Course Description
This training includes API standardization, British Standards and ASTM Standard procedures that ensure appropriate notification and learning in these topics. It necessarily addresses problems of a general nature. Also, this training explain requirements and gives recommendations for six classes of well cements, and two classes of composite well cements including their chemical and physical requirements, and procedures for physical testing.
What Do Participants Learn?
Update the chemical and physical analysis to perform the physical test as per latest version of the standard
Who Should Attend?
Testers
