Course Description:
This course improves the recovery from calcareous and sandy oil reservoir by acidzing & hydraulic fracturing. It enables one to timely select the most beneficial method & set realistic exceptions on production behavior changes and recovery improvement.
Course Goal:
To enhance the participants’ knowledge, skills and abilities necessary for improving calcareous & sandy oil reservoirs
Course Objectives:
By the end of this course, the participant will be able to:
- Evaluate the reservoir before the treatment.
- Identify and study the causes of formation damage
- Execute & design acidizing & hydraulic fracturing for both carbonate & sandstone reservoirs
