Introduction to Reservoir Simulation for Non-Specialists

Reservoir simulation has a great impact on the current Oil & Gas industry. It becomes the key element for making a decision about any current or future investment. Simply, reservoir simulation is used to identify any opportunity to increase oil or gas production.

This course is outlined to help and support the non- specialists with the basic features of reservoir simulation engineering. The course illustrates gradually from the basic features of reservoir simulation and up to the special topics used in the reservoir simulation practices. The participants will have a valuable knowledge on the overall petroleum industry, the importance role of reservoir simulation engineer and the way to conduct a simulation study. Furthermore, the course includes the concept of field development plan and special topics of reservoir simulation engineering.

Introduction to Reservoir Simulation for Non-Specialists training course aims to help participants to be able to:

• Gain better knowledge on the overall petroleum industry
• Aware of the role of reservoir simulation engineer
• Understand the importance of reservoir simulation
• Gain more knowledge on fundamentals of reservoir simulation
• Get an overview on the way to conduct a simulation study
• Gain knowledge on some special topics of reservoir simulation engineering
• Get sufficient knowledge through different reservoir simulation case studies

• Non-Technical staff involved in oil & gas industry
• Supporting Technical staff who are working with reservoir engineers
• Team Leaders/Managers involved in oil & gas industry
• Engineers in the field of Reservoir, Petroleum, Field/Production, Facilities/Process and Exploration
• Geoscientists/Petrophysicists and Technologists
• Other persons who are looking to have more knowledge on reservoir simulation engineering features

This training seminar will utilize a variety of proven adult learning techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension and retention of the information presented. The seminar is designed as a blended environment of presentation; workshops; group work; practical exercises; field application/ analysis; and general discussions.

Pre & Post course assessments will be used to measure the effectiveness of this training.
