Prerequisites for the course are summarized below.
- Understanding of petroleum production concepts.
- Knowledge of Python is NOT A MUST but preferred to get more benefit.
- We will use the Google Collaboratory environment available in Google-Cloud for hands-on exercises.
- Trainees will need to bring a computer with a Google Chrome browser and a Google email account (available for free).
BUSINESS IMPACT: The main aim is to provide insight and understanding of data analytics and machine learning principles through applications. Field data is used to explain data-analysis workflows. Using easy to follow solution scripts, the participants will assess and extract value from the data sets. Hands-on solution approach will give them confidence to try out applicable techniques on data from their field assets.
COURSE DESCRIPTION: Data analysis means cleaning, inspecting, transforming, and modeling data with the goal of discovering new, useful information and supporting decision-making. In this hands-on course, the participants learn some data analysis and data science techniques and workflows applied to petroleum production (specifically artificial lift) while reviewing code and practicing. The focus is on developing data-driven models while keeping our feet closer to the underlying oil and gas production principles. After completing the course, participants will have a set of tools and some pathways to analyze and manipulate their data in the cloud, find trends, and develop data-driven models.
Specifically, the following use cases are discussed covering their business impact, code walkthroughs, and solutions:
- Gas-Lift optimization: Single point gas-lift injection for gas wells in tight formation using simulated data.
- Choke flow rate Estimation for high-volume wells using offshore dataset.
- Rod Pump Diagnosis (card classification) using onshore field data.
- Multiphase Flow Meter Prediction using three-phase measured dataset.
Customization
- The course content is for one-day classroom or two virtual half-day sessions. The training can be presented as a 2-days or four half-day long virtual sessions with expanded content.
- Client’s dataset-based examples are optionally incorporated in the class discussions. This option requires discussions with the client about the problem, two-days of consulting effort, and access to the client dataset at least 4 weeks before the class.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
After completing the course, participants will have a set of tools and some pathways to model and analyze their data in the cloud, find trends, and develop data-driven models.
