Drilling Simulator - Introductory level provides a graphical very useful tool for training of roughnecks, derrickmen, drillers and students in basic drilling concepts and in the kick detection based on the behavior of the parameters during the drilling an oil well and of the behavior of kick in the well after the shut-in the well.

- Drilling (instruments, bit rotation, geolograph, neutral point);
- Capacities and Volumes;
- Hydraulics and Hydrostatics;
- Alarms Monitoring;
- Kick Detection;
- Hard Shut-in the well;
- Behavior of the kick;

Notes:

- This app NOT allows to control the well after the kick detection and shut-in.
The simulation ends after the simulations of underground blowout and blowout to surface.

- For well control simulation, use another app "Well Control Simulator". 
- For simulation of leak-off test, use another app "Leak-Off Test Simulator";
- For methods to control, use another app "Well Control Methods";
- For hydraulic calculations, use another app "Drilling Hydraulics";
- For kick tolerance calculations, use another app "Kick Tolerance";
 
These tools can complement (work with) this simulator by creating files which can be used in this application;
