Training in action: real-life well control scenarios
Here’s how the IWCF Enhanced Well Control Course equips supervisors for high-pressure situations:
-
Managing a well control incident
A supervisor trained in the IWCF Enhanced Well Control Course managed a critical well control event on an HPHT well. Using advanced techniques from the course, they identified a complex kick, performed appropriate shut-in procedures, and coordinated with the rig team to stabilise the well. -
Controlling a challenging influx
A team applied enhanced mud management strategies learned in the course to handle a difficult influx situation, preventing a potential blowout and maintaining well integrity.
These scenarios highlight how advanced well control training prepares teams to manage complex situations effectively and maintain safety.
