The objective of this course is to introduce learners from disciplines of the Petroleum Engineering and Process Engineering to the key concepts and principles of Petroleum Production, Fluids, and HSE in operations and wellsite activities followed in Oil & Gas industry. Working knowledge of Petroleum Fluid types, wellsite production activities, field production operations, production monitoring and concepts of offshore production is imparted in this course. The domain of Upstream Petroleum Production is large and involves multiple disciplines at a time.

OVERVIEW

Petroleum Production Engineering & Operations is designed as an intermediate course, which consists of different components of oil & gas production. Course outline will help learners understand answers to following broad questions.

  • Which fluid is being produced, its properties and treatment requirement?
  • What are wellsite production activities, parameters recording & monitoring?
  • What are general Health Safety & Environment (HSE) applicable in Petroleum Production?
  • What do you monitor, analyze & diagnose in Production domain?
  • What components the field operations involve such as group gathering, transportation, storage etc.
  • What is different in case of Offshore Production activities?

FIELD ASPECT

  • Activities & processes followed in the areas of Petroleum Production.
  • Data & information which is gathered in Production operations.
  • Field and industrial application of Petroleum engineering knowledge & techniques.

This is an excellent way to give learners what they need to develop a basic understanding of Upstream Petroleum Production Operations.
