Reservoir Engineering for Non-Reservoir Engineers
Event Information
About this event
DESCRIPTION:
This course introduces basic reservoir engineering concepts and methods to enable cross-disciplinary exchange of ideas and experience. It provides the required input to help you understand questions crucial to the reservoir engineer:
- How much oil & gas is there (accumulation)?
- How much can be recovered (reserves)?
- How fast can it be recovered (rate)?
COURSE STRUCTURE: 9 modules of 1½ hours each, delivered over 3 days
Each day will consist of 3 modules of 1½ hours, incl. a 15 min break.
Course Level: Foundation
Instructor: Leonhard Ganzer
DESIGNED FOR YOU, IF YOU ARE:
- A geoscientist or petroleum engineer with little or no reservoir engineering experience
HOW WE BUILD YOUR CONFIDENCE:
- Theoretical concepts illustrated during individual sessions are accompanied by working on practical problems to ensure a thorough understanding of the principles and procedures
- Hands-on experience by solving classical reservoir engineering tasks on PC
THE BENEFITS FROM ATTENDING
By the end of the course you will feel confident in your understanding of:
- Reservoir engineering concepts and terminology
- Rock and fluid properties relevant for reservoir engineering methods
- Single- and multi-phase fluid flow through porous media
- How recovery factors and reserves are being estimated and predicted
- Reservoir engineering methods to predict reservoir performance
TOPICS:
- Introduction to Petroleum Reservoirs
- Properties of Reservoir Rocks
- Properties of Reservoir Fluids
- Principles of Multi-phase Fluid Flow Through Porous Media
- Hydrocarbon Volumetrics
- Hydrocarbon Reserves Definitions
- Material Balance Methods
- Displacement Efficiency and Mobility Ratio
- Decline Curve Analysis
CUSTOMER FEEDBACK:
"The online course was much better than I expected. Not only all of the course participants kept the rules of online communication but also the instructor did a great job."
- Reservoir Geologist at MOL
"It was a very good overview of the subject. Topics followed each other naturally and the modules were not too long. It gave me a really good basic understanding of reservoir engineering, which will be very useful in my work."
- Geoscientist at EBN B.V.
"I can say that was really a great training session. Actually I have already participated in previous HOTEng trainings before, and all of them were at high standards."
- Petrophysicist at MOL
"The sessions timing was excellent. I prefer short sessions with breaks and extended over couple of days rather than one day full training which is usually hard to absorb and honestly is boring."
- Reservoir Geologist at MOL
"Good balance in theory and practice, style and technical expertise of the instructor, clear explanations. Applicability in my everyday work as a reservoir geologist."
