Reservoir engineering is a combination of science, engineering and art by which you could define recoverable reserves and predict future reservoir performance. It is of a great importance to the technical and economic evaluation of the oil and gas reserves and the selection of the optimum method of recovery. Without detailed evaluation of reservoir data, understanding reservoir behavior and applying good reservoir management techniques, significant quantities of oil and gas could be permanently lost beyond any recovery method. This course is exceptionally useful if you want to develop a feel for hydrocarbon behavior in the reservoir and of various recovery methods. It will also provide you with specific ad direct application of the process used in reservoir engineering and will enhance your skills in solving reservoir engineering problems and maximizing recoverable reserves. The delegates will develop subsurface skills for integrated analysis of rocks, pore and fluids and to solve problems associated with identifying and exploiting reserves. They will understand various methods applied to predict reservoir performance and to enhance recovery.

Upon successful completion of this course, the delegates will be able to:

  • Reservoir types, classification, properties, etc.
  • Critical properties of reservoir rocks and fluids and PVT relationships
  • The fundamentals of fluid flow in porous media
  • How reservoirs are characterized by fluid type and drive mechanisms
