COURSE DESCRIPTION
|
|
The course provides the students with
the basic principles, concepts and equations used in production
engineering to solve artificial lift problems in wells.
Basic equations to study fluid flow from the reservoir
to the surface are derived. The concept of artificial
lift is introduced. Oil and gas surface facilities are
presented. Pumping and surface installation's design is
also given.

OBJECTIVE OF THE COURSE
|
|
The main objective of the course is to
acquaint the students with the concepts, equations, analysis
methods, and tools used in oil production engineering,
that are beyond the flowing well production methods taught
in Production Engineering I course. The other objectives
are to
(a) develop students' ability to apply a quantitative
reasoning to production engineering problems,
(b) develop students' ability to apply an integrated knowledge
of math, physics, geo-sciences and engineering sciences
to the solution of artificial lift design problems,
(c) develop students' ability to design pumping well data,
(d) provide students with a background for more advanced
courses in production engineering.
