Technical Oil & Gas TrainingFrom learning principles to real life performance

2 3

With 33 years of excellence, Maersk Training delivers

high quality and market leading courses and seminars,

focusing on learning and knowledge building, within the

Oil & Gas, Maritime and Wind industries.

Maersk Training delivers open courses, as well as tailor-

made, customer specific courses focusing specifically on

customer demands (HPHT, Safety, Introduction etc)

Maersk Training delivers at own centers globally, or at

any location customer may wish.

The search for oil and gas drives the industry into deeper

waters, increasing the need for specialist knowledge to

promote safety and secure profitability.

We define the needs together with our clients, and Maersk

Training meets the needs by developing both the train-

ing process and the tools for training and education at all

levels. Our range goes from basic training of junior drill-

ing staff to advanced well control and “train the trainer”

courses.

The key objective for any training is to build competence

and ensure work place efficiency. Our training is relevant,

quality assured and focused on the actual working envi-

ronment. That is why we call it “training to be Prepared”.

Our training is based on operational experience and real life scenarios. We believe in creating opportunities for our custom-

ers by sharing skills and building competences. By training the individual as well as the team dynamics we will enable our

customers to achieve a safe working environment and increase their operational performance.

Training to be prepared

”a better learning experience” says it all.

We deliver knowledge and learning, thus increasing

work performance, effectivity and business potential,

while decreasing risk of incidents and cost.

IWCF Well Control – Rotary Drilling

IWCF Well Control – Well Services

DuRaTIOn: 5 days

To submit the understanding of well

control techniques for surface or

subsea BOP installations at driller

or supervisor level according to

International Well Control Forum

standards.

After completing this course,

participants will have the knowledge

required to pass the IWCF

Certification test. The IWCF

Certification in Norway is a

government imposed certificate for

leading well service personnel and

must be renewed every two years.

DuRaTIOn: 4 days

The Certification Standards are based

on a detailed analysis of the pressure

control knowledge that persons

require to perform their jobs safely.

The standards have been devised so

that the measurement of knowledge

can be assessed systematically.

Introduction to Drilling Technology

Introduction to General Platform Operations

Introduction to Completion & Well Maintenance

Introduction to Commissioning

Introduction to Petroleum Geology

DuRaTIOn: 3 days

Get an insight in the techniques used

in the drilling of wells for oil and gas,

from the start to the completion and

production. Furthermore the

participant will learn some of the

rare terminology which is used in the

oilfield, and be given an insight in the

purpose of using floating production

storage and off-loading units.

Upon completion of this course,

participants should be able to

describe the various phases of a

drilling operation. They should be

able to identify, state the position

and give an account of how drilling

equipment is used on a platform.

DuRaTIOn: 2 days

Get a basic knowledge of production

equipment and processing.


participants should be able to give

an account of the production process

of oil and gas. They should be able to

identify platform equipment, state

the position, and in principle, give

an account of the workings of the

production and process equipment

involved.

DuRaTIOn: 3 days

Get a basic knowledge of the most

common well problems.


participants should be able to give

an account of the production process

of oil and gas. They should be able to

identify platform equipment, state

the position, and, in principle, give

an account of the workings of the

production and process equipment

involved.

advanced Well Control High Pressure / High Temperature (HPHT)Drillers of today are certified either

by IWCF or IADC. These certifications

are standard courses with a fixed

syllabus, thus in essence, stating the

minimum requirements.

When crews go offshore, they are

however met with a different set of

requirements, where team efforts

and advanced wells, not only test

their abilities to work in teams, but

also stress their competences on

interpretation of the well data.

With Maersk Training Advanced

Well Control Course, your crews will

gain a high knowledge of well control,

Rig Resource Management, Team

based crew training and well specific

cases. Furthermore we will train

your crews on one of the world’s most

advanced simulators.

The course is a 5 day course with

mixed content, varying from theo-

retical seminars, simulator training

and well calculations. Course are

intended for 1-2 crews simultane-

ously (Assistant Drillers, Drillers and

Tool Pushers).

Maersk Training provides continous

competency building between certifi-

cations, thus enhancing understand-

ing of well bore behaviour and team

coorperation in challenging envi-

ronments. Including enhanced risk

assessment and a better execution of

well control situations.

Wells of today are being drilled at

remote locations, with increasing

levels of complexity. This means, that

competence demands for crews on

board rigs have drastically risen dur-

ing the last years, and will continue

to do so in the years to come.

Maersk Training has extensive com-

petencies and references in training

crews on HPHT wells. We can supply

your crews with the knowledge

needed to ensure a safe and efficient

operation, by ensuring knowledge

transfer and hands on training.

Maersk Training HPHT Training will

give the professional drilling team

the necessary understanding of the

concerns and hazards of drilling

HPHT wells prior to Spud-in. We will

present and create an understanding

of the agreed and improved proce-

dures before drilling of a HPHT well,

as laid out by the drilling contractor

and the oil company.

Maersk Training will host and con-

duct well specific seminars, focusing

on Planning, Well on Paper, Guide-

lines, Capacities of the well, Gas han-

dling etc. Seminars are well specific,

and will contain information on the

well in addition to procedures and

manuals being used.

Besides theoretical courses, Maersk

Training can host simulator training,

focusing specifically on the well being

drilled, together with team coopera-

tion and stress handling.

Prepares your teams to execute

tasks, handle critical situations and

ensure safe and efficient drilling

operations.
