FAQ

DESIGNED FOR

Well analysts, artificial-lift engineers, production engineers, and other technical personnel who are involved in the analysis and design of naturally flowing oil wells, gas wells, and high-rate artificial-lift systems, such as gas-lift and ESP systems.

COURSE LEVEL

o Basic to Intermediate

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

After completing this course, participants will learn:
o Explain major factors in the artificial-lift process
o Analyze cessation of the natural flowing period of an oil well. Identify conditions in which a gas well ceases to flow because of liquid loading
o Identify components of a gas-lift and ESP system. Design and analyze gas-lift and ESP system.
o Use software tools to:
o Develop a well model for a well under naturally flowing, gas-lift, or ESP conditions
o Conduct sensitivity analysis on various components of well system for a robust design
o Adjust input parameters based on field measurements.

PREREQUISITES

o Understanding of basic petroleum engineering concepts. Attendees should have petroleum engineering background or at least five years of working experience in the industry.
o For 3-5 days classes: Each participant needs to bring a laptop for solving class examples using software to be provided during class. Laptop needs to have a current Windows operating system and at least 500 MB free disk space. Participant should have administrator rights to install software.
