IWCF Level 1 Well Control Awareness Exam Preparation

Independent exam preparation for the International Well Control Forum (IWCF) Level 1 Well Control Awareness final exam; it is not affiliated with IWCF and does not award the IWCF certificate, which only IWCF can issue after its own exam. For new entrants, students, graduates, support staff and anyone who influences a well without operating well control equipment, it follows the six subjects of IWCF's Level 1 course: an overview of oil and gas, the life cycle of a well, drilling rigs, well control during drilling, well intervention and workover, and pressure control during intervention, with three-dimensional simulations of the rig, the blowout preventer and a kick. It ends with a review and practice set for the final exam.
