Workover Equipment & Methods

16:37 Hours
This course is a comprehensive reference to over 40 years of hands-on experience in the proper design and operating procedures of well workovers & repairs. The course covers almost every aspect of well workover equipment & procedures, with an eye towards problem prevention, safety, and operational best practices. Conformance, acidizing, refracturing, erosion, corrosion and a plethora of other important topics are covered. This course serves as an essential reference library of experience & understanding that is invaluable to both new and seasoned energy professionals. Learning from one of the masters of well workover operations provides value that is unattainable from a book, and wisdom earned from dealing with real-life situations. It still takes 10 years to get 10 years of experience, but engineers and operators can make a tremendous contribution to the value of their experience by participating in this epic course.
