Wells planning and construction is an important phase for delivering successful petroleum projects and represents a big portion (30–40%) of petroleum project economics. The objective of well planning is to learn from offset wells, optimise well trajectory and understand PPFG operating window, prepare fit-for-purpose design and procedure to deliver safe, cost-effective and highly useable wellbores that will maximise reservoir access and production rate.

The workshop will address multiple drilling planning and construction aspects which are important for well engineering and operation community. The topics includes pore pressure and fracture gradient prediction, casing design for salt and deep water application, drilling fluids planning and management for deep water wells, rig preparation and inspection to deliver trouble-free and safe wells, and much more.

Two achieve great results, two things are needed; proper well planning and well construction.
