Course description
Reservoir Engineering for Other Disciplines - REO - Virtual, Blended Delivery
This course will be delivered virtually through PetroAcademy. PetroAcademy integrates multiple learning activities, such as reading assignments, self-paced e-Learning activities, virtual instructor-led sessions, discussion forums, exercises, case studies, and quizzes.
This course gives the non-reservoir engineer a better understanding of reservoir engineering practices and limitations. The course is designed to provide a good understanding of reservoir engineering processes, the required data, and the limitations on the engineers' analysis and interpretations. The course also provides persons who are already well trained in the other upstream petroleum industry technical disciplines with an understanding of the current state-of-the-art practice of reservoir engineering.
Suitability - Who should attend?
Engineers and geoscientists now working in an asset environment where they need to better understand the practices and limitations of the methods and procedures employed by the reservoir engineers with whom they work. Participants should have three or more years of technical experience in the upstream petroleum industry.
Outcome / Qualification etc.
- Utilize the tools and techniques of the reservoir engineer
- Apply the principles of reservoir engineering
