Fracking Fundamentals

Overview

As the experts in onshore well engineer in Australia, our pedigree and track record make us the leading voice in drilling and completions, fracture stimulation and well integrity.

From pioneering well construction to delivering end-to-end energy solutions, our services span environmental approvals and compliance to civil design, well construction, facilities installation, and beyond.

At inGauge, we empower teams with cutting-edge knowledge and skills in fracture stimulation through our Fracking Fundamentals training program.

Designed for reservoir engineers, drilling and completion engineers, fracture stimulation specialists, and professionals seeking a deeper understanding of hydraulic fracturing physics and applications. Whether you’re new to the field or looking to refine advanced techniques,
our Fracking Fundamentals training will elevate your team’s capabilities and operational success.
Led by industry expert Jim McGowen, this comprehensive training is tailored to elevate capabilities across all expertise levels, with content including:

Foundational knowledge

The “Why Frac?” fundamentals, well construction requirements, and essential surface
equipment insights.
