Reservoir Engineering
New Opportunities in Old Fields
Mature fields frequently hold additional value that can be captured cheaply thanks to existing wells and infrastructure. This course works through how to spot that upside, quantify the reserves involved, compare exploitation options and test depletion scenarios economically. Case studies and computer-based problems cover a wide range of reservoir types.
