Course Description
This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshop.
This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Introduction to Hydrocarbon Exploration and Production. It covers the economic and strategic importance of oil and gas industry; the overview of the upstream, midstream and downstream sectors and the fundamental concepts in petroleum geology; the types of rock, sedimentary basins and processes of formation of oil and gas reservoirs; the seismic methods for hydrocarbon exploration; the seismic data collection, processing and interpretation; and the drilling processes, well logging and techniques and tools used to evaluate the geological formations.
Further, the course will also discuss the risks and uncertainties associated with hydrocarbon exploration; the geological risks, technical challenges and economic considerations; the reservoir engineering concepts including reservoir properties, fluid dynamics and the mechanisms of hydrocarbon storage and flow; the production systems and equipment used in hydrocarbon production; the wellheads, gathering systems and separation facilities; the basic principles and applications of artificial lift technologies; and the rod pumps, gas lift and electric submersible pumps to enhance oil and gas production.
