Failure is no longer an option.
It used to be the case that wells were either constructed with over-designed tubulars or that a learning curve / allowable failure rate was tolerable. This is no longer the case.
The course is aimed at drilling and completion engineers with some experience of tubular design and for managers and supervisors wishing to expand their understanding of the intricacies of tubular stress analysis.

Learning Level
This one-day session examines some of the critical issues involved in the selection of tubing and casing. It is not intended to supplant more comprehensive courses, but instead focus on some of the nuances and often-misunderstood issues involved in stress analysis. No software will be used, but examples from software output will be presented. There will be opportunities for discussion and you are welcome to bring along any specific concerns about your well designs.
Some of the issues that we will examine include:
