This unit provides students with advanced knowledge and skills for modelling and forecasting flow performance from the reservoir to the well to the wellhead through various components in the flow line. Topics include hydrocarbon productivity formulations; effects of drilling, completion and stimulation on productivity; oil well performance, gas well performance, tube flow performance and deliverability; flow performance in wellhead and surface gathering systems; production forecast by material balance techniques; well test analysis and interpretation; and well diagnosis and production logging. It involves five components in productions: wellbore, regimes and performance for single and... -- Course Website
