TRAINING COURSE

Successful petroleum operations need a blend of technology, business savvy, and people skills. If you have a firm grasp of exploration or production technology, boost its impact by applying project management techniques. Running a staged program that integrates reservoir modelling, production estimating, drilling, and facility design is challenging. The tools and techniques covered in this course will help you meet that challenge.

Upon completion, you will know how to:

Make better decisions in field development that lead to high value and low cost

Develop integrated plans to run the overall program

Develop key deliverables for each stage of development to reduce uncertainty

Designed For
