Well Testing, Completion Design & Operation, Well Stimulation and Workover Planning

Introduction

This course is primarily designed for drilling, production and completion engineers and supervisors needing a practical understanding and an appreciation of well completion design and operation, well stimulation and workover planning. It explains how completion configurations are varied to meet well objectives and to maximize well productivity. Design concepts and methods are presented together with downhole tools and their selection criteria.

Objectives

    Completion types and design for vertical, horizontal and multilateral wells, design and optimization of tubing based on tubing performance analysis (Inflow performance analysis, liquid, and gas hold up during fluid flow and forces on tubing), downhole equipment, tubing accessories, wellhead equipment including subsea completion. Also, fluid flow through perforations and perforation techniques; communication tests; wireline operations; reservoir stimulation; and hydraulic fracture treatment design and optimization are extensively reviewedLocal case studies are also provided.

Training Methodology

The course 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?

Well and Senior Petroleum Engineers, Drilling, and senior drilling supervisors, reservoir and senior reservoir engineers, geologists, production and completion engineers and supervisors needing a practical understanding and an appreciation of well completion design and operation, well stimulation and workover planning.

Course Outline

Upon completion of this course the participants will be able to:

  • Know the planning essentials prior to drilling and well completion procedures according to the principles of well completion design
  • Develop the tubing performance curve and optimization of tubing dimensions for maximum by recognizing the methods of interval selection consideration and optimization of tubing dimensions for maximum productions
  • Familiarize with the use of different subsurface completion equipment and accessories in relation to the selection consideration of packers and packer settings
  • Operate the wellhead equipment properly such as geometries and dimensions casing and tubing hangers
  • Identify the different special consideration for horizontal and multilateral completions on wellbore, tubing and casing configuration
  • Learn the components of perforation of oil and gas wells such as completion fishing operations, well stimulation and fracturing, well testing, and well integrity
  • Characterize the various procedures of communication tests
  • Understand the process of wireline operations
  • Detail the elements of reservoir stimulation and be able to increase the knowledge in understanding of stress and rock properties involved in the simulation techniques
