New and administrative staff in the oil & gas business, or staff in organizations working with the oil industry, often has insufficient understanding of the “upstream” part of the business. This course provides a full overview of exploration for hydrocarbons, field development and operations, processing and transportation of oil and gas. The history of the business, project economics and global and political issues are also discussed.
o History of the oil & gas business, technology breakthroughs
o Major players in the industry
o Activities in E&P
o Global energy resources
o Oil price review and scenario's
o Global issues, PR and environment
o Exploration, Subsurface evaluation tools 1: Hydrocarbon basins/plays and the origin of hydrocarbons
o Subsurface evaluation tools 2: Seismic
o The Texel Development Project 2: Volumetric uncertainty
o Basic drilling technology
o Reservoir data gathering 1, well logging, petrophysical analysis
o Reservoir data gathering 2: logs, pressures, core analysis, well testing
o Static models introduction, volumetrics, uncertainty and appraisal
o The Texel Development Project 3: Appraisal Given the results of the exploration well and 3D seismic, make an appraisal plan.
o Dynamic reservoir models, reservoir engineering
o Well completion technology, horizontal wells, artificial lift, fracking
o Development planning: team exercise subsurface development options
o The Texel Development Project 4: Given the static reservoir model and well performance, select development scenario's. A production forecast will be prepared based on one of these scenario's.
o Surface facilities and engineering 1 : Oil & gas processing
o Film: Troll Field , "The last of the giants"
o Surface facilities and engineering 2: Production facilities, Field operations
o The Texel Development Project 5: Select surface development options. Given the production profile and facilities costs, prepare basic facilities design and a project schedule, and calculate the phased costs.
o Basic project economics and financial performance indicators.
o The Texel Development Project 6: Given phased project costs, production forecast and commercial and tax terms, calculate project economics and sensitivities using an Excel economics spreadsheet.
o Course review and round-up
Instructor has over 36 years of experience in the oil and gas industry, with broad expertise in Petroleum Engineering and integrated production systems from subsurface to surface. He has held roles in Production Technology, R&D, Production Chemistry, Rock Mechanics, and Reservoir Engineering (cEOR), with strong experience in field development, well design, and production system optimization. He has worked internationally, including assignments in NAM, Oman, Gabon, and Nigeria. Passionate about teaching, he has served in Shell Learning and as a Learning & Development advisor, developing and delivering technical training programs. He holds a BSc in Chemical Engineering and an MSc in Physical Chemistry.

o Intermediate
At the end of the course participants will have a good but general understanding of the 'upstream' oil and gas business: how hydrocarbons are found, developed, produced and treated prior to sales.
