Production Operations

Production Operations

About the Course

Course participants will become familiar with both proven historical production practices as well as current technological advances to maximize oil and gas production and overall resource recovery. The course structure and pace apply a logical approach to learn safe, least cost, integrated analytical skills to successfully define and manage oil and gas operations. Applied skills guide the participant with a framework to make careful, prudent, technical oil and gas business decisions. Currently emerging practices in the exploitation of unconventional resources including shale gas and oil, and heavy oil and bitumen complement broad, specific coverage of conventional resource extraction

 

Course Objectives

• Recognize geological models to identify conventional and unconventional (shale oil and gas and heavy oil) hydrocarbon accumulations
• Understand key principles and parameters of well inflow and outflow
• Build accurate nodal analysis models for tubing size selection and problem well review
• Design and select well completion tubing, packer, and other downhole equipment tools
• Plan advanced well completion types such as multilateral, extended length, and intelligent wells
• Design both conventional and unconventional multistage fractured horizontal wells
• Apply successful primary casing cementing and remedial repair techniques
• Select equipment and apply practices for perforating operations
• Plan well intervention jobs using wireline, snubbing, and coiled tubing methods
• Manage corrosion, erosion, soluble and insoluble scales, and produced water handling challenges
• Apply well completion and workover fluid specifications for solids control and filtration
• Employ the five main types of artificial lift systems
• Identify formation damage and apply remedial procedures
• Design and execute successful carbonate and sandstone reservoir acidizing programs
• Understand the causes of sand production and how to select sand control options
• Understand the proper use of oilfield surfactants and related production chemistry
• Identify and successfully manage organic paraffin and asphaltene deposits
• Choose cased hole production logging tools and interpret logging results
• Understand modern conventional fracture stimulation practices
• Understand multistage, horizontal well shale gas and shale oil massive frac job design and operations
