Introduction

The course is designed to provide comprehensive information’s to all aspects of the well flow, artificial lift systems, ESP design, surveillance and troubleshooting, maxiimize the oil production and learn how to deal with harsh environments using ESP lifting systems. The course will be conducted as lecturers and attendees will be actively encouraged to participate. The course content will be fully illustrated with actual data of design and troubleshooting to aid understanding and help to overcome any difficult problems. Comprehensive course notes will be provided, which will form a valuable source of reference afterwards.

Objective

After completing this course the participants will have:

•           Fully understanding of the oil production system and multiphase flow

•           Fully understanding of different artificial lift types and selection criteria

•           The ability to design ESP systems

•           The ability to take the necessary corrective action to deal with harsh environments

•           The ability to perform all the required troubleshooting with ESP systems

•           The ability to verify some actual well problems using Multi-sensors graph, Amperage chart analysis and problems interpretations
