COURSE OVERVIEW

This practical and highly-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 Production Chemistry. It covers the role of production chemistry in oil and gas industry; the impact of chemical reactions on production efficiency; the composition and properties of produced fluids including the phase behavior and thermodynamics in production chemistry; the water chemistry in oil and gas production; the common chemical reactions in production systems; and the scale formation, deposition and corrosion and its impact on production assets.
Further, the course will also discuss the scale deposition and prevention techniques; the corrosion mechanisms in oilfield systems; the wax and asphaltene deposition in pipelines, hydrate formation and inhibition and emulsions in oil and gas production; the chemical injection strategies in production systems, gas treatment and processing chemistry; the crude oil dehydration and desalting; the enhanced oil recovery (EOR) chemistry; and the chemical compatibility testing and laboratory analysis.
