COURSE OVERVIEW

 This practical andhighly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. 

 

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Advanced Well Testing and Interpretation. It covers the importance of well testing in reservoir management; the different fluid types and flow patterns in reservoirs; the pressure transient analysis and how wellbore conditions affect test data; the safety considerations in well testing; the detailed pressure transient analysis and interpretation; the pressure derivative analysis, type curve analysis and rate transient analysis; the effective well test design and planning, interference testing, pulse testing and multi-rate testing; and the wellbore storage, skin effect and gas well testing. 

 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the naturally fractured reservoirs, horizontal well testing and reservoir boundaries and heterogeneities; analyzing pressure transient behavior in different reservoir types; integrating well test data with reservoir simulation; using well test data for reservoir management decisions and real-time well test data interpretation; the pressure transient analysis in unconventional reservoirs; the impact of oil recovery (EOR) on well test interpretation; and the best practices for data handling and reporting.
