PRODUCTION OPERATIONS (OIL FIELD OPERATIONS)

COURSE OVERVIEW & LEARNING OUTCOMES

The Production Operations course (also called Oil Field Operations) covers the spectrum of both the foundational and intermediate levels of field production engineering.  Course participants will become familiar with the important facets of field operations and cross trains the different disciplines making up field personnel to gain an understanding of field operations and speak intelligently about it.  Part of the afternoon session is dedicated to hands-on practice examples, while participants are encouraged to bring up field issues for discussion.

  • Comprehend reservoir flow, drilling and work over operations, significance, and equipment. 

  • Understand production reports and other documents that are typically produced in field operations

  • Grapple with acronyms and jargon, and recognize that they are not the only one who do not understand them

  • Relate fluids, pressure and rate concepts in field operations

  • Understand oil and gas, and water processing equipment, stages and products therefrom.

  • Recognize the function of equipment items, procedures, electrical, instrumentation and mechanical devices used in the oilfields

  • Recognize practices that improve efficiency in operations.

  • Be able to read and interpret PFDs and P&IDs 

  • Gain better appreciation of safety hazards in the field, and measures and mitigation.
