Global well control training specialist Well Academy has marked the first anniversary of its dedicated training centre in Westhill, Aberdeenshire, which it shares with sister company ModuSpec – experts in rig intake and inspection.

Since opening its doors in November 2024, the centre has hosted nearly 50 specialised training programmes, ranging from IWCF accredited well intervention pressure control courses to ModuSpec rig equipment training and technical masterclasses. 

Delegate feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with particular praise for classroom facilities, spacious breakout areas and the exceptional calibre of training delivered by industry experts. 

Looking ahead, the 2026 training schedule has now been released, with around 150 courses planned across Europe – 50 of which will be hosted at the Aberdeenshire facility. 

Mark Watson, Regional Director for Europe, Middle East & Africa, said: “It’s been a fantastic first year at our training facility. We’ve welcomed delegates from across the UK and overseas and the feedback has been outstanding. It’s also been incredibly rewarding to see the strong response to the return of ModuSpec’s technical programmes including the Rig Inspection Workshop and Well Control Equipment Courses, both here in the UK and across the wider EMEA region.

“We’re excited for another busy and successful year in 2026.”
