Who should attend?

       Petroleum Reservoir and Production Engineers, who are involved in the Applications of Reservoir & Production Operations, Natural Flow, and Artificial, lift systems. Also Production Optimization and completion Design.

Course Objectives                                                                                                           

       This 5-day course teaches the fundamental concepts of Nodal Analysis so that the trainers have the knowledge to optimize production (and injection) operations. The course starts with the basics of Nodal analysis and covers a wide range of topics including Drive mechanism, Inflow & Vertical Lift Performance, Near-Well bore Problems, Well Deliverability, Wellhead and Surface Gathering Systems & Nodal Analysis Applications: tubing sizing Flow line sizing, Perforation Density, Natural and Artificial Lift Optimization, Flow Obstructions and Choking.

       The course supported with photos, videos, animations
