Training Petroleum and Petroleum Operation

Petroleum and Hydrocarbon systems found in petroleum reservoirs are known to display multi-phase behavior over wide ranges of pressure and temperatures. The most important phases which is occur in petroleum reservoirs are : liquid phase (crude oil or condensates) and gas phase (natural gases).  This course will explain the fundamentals of petroleum hydrocarbon phase behavior and practical application in petroleum operation of reservoir, drilling-completion, production and processing engineering. Firstly it will reviews the principles of phase behavior and illustrate the use of phase diagram in describing the volumetric behavior of single-component, two-component, and multi-component in petroleum system.

Also it will present numerous graphical correlation for estimating physical and critical properties of the undefined petroleum fraction, evaluation of properties of oil and natural gases.  A complete and cohesive independent unit on methods of determining the crude oil physical properties , presents the concept and application of  vapor-liquid phase equilibria, developments and advanced in the field of empirical equation of state and application in petroleum engineering.

Properly understanding the reservoir petroleum fluid properties is very significant and are very importance steps  during the entire life of the oil and reservoir developments and operations. This three-day training will provide a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of reservoir petroleum fluid properties and application to reservoir and production engineering to keep exellent reservoir and production performance as long as possible, drilling and completion of petroleum reservoir, field processing and pipping system, refinery and petroleum plant processing including notion of petroleum economic.
