Shales and other low-permeability formations require multistage completions, hydraulic fracturing, and horizontal wells to produce at economic rates. This course focuses on the multistage completion systems that are used in these applications, including plug-and-perf, ball-activated systems (frac sleeves), and coiled tubing-activated systems (annular fracturing). Participants will learn the different types of wellbore completion options and …

This course is designed as an Engineering Level course to build upon previously gained knowledge of solids control equipment and its application. It focuses on oilfield solids control equipment, theory and application; from an operational, processing sequence, and economic application perspective. The course is designed for drilling supervisors, drilling engineers, rig managers, technical support personnel …
