DE1075 : IPM (Integrated Production Modelling)

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 Integrated Production Modelling. It covers the integrated production system and its importance in field development; the components of the production system including data integration and workflow optimization; the PROSPER software, wellbore pressure losses, PVT analysis in PROSPER and vertical lift performance (VLP) correlations; the inflow performance models, skin effect and gravel pack design; the principles of gas lift operation and electric submersible pumps (ESP); the selection criteria for artificial lift methods and economic considerations in lift selection; and the monitoring and performance evaluation.
Further, the course will also discuss the MBAL software and types of aquifer models; the history matching techniques and setting up prediction scenarios; incorporating VLP and IPR data from PROSPER, operational constraints and forecasting results analysis; modelling complex reservoir systems, handling multiple PVT regions and integrating strategies in MBAL; the GAP software and surface network modelling; building surface network models, generating and interpreting performance curves and analyzing system bottlenecks; and optimizing network performance and exporting data for further analysis.
During this interactive course, participants will learn the well test data and allocating production to individual wells; handling measurement uncertainties and reporting and visualization tools; the constraints at various network levels and optimizing gas lift allocation; analyzing scenario for field development and integrated modelling concepts; and the field development planning, artificial lift impact analysis, optimization strategies and forecasting and uncertainty management.
