On Thursday, 29 October 2026, the Society of Petroleum Engineers KNUST Student Chapter hosted a live lecture on The Well Delivery Process: Cost, Planning and Execution. The session took place from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. GMT at the Simulation Lab on the first floor of the Petroleum Building.
The lecture was led by Ing. Derrick Klutsey, Well Delivery Lead at Tullow Oil and Section Director of the SPE Ghana Section. Drawing on his professional experience in well delivery, he addressed a subject central to the planning and execution of oil and gas projects.
The session’s theme connected three key dimensions of the process: cost, planning and execution. The presentation also highlighted accountability within a well-delivery team and the coordination required across subsurface, planning and delivery functions. For KNUST students, the lecture offered a chance to engage with practical industry perspectives alongside their academic studies.
Students attended the session at the Simulation Lab, where they followed the presentation and discussion on the responsibilities involved in delivering wells.
SPE KNUST thanks Ing. Klutsey for sharing his experience and the students who took part in the lecture.
