Description
Well engineering involves the design, construction, and maintenance of oil and gas wells. It is a critical aspect of the oil and gas industry, as wells are the primary means of extracting oil and gas from the ground. The well engineering process typically involves planning and design, drilling completion, production, monitoring and maintenance.
Well engineering requires a deep understanding of the geology and engineering principles involved in drilling and production. Well engineers must also be familiar with the latest technologies and equipment used in the industry, as well as the environmental and safety regulations that govern well operations.
Well engineers work closely with other professionals, such as geologists, reservoir engineers, and production engineers, to ensure that wells are designed and operated safely and efficiently. They play a critical role in the oil and gas industry, helping to extract valuable resources while minimizing the impact on the environment and surrounding communities.
Well Engineering & Casing Design for Well Engineers (WECDWE) Level 1 covers Formation Pressure, Density & Specific Gravity, Hydrostatic Pressure, Hydrostatic Pressure in Drilling Wells, Weight Materials & Material Balance, Pore Pressure Gradient, Porosity & Permeability, Overburden Pressure & Compaction Theory, Abnormal Pressure, Normal Pressure and Abnormal Underpressure, Origin of Overpressured Formations, Fracture Pressure, Estimating Fracture Pressure, Measuring Fracture Pressure, Leak Off Test (LOT), Top Down Casing Design, Bottom Up Casing Design and more
WEGE Level 1 is designed to provide detailed knowledge of Oil & Gas Well Engineering formation evaluation and will assist those who are switching or enhancing there career in well engineering or well operations.
