INTRODUCTION:
A fresh procedure begins when an oil and gas field is discovered. We are curious about its potential and the available possibilities for subterranean designs and facilities almost immediately. A methodical strategy is needed to analyze the finding, forecast reservoir behavior under anticipated producing conditions, and construct the best facilities to achieve forecasted production in order to provide answers to these concerns.
The normal phases of a petroleum development project are exploration, field appraisal, feasibility study, project implementation, and field production. Offshore developments take longer to complete before going live. For offshore projects, reserves and well productivity must be significantly higher. This is done in order to pay for the higher operating and capital expenses.
Course Objectives
The key objective of this program is to equip professionals with:
- Appreciation and understanding subsurface aspects, reservoir and fluid characterization, both from a geoscience and engineering point of view
