"To be ensured for proper cementing during drilling operations to avoid channeling of influx, Gas/Water in well operations"

"Well design (Tubing, Casing size and specification) has to be as per standard guideline and with respective to reservoir pressure, temperature study)"

P.S. "In nutshell This is  a overview for Effective Well site Operations any further suggestion and advice are always very much appreciated and welcome and i believe together we can create this operation excellence "
