Drilling and Wells
Initial Completions and Well Testing Operations - Well Site Supervisor
This unit covers the completion competencies a well site supervisor needs beyond those shared with drilling, for both conventional and unconventional reservoirs. It recognises that completion costs can form a large share of total well cost in unconventional plays. Topics include completion design, perforating, formation damage, sand control and hydraulic fracturing.
