Training Surface Well Testing

Course Description

Surface well testing is the only technique available today that assesses the true reservoir potential at full scale under dynamic conditions. It validates well performance during cleanup and commissioning and allows reservoir monitoring for better field management. In this course, participants will learn about a wide variety of surface well testing equipment available for exploration and appraisal operations.

Course Objectives

  • Discussing the theory of well test analysis
  • Identifying main flow regimes and models
  • Carrying out well test analysis
  • Learning about time-saving cleanup operations
  • Simplifying the sea fastening process
