IADC/IWCF Certified Supervisor – Escalation & Barrier Integrity Management

Train escalation control by diagnosing barrier degradation and responding to compounding well control failures.

Request Demo >

Build Barrier Management Discipline

Aligned to IADC and IWCF supervisor-level requirements, this simulation makes escalation mechanisms explicit and trains corrective decision-making under uncertainty. Improved barrier governance reduces the probability of compounding failures and supports safer outcomes in high-consequence events.

Core Capabilities

Barrier Integrity Diagnosis

Identify early signs of barrier degradation and control loss.

Escalation Path Mapping

Trace how small deviations compound into loss-of-control scenarios.

Corrective Decisioning

Select interventions that restore control while preserving margins.

FAQ

SYSTEM LIMITS & FAILURE MODES

How do we deploy and use this simulation in practice? What hardware tiers are supported?

Deploy on-prem, private cloud, or isolated networks. Supported hardware tiers: X1/X3 simulators, Laptop, and Online. Teams can also rent the Endeavor Experience Center for executive demos, assessments, or multi-crew exercises. Typical session: configure scenario parameters, run the study and or simulation sessions, review KPIs, and export results.

Can we import our own well data and tool parameters? Which formats and integrations are supported?

Yes. Import well data via WITSML 1.4/2.0 or CSV/JSON, or ingest parameters directly through DOT.  Any input from the field—well schematics, logs, tool states, rates/pressures—instantiates a real digital twin of the well for hyper-realistic training and operational planning (Drilling Well on Simulator).  APIs and versioned adapters are customized upon request.

How accurate is this model in real operations, and how do you handle validation and limits?

The model simulates escalation and barrier integrity management by coupling pressure evolution, barrier degradation, and response sequencing rather than static checklists. Accuracy is strongest for diagnosing loss-of-control pathways and selecting corrective actions as margins compress. Where formation response or failure progression is uncertain, outcomes are bounded with sensitivity ranges instead of a single deterministic outcome.

What inputs and outputs does this simulation produce, and how do we export results?

Inputs typically include the operation configuration—well profile or trajectory, fluid properties, equipment and tool states, boundary conditions, and rate or pressure schedules. Outputs and KPIs capture the scenario’s hydraulic, mechanical, and fluid responses, including pressure and flow behavior across the system, evolving fluid properties, and equipment performance. Results also define , event detection, and time-based cause-and-effect responses to operator actions. Detailed datasets, replays, and assessment metrics can be exported for engineering review, training records, or planning documentation

What are the security, access control, and support expectations for enterprise deployment?

Enterprise deployments support role-based access control, secure authentication, and encryption of data in transit and at rest. The platform can be deployed on-premise, in private cloud, or in an isolated environment(s) to meet operational and regulatory requirements. Support is provided under defined SLA tiers, with controlled release management and long-term support options available for production environments.
