This comprehensive course provides a foundational understanding of oil well completions, covering key concepts, calculations, and practical applications. Part 1 of this two-part series focuses on the fundamental principles of well completions, including:
- Well completion objectives and strategies
- Casing and tubing design
- Perforating and perforation techniques
- Completion fluid selection and design
- Sand control methods and screens
- Basic completion calculations (e.g., fluid gradients, hydrostatic pressure)
Through a combination of lectures, case studies, and interactive exercises, participants will gain a solid understanding of the concepts and calculations essential for successful well completions.
