Rock cuttings from drill bits can be the most reliable source of information available at a wellsite. Presents the procedures and responsibilities involved in wellsite evaluation of cuttings and cores. Emphasizes attention to quality control in the collection, preparation, and storage of cuttings and cores to ensure laboratory analysis accurately measures subsurface conditions.

Describes design, selection, performance and evaluation of common drill bit types. Emphasizes the general application of various downhole tools and development of sound drilling practices.

Introduces the tools that make up a typical drill string, including the kelly, the drill pipe, and the components of the bottomhole assembly. Describes design, selection, performance and evaluation of common drill bit types. Emphasizes the general application of various downhole tools and development of sound drilling practices.

Upon completion of this module, the participant should be able to: outline mud system specifications for individual hole sections based on well conditions and drilling objectives, establish basic well control requirements, specify circulating system requirements and evaluate hydraulics practices based on offset well performance, review offset bit performance as a basis for developing bit selection criteria for a new well, provide general recommendations for the drill string configuration and design of the bottomhole assembly, and review rig specifications and capabilities in the context of drilling program requirements. ​This webinar is categorized under the Drilling discipline.

Describes occurrences, preventive measures and remedial actions for common downhole drilling problems. Addresses considerations involved in drilling abnormal pressures, working in sour gas environments and planning fishing operations. Discusses procedures for optimizing bit hydraulics, bit weight and rotary speed to attain minimum cost drilling. Emphasizes importance of the mud system in meeting well objectives.

In this installment of Get To Know: Women In Energy, we are joined by Scyller Borglum, Vice President for WSP USA's Underground Storage Market in the Energy National Business Line. 

The webinar will provide a comprehensive overview of both traditional methodologies and forward-thinking approaches in the field of rod lift technologies.

This webinar presents a method of measuring CO2 flow that overcomes some of the difficulties encountered with the correct determination of its thermodynamic properties and presents a methodology that may be extended to handle the phase transitions.

Quickly evaluating damage to drill bits at the end of a run can help optimize future drilling operations. Image capturing technology has developed to where bit photos with sufficient resolution for image processing can be easily captured at the rig site. Machine Learning (ML) has also improved significantly over the last decade.

Drillbit dull grading is a well-known process that accumulates the best forensic evidence of the interaction with the rock being drilled for drilling
