This Field Development Planning course provides participants with an opportunity to learn the fundamental approach for working and writing a Field Development Plan. The plan is a document that is an output of a sequence of decision and discipline based tasks designed to come up with a development plan. It is, also, a basis for coming up with a robust way of developing, producing, and maintaining hydrocarbon resources. A Field Development Plan forms an input for designing associated surface facilities. Combined documents, both subsurface and surface, form the basis for the financial decision. The participants will be introduced to all of the concepts as they are applied to the process of coming up with a development plan in relation to the reservoir life cycle. This course will acquaint engineers, geoscientists, and operating personnel with the basic techniques used by asset management teams.

The course has two instructor:
The first instructor is an independent Reservoir Engineering Consultant providing consultancy, QA, and training worldwide. He previously held senior roles at Shell, including Senior Reserves Consultant and Discipline Lead. He has extensive global experience in reserves management, reservoir simulation, and carbonate reservoirs. He is also a respected trainer and co-author of the PRMS guidelines, with an MSc in Applied Mathematics.
The second instructor has over 27 years of experience at Shell across Europe, the US, and the Middle East. He is an expert in Reservoir Engineering, WRFM, and business development, leading global multidisciplinary teams. He served as Principal Technical Expert at Shell, advancing integrated production optimization approaches.Now an independent consultant, he advises organizations with a focus on practical, value-driven solutions.
This course is designed to for multi-disciplinary asset teams of operating companies comprising of engineers, geoscientists, and managers who are involved in or will be involved in developing hydrocarbon resources.
