Well Control and Drilling - Surface or Combined - Supervisor or Driller
A new set of courses now available through ESD Simulation Training is certified by the IWCF, a widely accepted benchmark for certification of personnel working the drilling, workover and well intervention operations. Competency in Well Control for both Wellsite and Office-based Personnel is of paramount importance, and a contractual obligation of Drilling Contractors and Service Personnel.
This intensive 5-day hands-on course uses computer simulation, CBT+ videos and interactive workshops, with an external examination held on the fifth day. The courses will cover all three topics on which the examination is based - Equipment, Principles & Procedures, and Practical. The written examinations will be controlled by an invigilator nominated by the IWCF. The IWCF examination is valid for two years and is completed on two levels - Driller and Supervisor. Additionally two categories are addressed - Surface and Combined (Subsea). The course will serve as a refresher for individuals previously certified, as well as a detailed introduction for those without previous knowledge of Well Control practices.
Suitable For:
This course is suitable for personnel wishing to pass the IWCF examination for both Surface and Subsea BOP stacks and is designed for Rigsite Drilling Contractor personnel, from Derrickman upwards to Toolpusher/Rig Superintendent, who need to renew their 2-yearly certification. Additionally, Operator personnel from Drilling Supervisor (Rigsite) to Senior Well Engineers will benefit from this course.
