CDGA

The course will cover relevant subjects required to understand the structural mechanics of downhome tubular. Material aspects, connection selection, performance properties, load cases, design factors and buckling are just a few of the many topics covered. The training is designed to take delegates through the key drivers behind casing design for exploration, appraisal and well developments and their associated risks, challenges and solutions. The candidates will be able to design casing for any well: onshore, offshore, high pressure and high temperature wells, horizontal and multilateral wells
