Description
Intended Audience
Drilling engineers, completion engineers, and drilling supervisors who desire to gain additional insight into casing and tubing design.
Description
This course covers all relevant subjects required to understand the structural mechanics of downhole tubulars and gain proficiency and confidence in developing safe and cost-effective casing and tubing designs. Material aspects, connection selection, performance properties, load cases, design factors, and buckling are just a few of the many topics that are covered. Attendees are encouraged to bring well designs and well problems, both past and present, to use as in-class exercises.
