SUMMARY:Performance Evaluation for Oil and Gas Brown Field
DESCRIPTION:Course & Workshop \nFebruary 5-10\, 2022 \nInstructor : A. SALEM\, P. Eng.\, Ph.D. \n  \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND: \nReservoir Engineers\, Exploration team members\, Production Engineers\, completion engineers\, stimulation engineers\, geologists\, and all support staff who require a more extensive knowledge of unconventional resources. \n\nCOURSE DESCRIPTION: \nAs we deplete conventional oil and gas reserves\, “unconventional” energy resources are increasingly important to international energy supplies. Today\, for example\, coal beds\, shales\, and low permeability (tight) sandstones\, combined\, account for more than 40% of the U.S. natural gas supply. \nMoreover\, in 2006\, U.S. production of coalbed methane\, alone\, exceeded trillion cubic ft (Tcf)\, which was 9.5% of the total dry gas production\, and coalbed methane reserves were 19.9 Tcf\, which was 9.8% of the total U.S. dry gas reserves. Internationally\, there are tremendous heavy oil resources in Eastern Venezuela\, Western Canada\, and other areas\, and we are just beginning to exploit these resources. \nWhile resources of unconventional hydrocarbons are very large\, economically recoverable volumes (reserves) are much smaller\, because the greater costs and additional technology required for production. Many unconventional reservoirs have low matrix permeability\, and natural fractures may be necessary for economic production rates. Therefore\, optimal development of many unconventional reservoirs requires knowledge of the optimal completions and stimulation methods for low permeability reservoirs\, as well as understanding of the role of natural fractures in fluid flow. Thus\, understanding of the geologic and engineering aspects of gas storage reservoirs is vital for optimum resource management. \nThe objectives of this course are to familiarize attendees with the unique aspects of unconventional gas and oil reservoirs\, including their (1) economic significance (2) geologic occurrences\, (3) controls on production\, (4) drilling and completion practices\, (5) reservoir management\, and (6) present activity. \n\nWhat To Learn: \nUnderstand unconventional resource play completion options and selection processes Use key multi-disciplinary tools for successful completions and stimulation in unconventional resources Understand the importance of geo-mechanics and rock mechanics to the success of transverse multiple fractured horizontal wells in unconventional resources Apply principals and design of well stimulation treatments in unconventional resources \nEmploy critical data needs and collection techniques with minimal operational impact \nHow to produce the heavy oil and produce from oi land gas shale reservoir \n\nCOURSE CONTENTS \n\nIntroduction to Unconventional Energy Resources\nWhat are unconventional resources?\nWhere do they occur?\nPotential of the unconventional in North America and worldwide\nEconomic significance of each\nTechnical\, economic\, political\, and\nEnvironmental constraints on development\nLow-permeability (Tight) Sands\nBackground and history\nExtend of potential reserves of tight sands.\nGeological description\nOccurrences\, resources\, reservoir characteristics\nDrilling and completion methods\nFacilities\, reservoir management\, and\nLimitations on development\, present activity\nExploitation of tight sands; primary and secondary\nCoalbed Methane (CBM)\nOccurrences\, resources\, reservoir characteristics\nDrilling and completion methods\nFactors that affect the commerciality of CBM\nMethods to estimate gas content and reserves\nLaboratory tests to estimate total organic content (TOC) and maturity\nProduction mechanism and well productivity estimate\nFacilities\, reservoir management\nUncertainties of formation evaluation\nLimitations on development\, present activity\nWater and environmental issues\nClass problem example\nShale Reservoirs (Gas and Oil)\nBackground and history\nShale gas formation characteristics/description.\nShale maturity and methods to determine type of hydrocarbon potential\nOccurrences\, resources\, reservoir characteristics\nDrilling and completion methods\nTypical well production profile\nPyrolysis analysis of Kerogen\nFacilities\, reservoir management\, and\nLimitations on development\, present activity\nWater and environmental issues\nShale oil vs Oil Shale!
