Oil and Gas Field Operations

Introduction

This course will provide the participants with an integrated view of the oil & gas field production and related facilities. It will also present an overview/fundamental understanding of the wide range of oilfield production handling and treatment equipment. It will also provide the participants with an overall understanding of the fluid behaviour inside the reservoir, through the down-hole tubular and the processing facilities. It is exceptionally useful for those who would like to obtain an overview of the oil & gas business, industry components, production technology and different recovery methods

Objectives

    • Provide the participants with an overview of global oil & gas related statistics
    • Provide the participants with an overview of upstream, middle stream and downstream operations and related facilities
    • Provide the participants with an understanding of various methods and techniques used throughout the Oil & Gas Industry to explore, drill, produce,treat and transport oil, gas and their products
    • Provide the participants with an understanding of various field facilities from the reservoir to end users
    • Understand oil & gas field operational problems and troubleshooting
    • Understand various production and recovery techniques and methods
    • Provide the participants with an understanding with regards to evaluating oil & gas reserves, artificial lift and enhancing recovery
    • Get a general feel for conducting economic evaluation on field development projects and risk analysis

     

Training Methodology

The course will include a number of exercises aimed at enhancing each participant capability to conduct various oil field production problems. A number of short films and animated exercises will be presented during the course to enhance the participants’ knowledge about the oil & gas field operations.

Who Should Attend?

  • The course  is designed for oil & gas field personnel, operations and maintenance technicians, and engineering trainees.
  • It would also be of benefit to other support staff who have an interest in increasing their understanding of the oil & gas field operations.
