About this course

STRATEGIC COLLABORATION FOR INFILL DRILLING EXECUTION READINESS. Integrated Planning for Subsurface-Topsides Alignment, Multi-Well Risk Management, and Delivery Strategy Optimization

This two-week technical and strategic workshop brings together a multidisciplinary team to prepare for the successful execution of an infill drilling campaign in a mature offshore asset. The workshop will address key challenges including subsea and topside integration, execution risks across multi-well drilling operations, well placement optimization, and alignment of contracting and delivery strategies.

Through expert-led modules, collaborative planning sessions, and strategic readiness exercises, participants will co-develop a unified roadmap for safe, efficient, and sustainable campaign delivery.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND Drilling Engineers, Facility Engineers, Subsurface Operations Advisors, Planning Analysts, Finance & Insurance Analysts, HR & Organizational Development Professionals, Government Relations Analysts, Contracting & Procurement Specialists, Project Managers

Day 1: KICKOFF & CAMPAIGN OVERVIEW. Plenary + Panel Session Infill Drilling being a secondary drilling strategy is used in oil and gas fields to increase recovery from a reservoir that is already producing. Instead of targeting brand-new areas, infill drilling involves placing additional wells within the existing field — in between the original (primary) wells — to extract hydrocarbons that might otherwise remain trapped.

Day 2: SUBSEA & TOPSIDE INTEGRATION. Technical Lecture with Case Study

The main topside interface challenges in infill strategies revolve around capacity, space, safety, tie-in logistics, and simultaneous operations risks. A successful infill program requires detailed brownfield integration studies to balance subsurface potential with topside limitations.
