NExT subsurface integration program (NSIP)
Multidisciplinary reservoir characterization
Our highly acclaimed, nine-month, premium training program, NSIP, has been designed to maximize learning-by-doing for the individual while generating solutions to company projects that deliver a real return on the investment for the program.
This flagship project-based program delivers
- staff with proven practical skills in reservoir characterization
- solutions to complex reservoir problems
- workflow processes to predict reservoir flow units and capacity efficiently.
It is particularly applicable for
- characterization of exploration appraisal wells
- early understanding of development projects
- characterizing and identifying new opportunities in mature fields, including evaluating advanced recovery processes.
The NSIP is based on the BP-Amoco Petrophysics program that ran for almost 30 years until it was added to NExT’s training portfolio in 2000. Since then, the focus on multidisciplinary, project-based work in subsurface integration has been maintained while the program’s design, content, and execution have been extensively enhanced.
Today, NSIP is a multidisciplinary project-based program with 20-plus learning modules that are centered on your organization’s subsurface project needs, proprietary data, and objectives. The program is currently offered at the University of Tulsa in the USA.
Attendance on NSIP and the completion of four additional graduate courses entitle participants to receive an accredited Master of Science in Petrophysics† from the University of Tulsa.
†Acceptance on the university graduate program is required.
