Description
The objective of reservoir engineering is to optimize hydrocarbon recovery. This course will introduce applied reservoir engineering methods and concepts to enable a cross-disciplinary exchange of ideas and experience. The course will help to understand questions crucial to the reservoir engineer: How much oil & gas is there (accumulation)? How much can be recovered (reserves)? How fast can it be recovered (rate)? The participants will also work practical problems to ensure a thorough understanding of the principles and procedures.
COMPUTER REQUIREMENTS: MS Office, Excel
Participants are welcome to bring their own laptops to class.
Course Level: Skill
Duration: 5 days
Instructor: Leonhard Ganzer
