Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Oilfield Development and Production Optimization. It covers the basics of petroleum geology, reservoir rock and fluid properties; the types, characteristics and formation of oil and gas reservoirs and the fundamentals of reservoir engineering; the exploration techniques and regulatory and environmental considerations; the petrophysical properties, reservoir heterogeneity and geostatistics; and the core analysis and interpretation, log interpretation, 3D reservoir modeling and uncertainty and risk analysis. Further, the course will also discuss the well drilling and completion, drilling technologies and modern drilling techniques; the drilling fluids, hydraulics and the importance of mud systems; the well completion design, wellbore stability, sand control, testing and pressure transient analysis; the reservoir management strategies, reservoir monitoring and tools and techniques for reservoir surveillance; and the waterflooding principles and secondary recovery methods, enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods and tertiary recovery techniques. link to course overview PDF
