Introduction
  • This  five-day  course  is  intended  to  cover  different  aspects  of  crude  oil  production

    right   from   the   exploration   stage.   The   course   will   cover   exploration,   drilling

    technology,  various  types  of  well  completion  and  testing  methods,  artificial  lift,

    reservoir pressure maintenance practices, work-over, well stimulation and production.

    Deep-water  Technology,  being  latest,  is  also  included.  The  theory  and  practical

    aspects of geology, completion in horizontal and vertical well, multilateral wells, rig

    layout- components, various types of fluids used in drilling, work-over operations, and

    various well stimulation techniques will be discussed.

    A highly interactive combination of lectures and discussion sessions will be managed

    to  maximize  the  amount  and  quality  of  information  and  knowledge  transfer.  The

    sessions will start by raising the most relevant questions, and motivate everybody to

    find  the  right  answers.  The  delegates  will  also  be  encouraged  to  raise  their  own questions and share in the development of the right answers using their own analysis

    and experiences.

and complete the training course.

Methodology

Our courses are highly interactive, typically taking a case study approach that

we   have   found   to   be   an   effective   method   of   fostering   discussions  and

transferring knowledge. Participants will learn by active participation during the

program through the use of individual exercises, questionnaires, team exercises,

training  videos  and  discussions  of  “real  life”  issues  in  their  organizations.

The  material  has  been  designed  to  enable  delegates  to  apply  all  of  the

material with immediate effect back in the workplace.
