We are proud to be among the few providers of the International Well Control Forum (IWCF) Well Control in Design and Lifecycle Management course – recommended for experienced personnel with a key role in well design and planning for well operations. 

Formerly known as IWCF Level 5, the five-day course aims to enhance delegates’ ability to: 

  • Recognise the impact that design, planning, and programming can have on the construction phase and on well integrity assurance throughout the well lifecycle.
  • Identify and specify well control actions that can be taken when working outside of the normal operating window.
  • Ensure that engineers in office-based functions have well control competence to support rig/wellsite operations. 

The course includes practical activities using table-top exercises and/or simulators and follows the guidelines of the International Association of Oil & Gas Producers (IOGP) 476 recommendations for enhancements to well control training, examination, and certification report. 

The learning outcome is for delegates to: 

  • Have discipline-specific skills and subsurface/geological/production knowledge to be capable of planning and performing safe well design and/or intervention operations.
  • Be able to evaluate technically on deviations to the well operations plan and advise accordingly.
  • Be able to support operational teams when assessing critical well situations.
