Course overview
Well Testing is sets of planned activities to enable us establish the properties and characteristics of a well behavior through data acquisition. Production / Injection well testing is a routine activity in the oil and gas industry and is key in effective monitoring or health-check of the state of our wells. Since this activity is routine based, we constantly lose sight of the essentials of a quality well test especially in good data acquisition practice, overtime.
This training course on Essentials of Surface Well Test Design & Execution will highlight these essentials and proffer an improvement system as well as a sustainable process for a high performing team in well test design and execution.
AÂ basic introduction to well test interpretation will be provided.
