Stuck pipe can be a highly disruptive and subsequently costly problem for drilling operators. Depending on the type of issue, it can lead to equipment damage, downtime and safety risks.
Understanding how stuck pipe events can occur and how they can be prevented in well design and during operations, is therefore extremely important.
We offer a combined stuck pipe prevention and recovery training course which increases participants’ knowledge of stuck pipe occurrences and shares effective management strategies both for well design and operations.
Delegates take part in numerous practical case study exercises, learning of real-life recommendations to prevent stuck pipe which can be immediately implemented on the rig. The three-day course also provides an in-depth understanding of stuck pipe mechanisms and how to manage incidents adequately.
Using our full-sized DS5000 simulator, delegates can experience and practice operational steps for recovery in a safe environment. The course is highly interactive and puts theory into practice through desktop exercises and simulator scenarios. The course can also be delivered virtually or in client offices using our cloud-based simulator.
