Night Shift Toolbox Talk: Well Control Awareness & Procedures
Good evening, everyone. Let's make this a safe and productive night. Our focus is Well Control
Awareness and Procedures. It's vital we all understand this.
1. Key Points
* Preventing the Uncontrolled: Well control stops formation fluids from flowing out
uncontrollably.
* Early Detection Saves Lives: Spotting an influx early is key. Look for those warning signs.
* Everyone's Job: If something feels off, speak up immediately. Your observations are crucial.
* Know Your Role: Understand what to do – communicate, activate, evacuate if needed.
2. Hazards Focus
* Blowouts: The biggest risk – severe injury, fatalities, environmental disaster.
* Fire & Explosion: Hydrocarbons mean fire and explosion risk.
* H2S Exposure: If sour gas is present, H2S is deadly. Know your wind direction and escape
routes.
* Equipment Failure: Our BOPs must work. Regular checks are non-negotiable.
3. Action Items
* Monitor Everything: Drillers, watch pressure, pits, ROP, flow. Derrick men and floor hands,
watch shakers, flow line, mud returns.
* Report Any Anomaly: See anything unusual? Report it to your supervisor immediately. No
hesitation.
* Know Procedures: Understand our well control procedures. Drillers, keep that kill sheet
current and accessible.
* Stay Aware: Always know what's happening around you and your escape routes.
4. Review and Communication

Pre-Tour: Before you start, mentally review our well control plan for this specific operation. Got
questions? Ask your supervisor before we begin.

After Meeting: Your vigilance is our first line of defenses. If you see something, say something!

Stay safe out there, team. Let's make it a good night.
