“This course was the most relaxed I have ever felt and enjoyed. I absorbed much more information and enjoyed great results due to this.”

Butch Anderson
Company Man
“The whole setup was really good. Small class size, so more individual teaching.”

What our candidates are saying
“Tim is extremely knowledgeable and helpful and the course content is well designed. I would highly recommend this school.”
Ahmed Bilal
Department Mines & Petroleum Exploration
"The course material was presented in a way that built confidence as the week progressed, and by Thursday afternoon I felt well prepared for the exams. The small class size made the experience more personal and engaging, while Tim's knowledge, teaching style and support helped all of us achieve distinctions."
Michael Elleray
Assistant Rig Manager, Transocean
“A complete and well thought out course with an instructor who could gauge capability of his students immediately and adjust the delivery of the course content to suit the attendees and maintain their focus as a result.”
Mark Stewart
Rig Manager
“The IWCF course was highly valuable and professionally delivered. The instructor explained the theory, calculations and practical aspects of well control clearly, while the simulator exercises strengthened my confidence and decision-making. As a first-time Level 4 candidate, I achieved a Distinction, which I believe reflects the quality of the training. I would highly recommend this course.”
Ali Al-Darraji
Senior Drilling Engineer
"An excellent course which again resulted in successful results."
Kevin Winikerei
Driller
“I really enjoyed Tim's teaching delivery style and content covered to prepare for the exams. The classroom participant numbers are kept to a size that allows the teaching level to be dictated by a smaller group and allows more one-on-one time on facets more specific to the student’s requirements.”
Rod Martin
Drilling Supervisor
"Tim was flexible with the course starting and completion times to maximize productivity. The course is held in a great facility with easy parking and all catering requirements are available in-house."
Rod Martin
Drilling Supervisor
“The whole setup was really good. Small class size, so more individual teaching. Meals and facilities were very good."
Craig Mitchell
Drilling Supervisor
"The administrative enrolment for this course was easy and feedback was done diligently. The format and information during and after course hours were more than adequate and the amount of people enrolled allowed more one on one interaction with the lecturer. Highly recommend this training facility to anyone renewing or doing well control for the first time!”
Butch Anderson
OIM
“The course was very well organised and in a great location. The small class made for an effective learning environment and allowed the material to stay on track. Tim was very knowledgeable and practical in his approach to well control and teaching the class. Thanks for a good course.”
Paul O'Shea
Drilling Supervisor
“Tim has a wealth of knowledge and is easy to talk with. Explains scenarios very well.”
