    This document outlines a well control and blowout prevention program that aims to improve participants' knowledge and skills in several areas related to controlling kicks and blowouts. The program covers selecting surface equipment, applying classic pressure control procedures, recognizing and controlling kicks, interpreting surface pressures, and applying fluid dynamics. It also covers evaluating and killing wells with underground blowouts and understanding relief well operations. The document lists the various contents that will be included in the program, such as gas migration, causes of kicks, tripping and stripping methods, classic well control, killing wells off bottom, and case studies.
