COURSE OVERVIEW
The main reason behind primary cementing is zonal isolation to prevent fluid to migrate into the annulus, protect and support the casing or liner from corrosive fluids and adjacent formations. This 4-day course was designed to address the issue of primary cementing in oil fields.
A participative program to enable drilling and workover personnel with the knowledge to prevent stuck pipe and further develop the skills to practically fish and side-track wells. This course explores best practices through design, planning and job execution to primarily prevent situational stuck pipe and associated conditional problems resulting within drilling and workover well operations.
