About Us

Experience firsthand how tubing is snubbed and staged into the hole with our state-of-the-art simulator. This immersive training tool allows you to practice well-control techniques in a controlled environment, ensuring you’re prepared for any situation. Our simulators extend beyond typical snubbing operations. This robust tool aids in addressing well control challenges within the basket and stack, including scenarios like gas release from tubing, annular failure, or stack leaks. With our simulators, you can safely and efficiently practice responding to these situations.

Improve efficiencies with real-time training, with the DS-10 Simulator. This multi-screen simulator solution offers compliance-based, well-control training for the driller and supervisor meeting the requirements for IADC certification.

Through our Learn to Drill program, you’ll work through and build out a kill sheet for specific workover situations while applying kill sheet calculations to the well, ensuring there is no damage to the formation during the well kill operation. At the end of the program, a graph will be displayed to show a ghost line where optimal pressure should be and where students applied pressure to the formation. Gain valuable experience and confidence in managing any situation.

We understand the importance of the completions side of well control. That’s why our training includes hands-on and visual demonstrations of actual equipment used during the completion process, giving you practical skills that you can apply in the field.

Our drilling well control simulators for surface and subsea stack wellhead configurations address the practical applications, theories, and principles of well control. AWCA uses the latest technology and simulators to fulfill all the requirements and skills for IADC certifications.

Our courses are adaptable to various settings: they can be conducted in traditional classroom environments at any of our numerous locations, on-site at customer facilities, or virtually. While our courses typically begin on Monday, we understand that scheduling conflicts may arise. Therefore, we offer flexibility and can easily alter the start date to better accommodate our clients’ needs.

All courses are typically taught from 7:30 am – 5:00 pm CST; however, scheduling may be subject to change based on demand and time zone considerations.
