Objective:
Understanding the fundamental concepts of well test analysis and becoming familiar with recent advances in well test interpretation. The methodology described in the course, which has become the standard of the industry, presents a systematic way of interpreting well tests and reconciles the various methods that have been developed over the years. Practical problem-solving sessions are included in the course.
Audience:
Targeted at reservoir engineers, production engineers, and geoscientists with prior experience in well testing, this course is ideal for professionals seeking to enhance their expertise in interpreting complex test scenarios and applying results to field development.
Methodology:
The course is delivered through live online sessions combining lectures, practical exercises, and real case studies. Participants will work with interpretation software and diagnostic tools to solve realistic well testing problems.
Scope:
Participants will explore advanced models, including dual-porosity, multiphase flow, and complex boundary conditions. The course emphasizes diagnostic plots, model matching, and the integration of well test data with geological and reservoir models.
