Location: Stavanger
Date: 3 - 7 June 2024
Instructor: Jonathan Bellarby

Participants on this course will derive an understanding of wells and completions, allowing for more accurate production performance assessments, as well as better risk mitigation and management. Key topics include the completions scope and types, inflow performance, perforating, stimulation and sand controls, vertical and artificial lift, production chemistry, well integration and completion equipment and installation.

Participants will learn to:

1. Characterise the causes of formation damage.
2. Be able to produce an optimum perforating strategy (perforation charges, interval and deployment method).
3. Predict the types of well completion that benefit from matrix and fracture stimulation and the types of fluids that are used.
4. Propose the optimum sand control method accounting for the geology, well management, and surface facilities.
5. Integrate vertical lift performance into reservoir performance analysis.
6. Assess where production chemistry problems can pose a major threat to productivity and propose mitigations.
7. Evaluate the risks to well integrity in order to ensure the threat to safety and productivity is managed.
8. Review the types of completion equipment commonly used and where/why they are used.

This course is primarily aimed at intermediate level petroleum and reservoir engineers. The course will also benefit geologists, petrophysicists, and production engineers who need to deepen their understanding of completion and production enhancement techniques.
