Oil and Gas Field Operations: Gas Processing, Hydrates, Dehydration, Sweetening, NGL Recovery and Fractionation, Oil Production, Stabilization, Meter Proving, Cargo Calculations and Flow Measurement

Introduction

  • This course will provide the participants with an integrated view of the oil and gas production and related facilities during the life of the reservoir. It will present an overview/fundamental understanding of the wide range of oilfield production handling and treatment equipment. With this view and tools and knowledge on the properties and flow of the fluids provided in this course, the participant will be able to understand the behavior of the fluids from the reservoir up to end-users.
  • The training gives strong emphasis of the calculation of reserves, fluids properties from reservoir through gathering network. This knowledge is necessary for the surface facility engineer to design or operate the equipments and facilities.

Objectives

    The Primary Objectives of the Course are to:

    • Familiarize the participants with global oil & gas related statistics, such as reserves, production, consumption, and exports.
    • Familiarize the participants with both upstream, middle stream, and downstream operations and related facilities.
    • Familiarize the participants with various methods and techniques used to explore, drill, produce, treat and transport oil, gas, and their products.
    • Understand the oil & gas operations of various field facilities from the wellhead, flow lines, separators, tanks, pumps and compressors, pipelines, gas treatment and processing, refinery operations, etc.
    • Understand the basic concept with regards to evaluating oil & gas reserves, artificial lift, and enhancing recovery.
    • Understand the challenge associated with this industry such as offshore operations, horizontal drilling, and other safety concerns.
    • Get a general feel for petroleum economics and risk analysis. 

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?

The course is designed for oil & gas production field personnel, operations, process and maintenance supervisors, technicians, support engineers, and engineering trainees. It would also be of benefit to safety and other support staff who have an interest in increasing their understanding of Oil & Gas Operations.
