PETROLEUM ENGINEERING

Introduction

The course provides an insight in to the Field Development Process and the role of Production Engineering. It will explain the important concepts in reservoir and well productivity optimisation, downhole completion concepts, completion equipments, wireline services, perforating, multiple zone completions, well intervention and workover, and advanced wells. The goal of the course is to provide an insight into the role of production engineer and basic concepts in well productivity, as well as covering various operational issues.

Objective

By the end of this course, participant will be able to:

? Gain a comprehensive understanding of surface and subsurface production systems, including wellheads, flowlines, separators, and storage facilities.

? Master Well Completion Design

? Learn Downhole Equipment and Technologies

? Develop Problem-Solving Skills

? Understand Stimulation and Artificial Lift Systems

? Integrate Well Integrity and Safety Practices

? Focus on Optimization and Economic Analysis

? Explore Emerging Trends and Technologies

Audience

This course is designed for Oil filed Technologists, project managers, plant managers, plant supervisors, Production Supervisors, technical staff, Operators and Technicians and contractor personnel involved in the production of oil and natural gas. The greatest benefit arises from discussing the underlying principles of the various processes and the cause of the common operating problems. You will also be able to see which processes are available to you to de-bottleneck or modify existing processes. The practical techniques and examples provide useful insights that are valuable in daily operations. Participants are encouraged to introduce any operating problems they have encountered for group discussion.

Trainee operators, field Operators, station Operators, Control Room Operators, and Production/ process Supervisors. Process and maintenance technicians.

For all engineers working in oil and gas fields: Reservoir Engineers, Production Technology Engineers, Production Operation Engineers, and Production Managers
