Introduction

Training course introducion / brief

Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)

Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) is a crucial method to increase oil production from mature and declining fields. EOR techniques help extract additional oil that cannot be recovered through primary and secondary methods, improving field productivity and maximizing reservoir potential. Understanding the fundamentals of EOR is essential for oil and gas professionals to select the right methods and optimize operations. Skilled application of EOR techniques can lead to better recovery rates and long-term production efficiency.

This training program covers the essential principles and practices of Enhanced Oil Recovery (ORE). The course includes an overview of EOR methods, selection criteria, planning, implementation, and optimization strategies. Each day focuses on a core topic with detailed subtopics for practical understanding. The program features interactive discussions, real-world case studies, and exercises to help participants apply their knowledge in field operations.

Training Course Methodology

This course is designed to be interactive and participatory, and includes various learning tools to enable the participants to function effectively and efficiently. The course will use sessions, exercises, and case applications, and presentation about proven-by-practice methods, new insights and ideas about the topic and its effects in a corporate world.

Understand the basic concepts and types of EOR techniques.
Learn how to select suitable EOR methods based on reservoir conditions.
Gain skills in planning and implementing EOR projects.
Identify common operational challenges and effective solutions.
Optimize EOR operations to enhance oil recovery rates.
