Advanced Drilling Best Practices
Program Overview
Leading drilling organisations consistently deliver wells faster and safer by turning experience into standard practice. This course examines proven practices across the well delivery process: technical limit planning, offset analysis and drilling roadmaps, hole cleaning and wellbore stability management, bit and BHA selection, vibration mitigation, casing running and tripping practices, and reduction of non-productive and invisible lost time. It also covers after-action reviews, key performance indicators and lessons-learned systems that sustain improvement across rigs and contractors operating in GCC land and offshore fields.
Learning Outcomes
- ✓Apply the technical limit method to set ambitious but achievable well delivery targets.
- ✓Build a drilling roadmap from offset well data that defines parameters and risks by hole section.
- ✓Evaluate hole cleaning and wellbore stability indicators and recommend corrective practices.
- ✓Diagnose drillstring vibration from surface and downhole data and adjust parameters or BHA design.
- ✓Analyse NPT and invisible lost time to prioritise improvements in tripping, connections and casing runs.
- ✓Design an after-action review and lessons-learned process with measurable drilling KPIs.
Target Audience
- Drilling engineers and drilling superintendents
- Rig managers and toolpushers
- Wellsite drilling supervisors
- Drilling performance and operations excellence engineers

Training Methodology
Applied Project & Assessment
Applied Project
Participants review the drilling data of a recently completed well in their organisation or a provided case, quantify NPT and invisible lost time, and present a practice roadmap for the next well with targets, parameters and responsible parties.
Assessment
Short diagnostic at the start, practical tasks linked to each learning outcome, and evaluation of the applied project against published criteria.
