DESIGNED FOR

Petroleum, production, reservoir, facility, drilling and research engineers; geologists; field supervisors and managers; service company engineers and managers

YOU WILL LEARN HOW TO

• Plan and implement well completions, workovers, stimulation treatments, and routine production operations with an efficiency that increases profits

• Evaluate the flow capacity of a well

• Achieve reliable zonal isolation by efficient primary cementing

• Devise an integrated plan for efficient well completion and treatments

• Select and plan an appropriate perforating operation using underbalanced or extreme overbalance procedures

• Ascertain why formations are damaged and how to prevent or correct such damage

• Find out which stimulation is best and how to perform these jobs

• Review your current practices to improve well productivity

• Apply proven technologies and recent innovations in production operations

ABOUT THE COURSE

This course represents the core of our production engineering program and is the foundation for all future studies in this subject. The participant will become familiar with the procedures and techniques that increase production and cut operating costs. The course provides a fundamental and integrated understanding of wells, their design, operation and treatments. This is one of PetroSkills’ most popular courses.
