About Training
Reservoir Engineering is a comprehensive, multidisciplinary evaluation of both producing and non-producing oil and gas fields. This may include reservoir characterisation, reservoir engineering analysis, field development strategy, planning, production forecasting and reserves assessment, identification of uncertainties and risks and their mitigation and reservoir management and production optimization.
Our course is developed to build a firm foundation in reservoir engineering by identification of uncertainties and risks in order to improve the accuracy of the place the volume and recovery factor estimation techniques.
This course is a problem based learning (PBL) program and provides hands on experience. Based on the data from two fields: Hatar Oil Field and Banjora Gas Field (fictitious), the course leads attendees to evaluate hydrocarbon volume in place, recovery factor, reserves, production forecasting and deliver development strategy and plan. The field examples emphasises on the process and integration of various tasks, dealing with issues and their implications, and, above all, identification of subsurface uncertainties and associated business risks and their management.
