Course details

This comprehensive course is designed to provide you with a solid foundation in the principles and practices of Directional Drilling, a critical technique in the oil and gas industry. In addition to vertical drilling, most oil & gas wells use some form of deviated drilling methods which enable to precisely control the direction and angle of the drilling path to optimize access to underground hydrocarbon reservoirs.

Participants will have the opportunity to engage with industry experts and gain practical insights through examples.Join us in this exciting journey to get introduced to Directional Drilling.

Questions and Answers

Q: You're on the rig floor during pre-spud checks and searching "directional drilling MWD toolface verification before spud" because the MWD handover just happened; what do you verify first to accept the toolface reference?

A: Streaming logs don't validate orientation and you'll spud with a rotated reference, the scribe line alone ignores magnetic bias and introduces azimuth error, a static check ties physical reference to measured azimuth before movement and controls early wellbore tortuosity, circulation first delays verification and can mask a misindexed tool.
