Design Process for Completion and Workovers

This skill module focuses upon three main work products of a typical completion or workover design – the proposed well sketch, the proposed procedure, and then the underlying basis of design. In addition, field/rig morning reports are introduced and reviewed in view of the original design plans.

Target Audience

Graduates or engineers with experience, engaged in drilling operations, production operations, workover, and completions; petroleum engineering in both the service and operating sectors.

You Will Learn

Participants will learn how to:

• Explain the work product of a completions engineer
• Describe an initial completion procedure and sketch
• Translate chronological steps from a procedure to a well sketch
• Recognize and describe morning reports
• Recognize the engineering that is required for developing a procedure
• Explain and provide an example of Basis of Design (BOD)
• Compare and contrast design and BOD
• Illustrate and explain the link between management systems and the engineering design process
• Identify the objectives of a completion
• Identify and describe each aspect that is to be considered to achieve the two objectives
• Compare the different drive mechanisms
