    Advanced Production Data Analysis and Nodal Analysis

    Predict the rate at which a well should be capable of producing, given reservoir and fluid properties, wellbore configuration, and flowing wellhead pressure. Identify which components of the reservoir/completion/wellbore system are restricting performance; analyze production data to find permeability, skin factor, and drainage area; forecast future performance from historical production trends and from known reservoir properties

    Reservoir and production engineers involved in improving field performance through identification and remediation of under performing wells

    IPR relationships for oil and gas wells

    Effect of completion issues (partial penetration, deviated wellbore, fracture stimulated well and gravel packs) upon IPR curves

    Production data analysis techniques

    Decline curve analysis, future performance estimations

    Knowledge of the steady-state and pseudosteady state forms of Darcy’s law. Basic understanding of welltest analysis, including the ability to identify the early and middle time regions on a log-log plot, Horner graph analysis (for K, skin factor and P ), and Gringarten/Bourdet type curve analysis (for K and skin factor).
