Description
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the essential principles and practices of primary reservoir engineering, focusing on its critical role in the efficient management of petroleum reservoirs. Designed for aspiring reservoir engineers and industry professionals, the course covers key topics such as recovery mechanisms, reserve estimation, and decline curve analysis, offering a solid foundation in both theoretical concepts and practical applications.Students will explore various recovery mechanisms, including primary recovery techniques, and examine methodologies for estimating reserves in hydrocarbon reservoirs. Delving into decline curve analysis, participants will learn how to forecast production rates and evaluate reservoir performance over time.In addition to these foundational topics, the course emphasizes the significance of well testing in the characterization of reservoir behavior and fluid properties. Students will understand the principles of capillary pressure and relative permeability, crucial for predicting fluid flow in porous media.A distinctive feature of this course is highlighting both probabilistic and deterministic approaches to reservoir estimation. Participants will gain a brief insight into uncertainty analysis and the integration of various data types to enhance reservoir characterization and decision-making.By the end of the course, participants will be equipped with the knowledge necessary to contribute effectively to reservoir management and optimization efforts in the oil and gas industry.

Who this course is for
Fresh graduates petroleum engineers, and fresh workers in reservoir engineering roles in oil companies
