Medley's method of instruction takes the student through the entire UBO process, from start to finish, promoting problem solving and giving attendants a detailed, concise understanding of appropriate UBO processes. The UBO School is unique in its dissemination and not limited to drilling technique - all aspects such as completion through workover and re-completion are covered. The course also addresses UBO fluid systems, major segments on surface equipment layout, drillstring & casing design, and much more.

This class is specifically oriented toward operators who are considering UBO operations, not service companies. Typical students include engineers in drilling, production and operations, field supervisors, managers, etc.
