About this Micro Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT)
Poorly understood and inefficiently planned rigless interventions can create costly, and often dangerous, problems for operators. These issues can be avoided with the knowledge, best practices, and lessons provided in this Micro VILT. Participants will benefit from the increased knowledge of rigless, live well interventions including coiled tubing, slickline and wireline. In addition, participants will review engineering design considerations, recommended safety policies, and best practices that can positively affect operations.
This Micro VILT has been designed to provide knowledge and understanding of surface equipment, downhole tools, various applications, and operational contingencies for rigless well interventions involving coiled tubing, slickline, or wireline. The participants will learn first-hand knowledge of the capability of each intervention and what to consider when choosing which intervention method to utilise.
The Micro VILT will cover recommended risk mitigation and well control barriers as well as best practices gained from years of experience and application. To further illustrate the intervention methods utilised to resolve well issues or enhance well performance, real world examples for coiled tubing, slickline and wireline will be presented and discussed.

- Enhance rigless intervention safety, efficiency, and success by applying industry best practices and lessons learned for each job type.
Invaluable for all personnel that are involved in the “Well Life Cycle” and require to have a working knowledge of Rigless interventions. Designed for professionals in the oil & gas industry who are involved in the design, construction and operation of wells from the following disciplines:
- Completion Engineering
- Drilling Engineering
- Production Operations
- Production Technology
- Subsurface Engineering
- Well Integrity Engineering
- Well Intervention
Gordon Duncan has over 40 years of experience in the Oil & Gas industry. During that time, he has worked exclusively in well intervention and completions. After a number of years working for intervention service companies (completions, slickline & workovers), he joined Shell as a well service supervisor. He was responsible for the day-to-day supervision of all well intervention work on Shell’s Persian/Arabian Gulf platforms. This included completion running, coil tubing, e-line, slickline, hydraulic workovers, well testing and stimulation operations. An office-based role as a senior well engineer followed.
He was responsible for planning, programming and organising of all the well engineering and intervention work on a number of fields in the Middle East. He had a brief spell as a Site Representative for Santos in Australia before joining Petro-Canada as Completions Superintendent in Syria, then moved to Australia as Completions Operations Superintendent for Santos, before returning to Shell as Field Supervisor Completions and Well Interventions in Iraq where he carried out the first ever formal abandonment of a well in the Majnoon Field. While working on rotation, Gordon regularly taught Completion Practices, Well Intervention, Well Integrity and Reporting & Planning courses all over the world. In 2014, he started to focus 100% on training and became the Technical Director for PetroEDGE.
Since commencing delivering training courses in 2008, Gordon has taught over 300 courses in 31 cities in 16 countries to in excess of 3,500 participants.
To further optimise your learning experience from our courses, we also offer individualized “One to One” coaching support for 2 hours post training. We can help improve your competence in your chosen area of interest, based on your learning needs and available hours. This is a great opportunity to improve your capability and confidence in a particular area of expertise. It will be delivered over a secure video conference call by one of our senior trainers. They will work with you to create a tailor-made coaching program that will help you achieve your goals faster.
