Reservoir Fluid Properties: Preparation for Reservoir Engineering and Simulation Studies - RFP
Program Overview
This foundation-level course provides reservoir, production, and facilities engineers with the knowledge and skills to model the flow of oil, gas, and water in reservoirs, wellbores, and surface facilities. The course covers both conventional and unconventional reservoirs and includes extensive exercises and equations of state calculations.

- Teaching Methods:
- Extensive exercises are used to illustrate the principles and to test the consistency of measured data.
- Participants are encouraged to bring their own PVT laboratory data to deconstruct in class.
- Equations of State calculations are introduced, and a tuning exercise is conducted on commercial software.
Other:
- Target Audience: Reservoir, production and facilities engineers who have a need to model the flow of oil, gas and water through reservoirs, wellbores, and surface facilities.
- You Will Learn:
- Identify the type of fluid in a particular reservoir and predict how that fluid will behave during production
- Read and QC PVT Reports
- Use correlations to determine values of fluid properties in the absence of laboratory data
