Summary
Essential training for well completion and intervention operators and supervisors in wireline, coiled tubing and/or snubbing operations.
The aim of the IWCF WIPC level 3 course is to enhance the candidate’s knowledge and understanding of well intervention pressure control. The course focuses on the duties and responsibilities of those working at operator level in well completions and/or well servicing operations.
The aim of the IWCF WIPC level 4 course is to enhance the candidate’s knowledge and understanding of well intervention pressure control and focuses on the duties and responsibilities of those working at supervisor level.
The course is delivered through interactive lecturing supported by animations, group discussions and desktop exercises. A simulator exercise is typically included to apply theoretical knowledge gained in the classroom.
The two compulsory modules are:
Completions equipment
Completions operations
In addition, candidates must select at least one of the following three optional modules:
Wireline operations
Coiled tubing operations
Snubbing operations
Subsea Operations (Newly added - see more context under Additional Information tab)
Note: Level 3 and 4 training is presented in a combined class.
Additional information
Please note: Level 4 candidates - should a candidate select all the elements Wireline, Coiled Tubing, Snubbing and Subsea Operations - the course will run over 6 days (Teaching x 5 days plus 1 day for assessments). Therefore, course will start on the Friday prior to advertised course date and continue the next week Monday to Friday. This will be confirmed by Well Academy.
