Course Introduction
This 5-day BOOST training course will give the reservoir engineers a better understanding of reservoir engineering practices and limitations. The course is designed to provide a good idea of reservoir engineering processes, the required data, and the limitations on the engineering analysis and interpretations. This course also provides persons who are already well trained in the other upstream petroleum industry technical disciplines with an understanding of the current state-of-the-art practices of reservoir engineering.
Course objective
- Know how to utilize the tools and techniques of reservoir engineering.
- Learn how to apply the principles of reservoir engineering
- Know how to develop reservoir, well performance, and asset management options
- Understand the fundamentals of fluid flow in porous media.
- Understand how the reservoirs are characterized by fluid type and drive mechanisms.
- Find out the basis for the reservoir fluid distribution.
- Have a full knowledge of oil and gas well performance and pressure build-up analysis.
- Understand the theory of oil displacement and optimum reservoir performance.
- Learn how to calculate the in-place hydrocarbon with different methods (Volumetric and Material Balance).
- Know how to predict the recovery.
