Throughout the 20 animated lessons, students will learn about land-based and subsea topics that will increase their knowledge of drilling and well control. “The level of detail that we have included in the lessons brings the subject matter to life. As a teaching tool, the 3D course animations help students gain a better foundation of well control concepts by illustrating complicated and otherwise unseen downhole topics,” added Ken Smith, General Manager of Training at Wild Well.

The quality of Wild Well’s course provides valuable information for industry personnel to be informed and to work safely in the office or in the field. This course functions as a continuing education tool for experienced oilfield workers and as an introductory on-boarding tool for office and non-industry personnel.

As one of IADC’s trusted training providers, we are excited to see Wild Well launch their e-learning WellSharp Introductory course.”

Mahler continued, “As the leading training provider of IADC-issued certifications, Wild Well is committed to the continual improvement of its well control course curriculums under the IADC WellSHARP program, and, more importantly, the quality and experience of its certified well control instructors.
