Waterflooding Technologies and Field Practices

Waterflooding Technologies and Field Practices

DESCRIPTION

The course is a theoretical-practical course and is designed to as a workshop where the participant has to work hard solving a series of projects to apply immediately the concepts, mathematical principle as and theories presented and learned during the course. The participants will use a reservoir engineering software designed for water injection. The software will be provided to each participant without additional cost.

 

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

This course is designed for Production, Reservoir Engineers and theirs Supervisors, Chemical Engineers associated with refineries and water handling, Geophysical and Technical field personnel and Service Companies representatives to obtain or increase understanding on waterflooding process and problems associated to field operations

COURSE OBJECTIVES

The main goal of the course is the prediction and interpretation of the detailed behavior of oil and gas reservoir under difference known methods of water Injection that enable the Petroleum Engineer to select the correct methods at the right time based in the drive mechanisms and production data of  specific reservoirs under consideration.
