PROGRAM HIGHLIGHT  2014 – 2021

Basics issues
Introduction to HDD technology, applications, its advantages and limitations. Similarities and differences in „small” and „large” HDD.
Geology
The scope of field research carried out with the use of modern core extraction methods. Parameters and interpretation of geological surveys.
Designing
Borehole trajectory calculations, downhole pressure basics, estimation of installation forces and Torque & Drag analysis.
Drilling rigs
Selecting devices to the project class. Experience resulting from the application of electric drives and monitoring of technological parameters during device operation.
Borehole navigation
Magnetic systems of the MGS type and hybrid solutions with the use of a gyrocompass module. Dynamic bottom pressure measurement using the APWD real-time recording module.
Drilling technique
Technological parameters of the drilling process and technological programs – borehole hydraulics. Operation and configuration of the lower drill string (BHA), drilling with downhole motors and professional tools for the pilot, expansion and calibration stages.
Drilling fluids
Functions of drilling fluid and its role in the process of drilling HDD holes. Mud compositions and methods of conditioning a washer. The rheology of drilling fluids and operation in a closed fluid circulation.
Pipelines
Anti-corrosion protection of steel pipelines. Plastic pipelines in HDD applications.
Environmental aspects in HDD
Drilling fluids in the context of environmental safety. The role of pressure analysis in the prevention of hydraulic breakthrough to the surface. Classification of drilling waste and proper disposal.
Case study
Drilling reports and database creation and analysis. Experience with the installation of steel gas pipelines DN700 – DN1000. Crossing coastlines.
Project Management
The investment process of the trenchless crossing project in HDD technology. Information as an analytical tool. Quality and risk management – assessment methods. Schedule of drilling works and project valuation.
Industry standards
Compare the available reference documents. Technical standard developed for the Chamber of Gas
