Well Control for Completions and Interventions explores the standards that ensure safe and efficient production flow, well integrity, and well control for oil rigs worldwide, focusing on the post-Macondo environment where tighter regulations and new standards are in place worldwide. However, too many training facilities only focus on the drilling side of the well's cycle when it comes to teaching well control; hence the need for this informative guide on the topic. This long-awaited manual for engineers and managers involved in the well completion and intervention side of the well's life takes into account coverage on the fundamental basics of design, equipment, and completion fluids circulated. In addition, the book further instructs on more important and distinguishing components, such as well barriers and integrity envelopes, well kill methods specific to well completion, and other forms of operations that involve completion: pumping and stimulation (including hydraulic fracturing and shale), coiled tubing, wireline, and subsea intervention. To enhance the learning process, bonus material in video format and interactive spreadsheets are included to connect the content with practical examples. Provides a training guide focused on well completion and well intervention only, including coverage on subsea and fracturing operationsPresents proper well kill procedures with added sample spreadsheets to utilize for real-world examples and bonus video materialAllows readers to quickly get up-to-speed on today's regulations post-Macondo for well integrity, barrier management, and other critical operation components, including coiled tubing and hydraulic workovers INDICE: Ch 1: Introduction Ch 2: Well Construction and Completion Design Ch 3: Completion Equipment Ch 4: Well Control Surface Equipment Ch 5: Fluids Ch 6: Well Control Barriers and Integrity Envelopes Ch 7: Kick Detection and Well Kill Methods During Workover and Completion Operations Ch 8: Pumping and Stimulation Ch 9: Wireline Ch 10: Coiled Tubing Ch 11: Hydraulic Workover Ch 12: Well Testing Ch 13: Subsea Equipment Ch 14: Well Testing Subsea Completions and Interventions Ch 15: Well Testing Subsea Intervention Vessel (Riserless) Operations
