COURSE DESCRIPTION: This 4-day course describes the main aspects of reservoir engineering. Reservoir engineering has been defined as “the art of developing and producing oil and gas fluids in such a manner as to obtain a high economic recovery” (Moore, 1955). The module begins with a broad overview showing how reservoir engineers assess the value of the reservoir from volumetric, fluids, flow, and investment perspectives and contrasts conventional and unconventional resources. Next is an elaboration on how much gas or oil can be recovered from various natural conventional reservoir drive mechanisms in gas or oil reservoirs, respectively. Then is a review of unconventional gas resources, contrasting with conventional gas reservoirs, followed by a similar review for unconventional oil resources.
COURSE CONTENT:
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
- Learn how reservoir engineers assess the value of an asset
- Learn how conventional reservoir reserves are estimated based on production and
reservoir pressure data - Learn how unconventional resources contrast with conventional reservoirs
- Facilitate communication between reservoir engineers and geoscientists
