The Practical Handbook of Well Control teaches readers to safeguard well safety and integrity in drilling well engineering. Offering an applied and scientific point of view, it covers fundamental aspects of well control and includes practical procedures and well control methods for land and offshore operations. It features a wealth of questions to commonly encountered problems and comprehensive answers at the end of each topical discussion to test reader comprehension.

• Written in a concise, accessible way by experienced oilfield and academic experts.

• Covers all related technical subjects of well control.

• Describes modern aspects of well control including automatic well control, advances in outflow measurement, artificial intelligence and IoT techniques for early kick detection, mud gas separators and riser gas modelling.

• Includes case studies to familiarize readers with real-world problems and solutions.

• Offers a full explanation of each problem to familiarize readers with commonly faced issues.

• Features sample exercises with comprehensive answers useful for IWCF and IADC exams.

This handbook serves as a valuable reference and workbook for field drilling and workover engineers in the energy sector.

Rahman Ashena completed his Master's and PhD degrees in Petroleum Well Engineering respectively at Curtin University, Australia and Montanuniversität Leoben, Austria. He has over a decade of experience in industrial field work as a senior well completion/workover and drilling supervisor engineer. He is an expert in data analysis ML techniques, and in lecturing drilling and well completions courses with TTT degree and IWCF Level IV certificates. Dr. Ashena is a Chartered Engineer recognized by IMechE and a Professional Engineer recognized by the board of Engineers Australia (EA).
