DE1073 : Artificial Lift Technology

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. 

 

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Artificial Lift Technology. It covers the purpose of artificial lift and its applications in oil and gas production; the early artificial lift methods and technological advancements in artificial lift; the fundamentals of reservoir performance, types of artificial lift systems and key performance indicators (KPIs) in artificial lift; the health, safety, and environmental (HSE) considerations, rod lift systems and designing and selecting rod lift systems; the rod lift systems, operational challenges with rod lift systems and performance optimization for rod lift; and the rod lift failures and troubleshooting and design and installation of gas lift systems. 

 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the gas lift systems operation, troubleshooting and maintenance; the economic and environmental aspects of gas lift; the advanced gas lift techniques, electrical submersible pumps and ESP systems design, selection, installation and commissioning; the operational considerations for ESPs, future trends of ESP technology and hydraulic lift systems; the hydraulic lift systems and the emerging artificial lift technologies; the digital technologies in artificial lift systems; and the economic evaluation of artificial lift technologies covering cost-benefit analysis for artificial lift methods, life cycle cost analysis and optimization for minimal downtime.
