Overview
Reservoir engineering plays a vital role in the offshore oil and gas industry. It allows us to assess the scale of oil and gas deposits, and maximise the economic return from safely extracting them.
Join this online Reservoir Engineering course and learn to:
- evaluate subsurface hydrocarbon reservoirs
- contribute to planning, simulations and modelling of real-world assets.
Train with experienced offshore engineers and a university at the heart of the UK energy sector.
Outcomes
By the end of this course, you’ll be able to...
- Describe hydrocarbon compositions and reservoir phase behaviour.
- Assess the economic potential of hydrocarbon reservoirs.
- Measure pressure regimes, fluid gradients and surface tension.
- Explain secondary oil recovery and fractional flow theory.
Programme Structure
You’ll cover the following areas:- Reservoir rock and fluid properties
- Fluid flow in porous media
- Reservoir drive mechanisms and material balance equations (MBEs)
- Aquifers and water influx calculations
