry definition of an HPHT well and examines the
characteristics that make HPHT wells challenging. A review of
why HPHT wells fail is considered in order to focus attention
on the key differences between HPHT and conventional wells.
CASING DESIGN IN HPHT WELLS
A review of the principals of casing design with a focus on the
effects of temperature on casing design criteria, such as load
and yield strength changes.
The course will review uniaxial and triaxial pipe strength, the
implications of manufacturing standards and tolerances as
per ISO 10400 and the impact of downhole environmental
conditions. Participants will develop an understanding of the
how connections are tested using ISO 13679 and how to select
suitably pre-qualified connections for use in a well.
The importance of casing wear and its impact on casing design
and well integrity are discussed. Participants will master the
process of detailed casing design, identifying relevant load
conditions for the lifetime of the well and producing an
optimised casing scheme that can withstand triaxial burst and
biaxial collapse loading under downhole conditions. HPHT
Service Load design challenges such buckling and trapped
annular pressures will be addressed as well as managing the
impact of corrosion and casing wear.
DRILLING FLUIDS AND CEMENT
Temperature has a profound effect on drilling fluid rheology
while the high gradients required to balance high bottom hole
pressures create challenges to carrying capacity and barite
sag. High temperatures can also compromise drilling fluid
additives. This section addresses the selection and design of
drilling fluids for HPHT wells including the choice between
water based and oil based fluid systems. Thermal impact on
rheology and additive stability is discussed as is rig fluid
system design including shakers and mud coolers. Thermal
impact on cement slurries and cement placement practices
are also addressed.
RIG AND EQUIPMENT SELECTION
A detailed review of the essential requirements of the rig and
drilling equipment is provided which covers the rig, fluids
control equipment and well control equipment, and
instrumentation. Particular attention will be given to
qualification and testing of BOP equipment and the sizing and
performance assessment of surface gas handling equipment.
FINGERPRINTING
The impact of temperature in fluid density and volume
downhole means that conventional well control signals are
less reliable in HPHT operations. It is critical to understand the
normal behaviour of a well such that abnormal behaviour can
be rapidly identified and reacted to. Proactive information
gathering or “fingerprinting” prior to and while drilling an
HPHT section achieves this. The array of data to be analysed
and modern mud logging techniques that can be used are
addressed.
WELL CONTROL
Comprehensive knowledge and sound skills in the principals
and practisers of well control are critical to HPHT operations.
This section addresses pore pressure prediction and narrow
margin environments and their profound impact on kick
tolerance in the region of the transition zone. The origin of
abnormal pressure, and an explanation for narrow pressure
margins between pore and fracture pressure is covered. The
causes of kicks and kick detection are addressed including
early kick detection technology. Well control procedures to
combat influxes taken with the drillstring on bottom, off
bottom and with the drillstring out of the hole are reviewed.
These will include driller’s method, volumetric method,
bullheading, combined volumetric and stripping method and
snubbing.
KICKS AND LOSSES
Given the narrow margin between formation pressure and
fracture pressure in HPHT wells, the situation may arise where
there are simultaneous influx and losses leading to
underground flows. The causes and treatments for
underground flows are described and explained.
TEAMWORK AND TRAINING
Competence, teamwork and communications between well
delivery team members is critical to ensure the safe drilling
of HPHT wells. This section examines how rig team
communication and performance on critical wells can be
enhanced by processes such as “Drilling the Well on a
Simulator”.
HPHT WELL TESTING
This section addresses the surface and downhole equipment
required to temporarily complete and test flow HPHT wells.
Operating practises to address the challenges of HHPT well
testing are discussed.

“This was a good introduction to some complexity of HPHT Wells and made me realise the time effort it take to plan
these wells” Drilling Engineer, Oil Search
“Good general overview of the things to consider in the early stages of HPHT well planning” Drilling Superintendent,
Talisman Malaysia
HPHT DRILLING PRACTISES
High reliability well delivery requires the implementation of
drilling practises that can mitigate problems associated with
high mud gradients/mud rheology, narrow margin
environments and thermal effects. Such practises must
address pressure limitations of conventional mud circulation
systems such that the well can be safely closed in with high
surface pressures at any time. This section addresses HPHT
processes and practises and introduces the concept of the
“Safe Drilling Checklist”.
MANAGED PRESSURE DRILLING (MPD)
MPD offers solutions to a number of the challenges of HPHT
well delivery, specifically the narrow margin between pore
and fracture pressure through the transition zone. Some
Operators require all “dry BOP” HPHT wells to be drilled with
MDP in place while recent riser developments are seeing
subsea and deepwater HPHT wells using MPD equipment too.
This section addresses the benefits of MPD operations and
examines the equipment and practises for its implementation
in HPHT wells.
BOTTOM HOLE PRESSURE MANAGEMENT
The effect of temperature and pressure on drilling fluid
density, the importance of ECD management, and use of PWD
is explained. The importance of operational procedures to
minimise surge and swab effects is emphasised. Kick
tolerance and gas behaviour is discussed in terms of the
effects of temperature and the importance of monitoring gas
while drilling is explained. Ballooning, breathing and
supercharging will be explained.
HPHT WELL EVALUATION
This section reviews the temperature and pressure limitations
of conventional logging tools and examines the equipment
and operating practises now available to evaluate wells in
hostile conditions. Evolving technologies including ahead of
the bit measurements and the use of real time petrophysical
data to update pore pressure prediction models and optimise
drilling fluid gradients will be discussed.
HPHT WELL INTEGRITY AND FAILURE MODES
This section will address well integrity problems associated
with HPHT Well Delivery and Production. A number of case
studies will address problems encountered during the drilling
phase, reservoir compaction during production as well as
zonal isolation prior to and after well suspension and
abandonment.
