  • understand the drilling process.
  • components and procedures are discuss
  • basic science concepts which guide these processes.
  • descriptions of drill bits, directional drilling, drilling fluids, solids control, .
  • cementing, casing, well bore stability, well control,
  • measurement-while-drilling techniques, stuck pipe, lost circulation, and well bore hydraulics.
  • understanding of drilling operations for all participants, with or without a science background.
  • clay mineralogy well bore instability and drilling fluids.
  • pressure and pressure
  • procedures and problems associated with drilling wells.
  • Rocks behave differently under pressure and understanding this behavior helps in understanding drilling
