Introduction

The principles of sound reservoir management are presented with emphasis on practical applications.

Actual case histories are used to study both successes and failures. An interdisciplinary synergistic approach to efficient reservoir management is detailed with the goal of optimized profitability. The significance of each component and the importance of timing and cost/benefit analysis are emphasized.

Reservoir management models for optimum field development and field operating plans are analysed.

The interdisciplinary reservoir management approach shows how each technology or function contributes to the plan and how checks and balances are developed.

Objective

Upon successful completion of this course, the delegates will be able to:

• Apply the principles of sound reservoir management.
• Use the interdisciplinary synergistic approach to efficient reservoir management.
• Include each reservoir management component and the importance of timing and cost/benefit analysis.
• Develop checks and balances.

Audience

Engineers who are part of the Reservoir Engineering department

Methodology

The training course will be highly participatory and the course leader will present, guide and facilitate learning, using a range of methods including formal presentation, discussions, sector-specific case studies and exercises.  Above all, the course leader will make extensive use of real-life case examples in which he has been personally involved. You will also be encouraged to raise your own questions and to share in the development of the right answers using your own analysis and experiences.  Tests of multiple-choice type will be made available on daily basis to examine the effectiveness of delivering the course.
