Introduction
Training course introducion / brief
In the development of a hydrocarbon reservoir, many wells aredrilled and required to be completed, to allow the structure to
be depleted. However, the drilling and completion operations are crucial to the l ong term viability of the wells in meeting the specified objectives.
The design and completion of both production and injection wells are required to satisfy several objectives including:
  • Provision of optimum production/injectionper formance
  • Ensure safety
  • Maximize the integrity and reliability of the completion over the envisaged life of the completedwell
  • Minimize the total costs per unit volume of fluid produced or injected, i.e.
  • Minimize the costs of initial completion, maintaining production and remedial measures
Course Objectives
At the end of the training course, participants will be able to
  • Production Packer functions
  • Packers Types
  • Packers Generic Mechanisms
  • Permanent and Retrievable Packers
