Book excerpt: "Water well drillers are exposed to high levels of noise while working. NIOSH researchers have found that water well drillers are exposed to levels above 85 dB(A) while performing certain tasks during a typical drilling job. Noise levels consistently over 85 dB(A) during an 8-hour work shift are hazardous and lead to hearing loss in workers. Finding ways to reduce noise exposure is difficult because of many factors. The work environment is constantly changing because of the location of jobs and environmental factors. Drillers and owners can work together to prevent noise-induced hearing loss, and measures can be taken to reduce exposure to hazardous noise. A water well drilling site is full of potential hazards. Most common among these hazards is electricity, which was the cause of 21 fatalities among water well drillers during 1992-2000. Nineteen of these fatalities occurred while workers were drilling and/or servicing a water pump or when the rig contacted overhead power lines. Owners and employees should work together to create jobsite and task-specific electrical safety guidelines. The water well industry has a workforce with many years of experience. Members of the "Baby Boomer" generation have filled drillers' ranks over the past 20 years. As these Boomers start to retire, company owners need to pass on these workers' experiences to inexperienced workers. Today's younger workers learn and think about their jobs differently than their parents or grandparents. To help train younger workers, companies need to know more about these workers and their preferred learning styles."--NIOSTHTIC-2.

Download or read book Macondo Well Deepwater Horizon Blowout written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2012-03-02 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The blowout of the Macondo well on April 20, 2010, led to enormous consequences for the individuals involved in the drilling operations, and for their families. Eleven workers on the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig lost their lives and 16 others were seriously injured. There were also enormous consequences for the companies involved in the drilling operations, to the Gulf of Mexico environment, and to the economy of the region and beyond. The flow continued for nearly 3 months before the well could be completely killed, during which time, nearly 5 million barrels of oil spilled into the gulf. Macondo Well-Deepwater Horizon Blowout examines the causes of the blowout and provides a series of recommendations, for both the oil and gas industry and government regulators, intended to reduce the likelihood and impact of any future losses of well control during offshore drilling. According to this report, companies involved in offshore drilling should take a "system safety" approach to anticipating and managing possible dangers at every level of operation-from ensuring the integrity of wells to designing blowout preventers that function under all foreseeable conditions-in order to reduce the risk of another accident as catastrophic as the Deepwater Horizon explosion and oil spill. In addition, an enhanced regulatory approach should combine strong industry safety goals with mandatory oversight at critical points during drilling operations. Macondo Well-Deepwater Horizon Blowout discusses ultimate responsibility and accountability for well integrity and safety of offshore equipment, formal system safety education and training of personnel engaged in offshore drilling, and guidelines that should be established so that well designs incorporate protection against the various credible risks associated with the drilling and abandonment process. This book will be of interest to professionals in the oil and gas industry, government decision makers, environmental advocacy groups, and others who seek an understanding of the processes involved in order to ensure safety in undertakings of this nature.

Download or read book Well Control for Completions and Interventions written by Howard Crumpton and published by Gulf Professional Publishing. This book was released on 2018-04-04 with total page 828 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Well Control for Completions and Interventions explores the standards that ensure safe and efficient production flow, well integrity and well control for oil rigs, focusing on the post-Macondo environment where tighter regulations and new standards are in place worldwide. Too many training facilities currently focus only on the drilling side of the well's cycle when teaching well control, hence the need for this informative guide on the topic. This long-awaited manual for engineers and managers involved in the well completion and intervention side of a well's life covers the fundamentals of design, equipment and completion fluids. In addition, the book covers more important and distinguishing components, such as well barriers and integrity envelopes, well kill methods specific to well completion, and other forms of operations that involve completion, like pumping and stimulation (including hydraulic fracturing and shale), coiled tubing, wireline, and subsea intervention. - Provides a training guide focused on well completion and intervention - Includes coverage of subsea and fracturing operations - Presents proper well kill procedures - Allows readers to quickly get up-to-speed on today's regulations post-Macondo for well integrity, barrier management and other critical operation components

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Well test planning is one of the most important phrases in the life cycle of a well, if done improperly it could cost millions. Now there is a reference to ensure you get it right the first time. Written by a Consultant Completions & Well Test Engineer with decades of experience, Well Test Planning and Operations provides a road map to guide the reader through the maze of governmental regulations, industry codes, local standards and practices. This book describes how to plan a fit-for-purpose and fault free well test, and to produce the documents required for regulatory compliance. Given the level of activity in the oil and gas industry and the shortage of experienced personnel, this book will appeal to many specialists sitting in drilling, completion or exploration departments around the world who find themselves in the business of planning a well test, and yet who may lack expertise in that specialty. Nardone provides a roadmap to guide the planner through this complex subject, showing how to write the necessary documentation and to coordinate the many different tasks and activities, which constitute well test planning. Taking the reader from the basis for design through the well Test program to well test reports and finally to the all-important learning to ensure continuous improvement. - Identification and prioritization of well test objectives - Confirmation of well test requirements - Preparation of detailed well test programs - Selection and qualification of test equipment - Onsite (onshore and offshore) engineering support and test supervision - Detailed well test interpretation - Definition of Extended Well Test (EWT) requirements
