Description of this advanced natural gas course
Recent record low prices and forecasts of milder weather ahead signal a gloomy natural gas market. But natural gas isn’t going anywhere. It remains a low-carbon hydrocarbon and the future is bright for its usage as electricity baseload, heating, industrial applications, and even to drive massive data centres. E & P companies may not be making easy profits, but they still produce gas, and the need remains for downhole technical expertise to work and manage projects efficiently. This is where Oak Leaf can help.
Attending our 4-day Natural Gas Production for Technical Staff course will provide you the technical, engineering knowledge for efficiently managing production. A small investment in classroom time can bring big dividends as you learn how to apply well testing concepts & evaluation methods, estimate natural gas reserves, and recognize the implications of emerging unconventional gas plays. Four days with our expert instructor will get you up to speed with topics like resource & reserves estimation and well delivery testing and analysis. The production module is the core of the course with in depth coverage of areas such as wellbore flow, development of energy equations, static bottomhole pressure, flowing bottomhle pressure methods, and much more. The storage and transportation moduled are also detailed with topics like transmission equations and application, compression, flow measurement, storage in pipelines, and LNG storage discussed and demonstrated. The course ends with emerging trends in Natural Gas, including Hydrogen, Ammonia, Hydrates, UCG, Syntheit/manufactured gas & hydrate pellets.
The Natural Gas Production for Technical Staff course will benefit those new to production, those that need a review, and people unfamiliar with recent advances in production techniques.
Reasons to attend the course:
- You are newly employed & need to learn natural gas basics.
- You have returned to the natural gas industry & want to brush up on your knowledge.
- You are experienced in other areas, but natural gas is a new aspect of your job.
- Your function supports the natural gas team, so you require general industry understanding.
What you will learn in the course:
- How natural gas reservoirs are evaluated, tested & produced
- How produced natural gas is transported & stored
- How production techniques differ depending on the play
- Technical reasons why there is a future for natural gas despite present low prices
