Training in action: real-life IADC WellSharp Supervisor Level with Workover scenarios
1. Managing a high-risk kick situation during workover During a workover operation, unexpected kick indicators appear. Participants use skills from the course to assess the situation, shut in the well, and stabilise conditions before proceeding safely.
2. Effective response to pressure surges in MPD operations In a Managed Pressure Drilling scenario, participants encounter a pressure surge. They apply their knowledge of MPD techniques and BOP control systems to prevent uncontrolled pressure escalation.
3. Coordinating shut-in procedures and well kill during completion In a high-stakes completion operation, participants simulate the decision-making and team coordination required to perform a well kill under intense pressure, ensuring well stability and safety.
These scenarios reinforce the importance of well control expertise in managing complex drilling and workover challenges effectively and safely.
