About this Training Course
Poor well integrity remains one of the industry’s most persistent sources of major accident hazard exposure, production deferral, and avoidable cost. In today’s upstream environment, characterised by aging well stock, late-life operating conditions, frequent operating envelope changes, and heightened regulatory scrutiny, well integrity management must function as a decision making and assurance system, not merely a set of technical checks.
This rigorous 5-day Advanced Well Integrity Management program is designed to build the capability to design, verify, operate, and recover wells within a defined integrity envelope across the full well lifecycle, from concept selection and completion design through operations, interventions, and end of life planning.
The course integrates barrier philosophy and acceptance criteria, risk based integrity assessment, diagnostic workflows (including SCP and MAASP management), and remediation options (both rig based and rigless). Equal emphasis is placed on governance tools such as Management of Change (MOC), derogation and deviation control, well examination interfaces, and continuous improvement through structured lessons learned.
Well integrity is examined across three inter connected dimensions:
- Engineering the well for integrity – barrier architecture, materials selection, cement design, corrosion and degradation controls, and verification requirements.
- Assuring integrity during operations – monitoring, testing, anomaly investigation, and management of the Well Operating Envelope.
- Restoring or retiring integrity – remediation decision‑making, intervention planning, suspension, life‑extension screening, and abandonment strategy.
Participants will leave with a practical, standards‑aligned approach to maintaining containment, preventing loss of operating envelope, and making defensible integrity decisions under real‑world operational and organisational constraints—while protecting people, the environment, asset value, and operator reputation.
