Casing Design

Audience

Drilling engineer, completion engineers and drilling supervisors with some experience in drilling

Purpose

The Casing Design training course covers the relevant subjects required to understand the structural mechanics of down hole tubular. Material aspects, connection selection, performance properties, load cases, design factors, and buckling are just a few of the many topics that are covered.

The training course is designed to concentrate on the fundamentals, takes delegates through the key drivers behind casing design for exploration, appraisal and development wells and their associated risks, challenges and solutions. It introduces manufacture techniques, specifications, loading, design, and problems of casing strings. It helps attendants to understand casing techniques and the know-how of the casing strings.

This Knowledge training course also provides explanations and examples of all the aspects of oilfield tubular design. Both uniform and non-uniform loading is covered. Combination loading considerations are envisioned and design procedures are outlined and practiced.

Participants will be able to design casings for any well: onshore, offshore, horizontal and multilateral wells.

This training course will feature:

• Understand the main functions, characteristics and different type of casing
• Understand the geometric characteristics and properties of casing, and how these can affect performance
• Appreciate the requirements for casing seat selection with regard to subsurface information

Learning Objectives

By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:

• Apply Company well designs strategy.
• Design the casing strings to drill well.
• Select appropriate materials for casing
• Select appropriate connections for casing
• Obtain integrating knowledge in casing design
• Hone their knowledge and get the self-confidence for doing the proper casing design
• Solving & avoiding the problems to reduce cost, and maintain well integrity
