Time is money. Drilling Time is big money. Technical and managerial decisions makers must grasp the language and technology of drilling operations in order to minimize expenditures throughout the producing life of a well. Successful drilling requires blending many technologies. Drilling equipment and procedures have a unique language that must be conquered for maximum benefit. Clear understandable explanations of drilling rig equipment, procedures, and their complex interactions provide an excellent basis to organize cross-trained team efforts. Activities around the rig and well planning are mystified. Subtle and blatant common errors are accentuated to enhance this understanding.
