Course Description

Introduction

In order to facilitate cross-disciplinary exchange of ideas and expertise, this Course N Carry Fundamentals of Reservoir Engineering training seminar presents reservoir engineering principles and procedures. It gives you the information you need to comprehend these questions that are important to reservoir engineers: How much petrol and oil are there overall? To what extent are reserves recoverable? How quickly (rate) can it be recovered? Participants will have a basic understanding of reservoir engineering by the end of this Course N Carry Oil & Gas Technology training seminar, which they can apply to other training sessions.

Featured in this Course N Carry training seminar are: 

  • Talks about how reservoir engineers work with other disciplines in the petroleum industry, as well as their involvement in exploration and production
  • An explanation of the characteristics of reservoir rock, Darcy's Law, and the principles of fluid flow in porous media 
  • An explanation of the characteristics and phase behaviour of reservoir fluid 
  • An overview of diffusivity equation application and well testing 
  • An overview of the various propulsion systems and a conversation on the recuperation elements 
  • The Fundamentals of Material Decline and Balance Analysis of Curves 
  • Utilising notions of immiscible displacement and fractional flow equations 
  • Production forecasts, assessment of the amount of oil and gas in place, and definition of reserves 

Goals

Following this training session, attendees will: 

  • List the fluids that are present in a hydrocarbon reservoir and describe it.
  • Show how these fluids are spread in a hydrocarbon reservoir using diagrams. 
  • Give an explanation of fluid saturations, permeability, and porosity. 
  • Identify the characteristics of water, oil, and natural gas. 
  • Define and explain bubble point pressure, oil and gas formation volume variables, gas oil ratio, saturated and undersaturated reservoirs. 
  • Determine the recovery parameters and the amount of hydrocarbon in the environment. Calculate the hydrocarbon in situ for gas reservoirs, saturated reservoirs, and under-saturated reservoirs using the general material balance equation. 
  • To calculate the amount of oil in place for saturated reservoirs and under saturated reservoirs, apply the Havlena and Odeh technique.
  • Utilising data from well tests to calculate permeability, skin effect, productivity index, and average reservoir pressure 
  • Talk about the recovery elements of various drive methods. 
  • Describe the use of ideas of immiscible displacement and fractional flow equations. 
  • Analyse declining curves.
