Introduction
This 5-day course emphasizes the role of the Well, as part of the Integrated Production System for a Hydrocarbon Asset. Well Completion design concepts and the technical selection criteria for the main completion components are reviewed in detail. The last two days of the Courses is spent on the completed well’s Flow behavior and the key parameters affecting Well Performance/Productivity. Group exercises on Completion and Performance augment the learning process. The course also highlights the Operating Company’s viewpoint in the area of Well Completion and Well Production Management
By the end of the course, participants should be able to: State how Well Completion fits into the E&P Activity; Recall and discuss hydrocarbon exploitation considerations for well productivity and completion design; Describe the main parameters that influences Well Performance and Productivity; Describe the factors that influence the selection and design of the completion string and components; Carry out a completion design and explain how it will be run in the well.
Objectives
- Evaluate for a given reservoir scenario the bottom hole completion options and make a recommendation based on well integrity and reservoir management requirements
- Identify, evaluate and recommend functional capability of completion strings for a variety of situations
- Describe the purpose and generic operating principles for major completion equipment components
- Identify the limitation of well completion schematically designs and potential failure mechanisms/operational problems with equipment
- Assess well safety requirements and capabilities inherent in well design
- Describe the integration of the various stages of completing a well
- List and flow chart a general procedure to run a completion string
- Describe the requirements to pressure test and retain well control throughout the completion process
- Define the need for full and accurate reporting and records to be kept
By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:
Training Methodology
The program is delivered in a combination of lecture-style and computer-based training. In addition, a significant amount of time is set aside for small working group activity when addressing case study problems. Extensive use is made of case study material to underline the key aspects of the course and to give the delegates exposure to current best practice.
Who Should Attend?
Geo-scientists, Engineers and Managers (in Drilling, Well Intervention/Services, Reservoir Engineering, Production Operations, Marketing/Sales etc.), whose jobs require them to interface with Completion Engineers, Production Technologists, Well Production Operations Engineers, and Well Maintenance/Servicing Engineers who wish to enhance their current job effectiveness, through more knowledge on Well Completion and Performance, than that attained from their own "core" discipline training and exposure.
