DE0371 : Artificial Lift and Challenges

Course Description

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 artificial lift systems. It covers the artificial lift, technology, gas lift design including the criteria for selection of artificial lift system, reservoir performance, natural flow, inflow performance, tubing flow performance and well performance; the artificial lift screening; the components of the electrical submersible system; the installation considerations, cautions, ESP implementation and limitation, design and analysis; and the various types of ESP failure and the causes which can lead to the failure. During this interactive course, participants will learn to troubleshoot, maintain and monitor ESP and PCP in a professional manner; apply ESP well reservoir and performance review, operation, advanced diagnostic techniques, methods, diagnosis and interpretation; recognize PCP systems; carryout design and optimization of downhole PCP systems; identify the components of beam pump system; employ systematic troubleshooting, maintenance, monitoring and best practices for operation; and illustrate component design, system analysis and pump off controllers.
