CHAIRS LETTER
On behalf of the programme and advisory committee, I would
like to welcome you to the SPE/IADC Drilling Conference and
Exhibition in London.
The conference sessions cover a variety of subjects including
HSE, Deepwater, Subsea, and New Technologies. With only a
single plenary session, the programme is optimised around the
presentations.
The conference also provides an excellent opportunity to meet new colleagues or to catch up
with former ones. In particular, the plenary session is designed to capture your views on our
industry, its challenges in a low oil-price and rapidly changing world, and how these should
be best addressed. I encourage you to actively participate in the open sessions and make
your voice heard.
The context of the conference is a growing world population with increasing demands
for energy, whilst a large portion of this energy still comes from hydrocarbons. The future
hydrocarbon energy sources will be even more difficult to explore and develop, while at the
same time, the general public is raising expectations toward our industry with respect to
social and environmental responsibility. Other industries have faced similar challenges before
and provide some great learning opportunities for us. I expect the programme to address
these challenges.

Programme Chairman Europe
SPE Drilling Engineering Award 2015
The SPE Drilling Systems Automation Technical

Section (DSATS) and the IADC Advanced Rig
Technology (ART) Committee will hold an exciting
half-day symposium on advances in drilling systems
automation. The programme includes three
speakers supplying valuable insight into technology
and methods from automation fields outside the
drilling industry:
The ACROSS Project (Advanced Cockpit for
Reduction Of Stress and Workload) Luca Save of DeepBlue
Aviation Automation - Ian Scott, Head of Aircraft
Services, Shell
Autonomous Logistics - Jon McMillen of
Lockheed Martin
In the second half of the programme, a distinguished
panel will describe advances within the industry, as
well as the next steps in realising drilling systems
automation, especially with respect to automation
of well control, well barriers, and well integrity:
Automated Well Control - Brian Tarr of Shell
Cameron Cognition, Smart BOP Technology
- Mel Whitby of Cameron
The symposium will briefly review activities and
progress of the SPE DSATS, IADC ART and DSARoadmap Initiative, and election of the 2015

Plenary Session: Successfully Delivering
Wells in a Changing World
The energy world is in for dramatic changes. Even
before the drop in oil prices, operators had started
to voice their concern with regard to what they
had experienced as an escalating cost of oilfield
development.
A major part of that cost increase is obviously
coming from the technological challenges that are
associated with trying to get to those not-so-easyto-reach hydrocarbons. These challenges are real
and possibly not any easier to solve due to the
16
SPECIAL EVENTS
dramatic market changes caused by the drop in the
oil prices.
This challenge may require stakeholders to look
at the way they are doing business and how
they should adapt and optimise their efforts in a
competitive yet co-operative manner. This may well
include breaking some barriers in the way we do
things today.
The session will be held without the formal
presentations that have been used in previous
sessions. Instead, the panellists will address their
points of view in a dialogue with the moderator and
amongst themselves in the first half of the session.
The last part of the session will open up for questions
from the floor in a form that aims at becoming a
dynamic and interactive exchange of opinions.
Moderator: Eithne Treanor
Eithne Treanor is a professional
conference moderator and facilitator, an
expert media and communications
trainer, as well as a seasoned energy

TRAINING COURSES
Monday, 16 March | 0800-1700

Borehole Surveying Awareness
Instructor(s): Angus L. Jamieson
This course focuses on the methods and tools of borehole surveying, their use and quality, and their
impact on well placement, production, and collision risk. Directional drilling challenges are increasing as
we aim for more distant targets, thinner reservoirs, and the need to optimise production at a minimum
cost. This course helps you understand the issues affecting wellbore placement, the risks to HSE, and
the costs of getting it wrong.
This training course will be held in Room 1 and 2 of the Capital Lounge.

01 Well Operation Planning and Human Factors | Capital Suite, Room 14

This session presents two elements, both vitally important for safety and good management. First,
robust well operations planning is essential as new projects are becoming more complex and costly.
Presentations on this topic include audit principles applied to well engineering efficiency, an update
on probabilistic well time estimates, and well cost estimation and control. Secondly, human behaviour
and interactions are increasingly recognised as central to teamwork and decision-making. The human
factors session includes the HAZOP process to identify issues in the drilling process, human factors in
drilling, and a review of the inflow process and the role it played in the Macondo incident.

02 Managed Pressure DrillingMeeting the Needs of the Future | Capital Suite, Room 11
The industry is facing increasingly challenging drilling environments. Meeting these challenges will
require advances in technology that are now only under investigation today. This session will include the
effect of sea wave heave when maintaining a constant bottomhole pressure (BHP) in MPD; the impact
of continuous flow systems (CFS) in the adoption of MPD; the development of an MPD well-control
matrix, the model basis and use of a dynamic dual gradient model for training; new developments in
MPD automated systems; and finally, a case study illustrating the use of MPD with oil-based mud (OBM)
in a difficult scenario such as a highly fractured carbonate below a sensitive laminated shale. These
breakthrough technologies are enabling the industry to overcome many of the hazards we currently face.

during the milling operation. Another paper provides a case study of a 16-inch impregnated bit run on a
turbo drill deeper in the Santos Basin offshore Brazil, while another covers a case study of applying the
rotating PDC cutter in Australia. A fourth paper discusses the latest developments on the hybrid rolling
cone and PDC, and a step-out application offshore Ireland. The last paper in the session highlights an
innovative new bearing design for the rolling elements in tricone and hybrid bits. The related ePoster

Controlled directional drilling is a key capability that makes affordable energy possible, which has
enhanced health, well-being, and the general quality of life for people around the globe. Critical to
successful directional drilling is the discipline of wellbore placement. Technologies and techniques
that enhance wellbore positioning accuracy have progressed enormously over many decades and
continue to evolve at a rapid pace. Please join us for an exciting session where we will hear about
some of the latest wellbore placement capabilities, technologies, and techniques that improve safety,
enhance production, deliver greater efficiency, and reduce environmental impact.

Directional drilling, in all its forms, is continually evolving as new reservoir challenges and remote

ability to drill further with more complex designs, but also in reducing costs over the life of the well. In

11 Wellbore Strengthening and Well Control | Capital Suite, Room 2

Managing well control requires a variety of techniques while a strong wellbore controls the hydrostatic
column, which is the primary well control strategy. This combined session will provide a holistic view
by pulling together aspects of kick detection, reviewing well control techniques according to barrier
analysis, and delivering case studies for drilling depleted sands and naturally-fractured formations.

This exciting session offers the opportunity to engage and learn about special operations, applications,
and challenges. It commences with global management of real-time data and processes that
significantly accelerate field development. The theme transitions to risk management of challenging
subsurface risks and geohazards over the life of an operating licence offshore. Advancements in
completions technologies, sand control, and sidetracking through depleted sands are also covered.
Topics on casing integrity measurement and evaluation, and multiple relief well drilling to a challenging
HP/HT blowout using advanced methodologies close out this session.
