PROGRAM'S BACKGROUND


This program provides the learner with the required technical background for an efficient and rapid integration. The purpose of this program is to present an overview and fundamental understanding of the wide range of oilfield surface production operations, Artificial Lift Systems (ALS) and treatment equipment. This program blends lecture, hands-on exercises, and program teaching styles to enhance learning. Participants will learn how to design and analyze artificial lift designs, which should improve performance and result in higher production rates and/or reduced operating costs. Participants learn how to design and troubleshoot rod pumping, continuous gas lift, and electric submersible pump systems. Other methods such as PCP, plunger lift, jet pump, hydraulic pump, and intermittent gas lift will also be addressed.

Participants will gain experience in solving problems by hand and also by using advanced computer programs. Troubleshooting is an important part of artificial lift operations and several typical surveillance problems are solved. With increased prices, more emphasis is placed on techniques to maximize production. New developments at various stages of application are also covered. Moreover, this program covers the practical aspects of artificial lift in conventional production systems and is designed for field operators, foremen, engineers or anyone directly involved in oil production using artificial lift systems.
