Course Description

The significance of petroleum engineering becomes a significant element in oil industry. This course provides a broad overview on Petroleum Engineering, for people with no background in Petroleum Engineering, ranging from petroleum geology to production optimisation. It introduces the upstream oil and gas industry, its challenges, and the techniques Petroleum Engineers deploy to overcome the issues. It provides the required technology to keep the day to day supply of crude oil and natural gas. Petroleum engineering includes a combination of technical and non-technical activities. Non-technical staff will be more productive if they gain a full understanding for the fundamentals of the industry. This course intends to give the non-specialized staff involved in oil industry with an overview petroleum engineering concepts and features. The course embraces a basic methodology for clarification starting from the initial oil exploration and up to the received techniques to increase oil production and ultimate recovery. Furthermore, the training covers the overall oil field life cycle and basics of petroleum economics.

Course Objectives:

At the end of this course, delegates will be able to:

• Discuss petroleum engineering fundamentals
• Recognize the role of the petroleum/reservoir engineer in optimizing recovery
• Assess an overall knowledge of various hydrocarbon production processes from the time a reservoir is discovered to end users
• Apply knowledge of various and sub-surface equipment and processing facilities used in a typical oil and gas field
• State the significance of petroleum engineering in the oil and gas industry

Who Should Attend?

• Non-petroleum engineers
• Oil and Gas production field personnel
• Operations and maintenance supervisors
• Technicians
• Support engineers and engineering trainees

Training Methodology: Oil & Gas Industry case studies, series of class short and long exercises, team working, presentation, video, quiz, use of visuals and snapshots, critical appraisal and rapid response assessment based on a situational analysis.
