Production logging and Reservoir Monitoring

Introduction:

Production logging provides detailed insights into fluid flow within the wellbore, while reservoir monitoring ensures continuous assessment of reservoir performance to optimize production and maintain reservoir integrity. This training program focuses on providing participants with the necessary skills to assess well performance and monitor reservoir dynamics. It emphasizes techniques for effectively monitoring reservoir conditions to enhance overall oil and gas recovery.

Program Objectives:

At the end of this program, participants will be able to: 

• Analyze processed production logging data to identify key parameters.

• Identify the entry of fluid into the wellbore, determine flow rates, discern fluid types, and recognize associated flow problems.

• Explore various flow patterns and behaviors within the well.

• Measure the flow capacity of the well and optimize flow rates effectively.

• Select appropriate tools for diagnosing well problems and develop optimal solutions.
