Frequently "in-hole" problems are attributed to "bad geology" when in fact, the problems are due to poor drilling practice, in particular, poor circulation system management. In this course you will learn how to master 6 very simple calcualtions that will enable you to better understand the critial influence that the circulation system has on sample quality and borehole integrity.
This course is presented in two Modules:
Module 1: Basic physical concepts
Module 2: Important drilling calculations
