Water-Based Drilling Mud Course

Price: 149 $

Course link: Water-Based Mud Course via Petrolessons

Many people involved in drilling of an Oil or Gas well may be aware of the basic role and function of the Drilling Fluid (Mud) in drilling an Oil or Gas well but may not fully understand how a Mud is made and the various additives that go into making a Water Based Mud and achieving specific properties. Water Based Muds can be simple and complex in their makeup and performance. This course will give participants a better understanding of how a mud is formulated to achieve specific performance criteria such as Filtration, Inhibition and will also give an overview of some of the different types of Water Based Muds in use today including High-Performance fluids that are designed to meet or match Oil Based Mud performance.

• Basic Clay Chemistry
• Additives
• Dispersion
• Inhibition
• Contamination
• Various Mud Systems
• High-Performance Water Based Mud?s
• Contamination & the Mud Report

Solids Control Course

Price: 149 $

Course link: Solids Control Course via Petrolessons

Many people involved in the drilling of an Oil or Gas well may be aware of the basic role and function of the Drilling Fluid (Mud) but not have an understanding of the processes that it must go through for it to maintain its stability and perform the many functions it must do day after day during the drilling of the well. Solids build up in the mud system as the formation is drilled and, if allowed to remain in the system, will cause deterioration of the system properties and excessive wear and tear on rig components and can eventually create a situation where the entire well is placed in jeopardy. Controlling the Solids in the system is an essential and integral part of maintaining a stable mud system. This course will teach participants how solids are controlled, the equipment used to control solids, and the function and application of this equipment.

Solids Control

• Control Solids Basics
• Shale Shakers
• Shaker Screens
• Cut Points
• Hydro Cyclones
• Discharge Patterns & Feed Head
• Desanders & Desilters
• Centrifuges
• Tank Design & Layout
