ONLINE: Reservoir Engineering for Non-Reservoir Engineers (RES901)

28-30 August 20233 daysVirtual instructor-led course, OnlineCourse Fee: 1650 EUR + VAT

Description

This course introduces basic reservoir engineering concepts and methods to enable cross-disciplinary exchange of ideas and experience. It provides the required input to help you 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)?

Course Structure: 9 modules of 1½ hours each, delivered over 3 days
Each day will consist of 3 modules of 1½ hours, incl. a 15 min break.

Course Level: Foundation
Instructor: Leonhard Ganzer

Designed for you, if you are...

A geoscientist or petroleum engineer with little or no reservoir engineering experience

How we build your confidence

Theoretical concepts illustrated during individual sessions are accompanied by working on practical problems to ensure a thorough understanding of the principles and procedures
Hands-on experience by solving classical reservoir engineering tasks on PC

Customer Feedback

"Good overview of the subject." - Technical Sales Manager at Expro North Sea

" Good trainer’s knowledge and availability to answer questions." - Reservoir Geologist at INA

"The online course was much better than I expected. Not only all of the course participants kept the rules of online communication but also the instructor did a great job." - Reservoir Geologist at MOL

"It was a very good overview of the subject. Topics followed each other naturally and the modules were not too long. It gave me a really good basic understanding of reservoir engineering, which will be very useful in my work." - Geoscientist at EBN B.V.

"I can say that was really a great training session. Actually I have already participated in previous HOTEng trainings before, and all of them were at high standards." - Petrophysicist at MOL

"The sessions timing was excellent. I prefer short sessions with breaks and extended over couple of days rather than one day full training which is usually hard to absorb and honestly is boring." - Reservoir Geologist at MOL

"Good balance in theory and practice, style and technical expertise of the instructor, clear explanations. Applicability in my everyday work as a reservoir geologist." - Reservoir Geologist at MOL
