Training in action: real-life well control scenarios
Here’s how IADC WellSharp training equips supervisors to handle critical situations:
-
Managing a Well Kick in the North Sea
A supervisor trained in WellSharp detected a sudden well kick during North Sea drilling. Using their training, they implemented shut-in procedures and coordinated the rig team, preventing a potential blowout. -
Identifying BOP Equipment Malfunction
Another supervisor used skills from the course to spot a malfunction in the BOP system. Their timely response enabled repairs, avoiding delays and maintaining operational safety.
These examples highlight the value of WellSharp training in ensuring well control and safety in high-risk environments.
