The ‘Upstream’ or Exploration and Production (E&P) segment of the International Oil and Gas Industry\, is in all probability\, the riskiest in terms of capital intensity\, long payback periods; technological dependence and a host of legal/environmental compliance requirements. It is commonplace for entities seeking hydrocarbon reserves to offset this risk exposure through collective entities such as Joint Ventures. This drilling contracts training course has been specifically designed to provide the delegate with a holistic understanding not only of drilling contracts\, but to understand them within the wider context of the larger governing framework of which they are a part in terms of hydrocarbon discovery and extraction. The course is an immersive experience and the focus is on open dialogue throughout and class exercises/problem solving and knowledge sharing. \nWe are also a proud member of the Energy Institute of UK. \nWho Should Attend\n\nPeople involved in Contract Management and Administration of Drilling Contract during project execution\nPeople involved in Negotiation of Drilling Contract\nContract Lawyers & Attorneys—Rig/Drilling\n\nContract Executives & Managers—Rig/Drilling\n\nContract Negotiators—Rig/Drilling\n\nContract Managers/Administrators\n\nRig Procurement Managers\n\nDrilling Contractor Marketing Personnel\n\nProject\, Operations\, and Rig Managers\n\nAccounting and Operational Personnel\n\nBusiness Unit Heads with responsibility for Rig Selection and Management of Drilling Operations\n\nKey Learning Objectives\n\nUnderstand some of the key issues that must be incorporated into a statement of requirements when tendering for a drilling contractor\n\nGrasp the basic different forms of drilling contracts\n\nBecome familiar with the key contractual elements of a drilling contract\n\nBe able to discern both the advantages and disadvantages that stem from being involved within a JV\nKnow what a JOA is and what it does\n\nUnderstand what a Joint Operating Committee (JOC) is and what it does\n\nGrasp the essentials of stakeholder management and why this is important to commercial contracts\n\nBecome aware of the differing formats and mechanisms that can be used to resolve disputes\n\nHave awareness of some of the different abandonment securities that exist/are imposed in different jurisdictions URL:https://www.opuskinetic.com/training/masterclass-on-understanding-drilling-contracts-2-2/2026-09-03/ LOCATION:Kuala Lumpur\, Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur\, Kuala Lumpur\, Malaysia CATEGORIES:Contracts,Drilling,Management and Leadership Development,Well Engineering ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.opuskinetic.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/OFFSHORE-DRILLING-scaled.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Opus Kinetic Pte Ltd":MAILTO:info@opuskinetic.com GEO:3.1384965;101.7099933 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260907 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260910 DTSTAMP:20260730T115237 CREATED:20240917T101217Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260506T035927Z UID:10002452-1788768000-1788973200@www.opuskinetic.com SUMMARY:Extended Reach Drilling DESCRIPTION:Why Choose this Training Course\nExtended Reach Drilling (ERD) is a technology for drilling longer horizontal wells at a high inclination angle to reach underground oil/natural gas deposits further away from the drilling spot\, instead of drilling wells vertically. \nIn exploration and development of oil and natural gas\, we drill wells to reach subsurface deposits where oil/natural gas is likely trapped. However\, in the event we are unable to drill wells from directly above these deposits\, since mountains\, rivers\, or town areas overlie them\, we drill wells from surface locations at a short distance away\, using the directional drilling technology. ERD is an advanced version of the directional drilling technology. More specifically\, drilling at a high inclination angle allows for drilling horizontal wells even longer distances. \nIn recent years\, the ERD technology has been increasingly adopted in E&P projects. For instance\, using the technology\, we are able to locate and produce oil or natural gas from deposits below the seabed by diagonally drilling horizontal wells from the land\, rather than constructing offshore platforms directly above these deposits and drilling vertical wells to reach oil/natural gas. \nThe evolution of extended reach drilling techniques is explained against a background of showing what can go wrong if correct planning or rigsite operational practices are not fully implemented. This is very much an operationally focused course which looks to deliver a knowledge level that can immediately be put to use not just in ERD projects but in improving performance on smaller wells and substantially cutting drilling costs from development projects. The knowledge from this course can be directly applied to ongoing drilling operations or future well planning and will have a dramatic impact on drilling performance. \nAll the topics are placed in their operational context and an understanding of how each topic is inter-related with the other subject areas in the course is developed throughout the week.\nThroughout the course areas in which ERD techniques can adversely impact the well cost or increase the well risk are detailed and the mitigations for these risks are discussed. \nWho Should Attend\nDrilling engineers and managers handling extended reach drilling projects. \nKey Learning Objectives\n\nHow to relate your project to the industry drilling envelope and how to define the correct level of planning resource to allocate to ensure success.\nWhy certain vibration types become predominant in ERD wells and how to address these problems.\nWhen to use high cost technology like rotary steerable systems and when these systems add little value.\nHow to mitigate the risks of motor drilling when they are used in high angle drilling.\nHow to ensure that once the well is drilled\, it is possible to get the casing to bottom and cement it successfully.\n\nEnquiry Form\n\n\n \n \n SalutationMr.Ms.Miss.Mrs.Mdm.Dr.Prof.Capt.-Name*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Phone*Email*\n \n Company*Current Location* \n \n \n AfghanistanAlbaniaAlgeriaAmerican SamoaAndorraAngolaAnguillaAntarcticaAntigua and BarbudaArgentinaArmeniaArubaAustraliaAustriaAzerbaijanBahamasBahrainBangladeshBarbadosBelarusBelgiumBelizeBeninBermudaBhutanBoliviaBonaire\, Sint Eustatius and SabaBosnia and HerzegovinaBotswanaBouvet IslandBrazilBritish Indian Ocean TerritoryBrunei DarussalamBulgariaBurkina FasoBurundiCambodiaCameroonCanadaCape VerdeCayman IslandsCentral African RepublicChadChileChinaChristmas IslandCocos IslandsColombiaComorosCongoCongo\, Democratic Republic of theCook IslandsCosta RicaCroatiaCubaCuraçaoCyprusCzechiaCôte d'IvoireDenmarkDjiboutiDominicaDominican RepublicEcuadorEgyptEl SalvadorEquatorial GuineaEritreaEstoniaEswatiniEthiopiaFalkland IslandsFaroe IslandsFijiFinlandFranceFrench GuianaFrench PolynesiaFrench Southern TerritoriesGabonGambiaGeorgiaGermanyGhanaGibraltarGreeceGreenlandGrenadaGuadeloupeGuamGuatemalaGuernseyGuineaGuinea-BissauGuyanaHaitiHeard Island and McDonald IslandsHoly SeeHondurasHong KongHungaryIcelandIndiaIndonesiaIranIraqIrelandIsle of ManIsraelItalyJamaicaJapanJerseyJordanKazakhstanKenyaKiribatiKorea\, Democratic People's Republic ofKorea\, Republic ofKuwaitKyrgyzstanLao People's Democratic RepublicLatviaLebanonLesothoLiberiaLibyaLiechtensteinLithuaniaLuxembourgMacaoMadagascarMalawiMalaysiaMaldivesMaliMaltaMarshall IslandsMartiniqueMauritaniaMauritiusMayotteMexicoMicronesiaMoldovaMonacoMongoliaMontenegroMontserratMoroccoMozambiqueMyanmarNamibiaNauruNepalNetherlandsNew CaledoniaNew ZealandNicaraguaNigerNigeriaNiueNorfolk IslandNorth MacedoniaNorthern Mariana IslandsNorwayOmanPakistanPalauPalestine\, State ofPanamaPapua New GuineaParaguayPeruPhilippinesPitcairnPolandPortugalPuerto RicoQatarRomaniaRussian FederationRwandaRéunionSaint BarthélemySaint Helena\, Ascension and Tristan da CunhaSaint Kitts and NevisSaint LuciaSaint MartinSaint Pierre and MiquelonSaint Vincent and the GrenadinesSamoaSan MarinoSao Tome and PrincipeSaudi ArabiaSenegalSerbiaSeychellesSierra LeoneSingaporeSint MaartenSlovakiaSloveniaSolomon IslandsSomaliaSouth AfricaSouth Georgia and the South Sandwich IslandsSouth SudanSpainSri LankaSudanSurinameSvalbard and Jan MayenSwedenSwitzerlandSyria Arab RepublicTaiwanTajikistanTanzania\, the United Republic ofThailandTimor-LesteTogoTokelauTongaTrinidad and TobagoTunisiaTurkmenistanTurks and Caicos IslandsTuvaluTürkiyeUS Minor Outlying IslandsUgandaUkraineUnited Arab EmiratesUnited KingdomUnited StatesUruguayUzbekistanVanuatuVenezuelaViet NamVirgin Islands\, BritishVirgin Islands\, U.S.Wallis and FutunaWestern SaharaYemenZambiaZimbabweÅland Islands\n Country\n \n \n How many people are you looking at?1 - 2 Standard Rates3 - 5 Group Discount>10 In-House Training\, Huge Savings!Undecided\, need more informationThis is just an approximate number.
