About this Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT)

This 8 half-day Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) course is aimed at engineers and supervisors who already have a basic understanding of well construction methods but who would benefit from a more detailed knowledge of completion design. The VILT course will concentrate on the important aspects of completion design and what makes a safe and efficient well. A common thread of practical examples will be used throughout the VILT course in the form of a case study or “red-thread” exercise. The case study is based around data all taken from a single field where those attending will work through all the basic issues of a completion design. The exercises associated with the case study is performed in the student’s own time after each of the formal sessions. However, at the start of the next day, the case study is reviewed and discussed. The whole case study will continue through all sessions, with each element being reviewed at the start of the next session. There is no 'right' answer to the exercise - producing interesting discussions! The purpose of the VILT course is not to go over specific equipment in detail. Teaching methods include presentations, videos, and animations and the case study.
