Rig Inspection, Sizing and Selection
This course is intended to develop skills to conduct Inspection and Acceptance Tests on drilling and workover rigs based on API, ANSI, ISO, and IADC standards through the application of checklists and procedures to verify the working conditions and readiness of major rig systems and equipment. The course starts with a detailed description and specification of main rig systems and equipment used for drilling and workover operations and continues with the discussion of specific procedures and check lists implemented for conducting rig equipment inspection. Finalizing with a methodology used for rig sizing and selection.
