Course Description

Integrated Production Modelling is the tool that facilitates the

integration of people and tools resulting in efficient field management.

Engineers can design full-field models of oil or gas production systems

with this technology, including reservoirs, wells, and surface networks. It

helps to look at simulations of the production system to determine optimum

settings for both output and revenue in the field. Integrated Production

Modeling also helps to increase the production optimization process and by

lowering downtime.

What is unique about this course?

  • Practical worked examples and exercises
  • Interactive sessions
  • Workshop style training
  • Real examples and experiences

Course Objectives

The aim of this course is to come an intermediate user of the Petroleum

Experts IPM suite.

In order to do this the delegates will need to become comfortable with the

fundamentals.
