Topics will include techniques of optimization, basic concepts, different optimization methods, hydraulic optimization, different nozzle selection criteria, diamond and roller cone bit weight on bit, rotary speed drilling optimization, hydraulic optimization with special downhole tools, well cost estimation, minimum cost casing design. This course envisages studying algorithms and optimization techniques used in the various stages of drilling and well completion operations. The course will also focus on presenting different optimization methods and expose the participants to variety of problems and solve them successfully. This course also focuses on the latest modeling approaches based on data-driven modeling, machine learning, AI with real-world problems. This course will have practical hands-on class exercises to solve complex problems in practical terms. The course finishes with the team project presentation based on the problem assigned at the start of the class.
