Well Testing and Geosteering Technology Course
Introduction:
The course emphasizes the practical application of well test theory to the solution of real well testing problems from design through interpretation for oil, gas, and water injection wells. Participants will be introduced to a systematic approach to well test analysis and will apply it using modern well test analysis software. Numerous datasets with non‐ideal behavior will be reviewed and analyzed to allow participants to gain experience with real-world problems. Participants will be able to apply their newly acquired skills in their job assignments immediately upon course completion.
Course Objectives:
Design well tests and specify equipment requirements
- Set up and analyze well tests for oil and gas well using traditional and modern well testing analysis techniques
- Perform QC analysis of pressure data; identify and discard “bad” data • Identify various wellbore and reservoir characteristics and choose the appropriate model for analysis
Who Should Attend?
Petroleum geologists, petrophysicists, petroleum engineers and geophysicists.
Course Outlines:
Pressure transient theory, drawdown analytical solution, the principle of superposition, pressure buildup analytical solution. Application of pressure transient theory and solutions. Well testing practical issues, wellbore storage, skin and radius of investigation. Geotype curves. Numerical well testing, well test forward modeling. Well test design. Integration of well-test and geology. Measures of special correlation from well-test data. Upscaling from core to well permeability. Conditioning reservoir simulation models to well-test data. Field trip to outcrop analog.
