Overview
What you will learn
After completing the Well performance using nodal system analysis and contemporary challenges course offered by Khalifa University, the attendees will be able to:
- Apply nodal system analysis to determine performance of a well under a range of operating conditions.
- Evaluate the factors limiting the well productivity and provide mitigations techniques.
- Analyze the well performance using supplementary wellbore diagnostic tools.
- Understand and apply the nodal analysis approach to address contemporary challenges
- Design the production system using given datasets and theories learnt.
Programme Structure
The program focuses on:
- The petroleum production system
- Nodal system analysis (the origin, concepts, approach, and constraints)
- Methods to govern the IPR (inflow performance relationship) for undersaturated and saturated oil reservoirs, for water-driven oil reservoirs, gas reservoirs
- Outflow performance relationships
- Correlations for multiphase flow in wellbores
- Problem well analysis
- Wellbore diagnostic tools
- Production logging tools
- Well test interpretation (transient and deliverability tests)
- Factors influencing IPR and OPR
- Accounting for damage and stimulation
- Accounting for completion design
- Decline curve analysis for future performance
- Contemporary challenges pertinent to well performance
