Description
About this training course
Artificial lift systems are an important part of production operations for the entire lifecycle of an asset. Often, oil and gas wells require artificial lift for most of the life cycle. This 5-day training course offers a thorough treatment of artificial lift techniques including design and operation for production optimization. With the increasing need to optimize dynamic production in highly constrained cost environments, opportunities and issues related to real-time measurements and optimization techniques needs to be discussed and understood. Artificial lift selection and life cycle analysis are covered. These concepts are discussed and reinforced using case studies, quizzing tools, and exercises with software. Participants solve examples and class problems throughout the course. Animations and videos reinforce the concepts under discussion.
Understanding of these important production concepts is a must have to exploit the existing assets profitably.
Unique Features:
Hands-on usage of SNAP Software to solve gas-lift exercises
Discussion on digital oil field
Machine learning applications in gas-lift optimization
TRAINING OBJECTIVES
After the completion of this training course, participants will be able to:
Understand the basics and advanced concepts of each form of artificial lift systems including application envelope, relative strengths, and weaknesses
Easily recognize the different components from downhole to the surface and their basic structural and operational features
Design and analyze different components using appropriate software tools
Understand challenges facing artificial lift applications and the mitigation of these challenges during selection, design, and operation
Learn about the role of digital oilfield tools and techniques and their applications in artificial lift and production optimization
Learn about use cases of Machine learning and artificial intelligence in the artificial lift
TARGET AUDIENCE
This training course is suitable and will greatly benefit the following specific groups:
Production, reservoir, completion, drilling and facilities engineers, analysts, and operators
Anyone interested in learning about selection, design, analysis and optimum operation of artificial lift and related production systems will benefit from this course.

TRAINING METHODS
The training instructor relies on a highly interactive training method to enhance the learning process. This method ensures that all participants gain a complete understanding of all the topics covered. The training environment is highly stimulating, challenging, and effective because the participants will learn by case studies which will allow them to apply the material taught in their own organization.
Course Duration: 5 days in total (35 hours).
