Determining the motor gap/bearing play after drilling. Its the responsibility of the #directionaldriller to check this after every run, primarily to determine if the motor can be rerun or should be L/D. #directionaldriller #pdm #offshorelife #hse

Flexible hoses are in use on most offshore assets but, in general, the running of hoses does not appear to be well managed. Whilst whipchecks are normally used at hose connections, sometimes they are installed incorrectly and hoses are often routed along walkways and without any intermediate restraint, increasing the threat of injury or death from hose whip. Many are wound through or around structures, but this is insufficient to restrain a high- pressure hose that has been severed or disconnected. Fatalities continue to occur as a result of hose whipping incidents, even on non-high pressure hoses, eg International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC) https://lnkd.in/dsFXzEtc https://lnkd.in/d7MyyJTW IADC Southern Arabian Peninsula Chapter

Just completed the IWCF Level-1 certification from the International Well Control Forum! The IWCF Level 1 certification has equipped me with essential knowledge and skills to understand the fundamentals of the operation of Oil Drilling rigs and well control in a safer and more efficient working environment. The course covered the following aspects: 1. An Overview of the Oil & Gas Industry 2. Life Cycle of a Well 3. Types of Drilling Rigs 4. Well Control During Drilling Operations 5. Well Interventions & Work-overs 6. Pressure Control during Well Interventions 7. Killing wells & abandonment 8. Oil Exploration Incidents Key Takeaways from the Certification:- Understanding Drilling Operations: Delved deep into the intricacies of drilling operations, focusing on key parameters that influence well control. Formation Pressures: Gained comprehensive insights into formation pressures, pressure gradients, and how they impact wellbore stability. Equipment Familiarity: Enhanced my knowledge of well control equipment, Key Takeaways from the Certification:including Blowout Preventers (BOPs) and associated technologies. Risk Assessment: Explored advanced techniques for risk assessment in well control scenarios, emphasizing prevention and mitigation strategies. Practical Simulations: Applied theoretical knowledge through realistic simulations, honing problem-solving skills in dynamic well control situations. Relevance to Industry Standards: Aligned my understanding with the latest industry standards, ensuring compliance with global best practices. Looking forward to applying this knowledge in real-world scenarios and continuing to enhance my expertise in efficient and smooth functioning of Drilling rigs. #IWCF #WellControl #Certification #OilAndGas #ProfessionalDevelopment #SafetyFirst #oildrilling #rigs

IOGP Well Control Incident Lesson Sharing 24-4: While drilling offshore with a Drillship in the 12 ¼” hole section at 4174m MDRT with 1.63 sg SBM, observed a 7 bbl gain. Drilling operations were stopped, however circulation was continued to maintain BHP with MPD. The MPD mode was switched to ‘Flow Control’ Mode. Observed SBP increasing from 90 to 500 psi and with that, an additional influx. The total Influx volume exceeded the 10 bbl limit that could be handled via MPD (11 bbl gain detected). The well was then Shut-in on the Upper Annular. Both the SICP / SIDP were recorded at 350 psi. Perform well kill with 1.71 sg kill weight mud while keeping the BHP constant using MPD in “P@D” mode. This lesson sharing shows how important is to determine the best estimate of pore pressure during well planning and also, how to use the proper MPD modes while drilling and when taking a kick.

Casing while drilling (CWD) is a vital process that enhances the efficiency and safety of drilling operations. By simultaneously drilling and casing the well, CWD reduces the risk of wellbore instability, minimizes non-productive time, and enhances overall well integrity. This innovative technique ensures a more secure drilling environment, protecting both the workers and the equipment involved. 🛠️🔒🛢️ Safety first! Benefits: 🚀 Maximizes efficiency. 📏 Combines two operations—each meter drilled is cased. 🔄 Reduces time and risk for tripping in and out. ⏱️ Improves drilling efficiency, reducing non-productive time. 💰 Saves drilling and cementing time. #SafetyFirst #StaySafe #SafetyAware #SecureLife #ProtectionPledge #SafetyCulture #SafeHands #PreventionPriority #SafetyIsKey #GuardedLif #SafeJourney #SafetyNet #SecureSteps #SafetyCheck #ProtectAndProsper #safetyjobs #experttrainersacademy
