Introduction To Petroleum Engineering
Instructor:
Dr. H. Rabia ,
Dr. Ali Qubian
One week course
Audience: This course is
suitable for Petroleum Engineers, Production Engineers, Reservoir Geologists,
Drilling Engineers, Drilling Supervisors, Asset Team Members and Project
Management Members.
Objectives
Participants at the end of
this course will be able to have a well rounded knowledge of the petroleum
industry from geology, drilling, reservoir engineering to production. They
will be able to understand reservoir rock properties, drive mechanisms, methods of
depletion, well testing and well completion methods.
