Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and an up-to-date overview of oil reservoirs for enhanced oil recovery screening. It covers the reasons and various processes of enhanced oil recovery; the displacement fundamentals; the phase behavior and the miscible recovery process; the polymer flooding as well as chemical/micellar/surfactant flooding; the thermal processes; and the interpretation of carbon dioxide flooding. Upon the completion of this course, participants will have an understanding of the various processes used for improved oil recovery. You will learn why oil is left in the reservoir after various recovery processes no longer produce economic quantities and what additional processes are available to recover this oil. You will learn how to do a preliminary evaluation to determine which processes might be suitable for a specific reservoir. link to course overview PDF
