About the Course
This course provides an advanced technical grounding in Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR), addressing how to screen reservoirs for suitable EOR methods and design pilots that generate reliable performance data. It is aimed at experienced reservoir and production engineers evaluating incremental recovery opportunities in mature fields.
Participants examine waterflooding, chemical, thermal, and gas injection EOR methods in depth, with emphasis on screening criteria, mechanism selection, and monitoring strategies. Case studies from comparable fields illustrate how EOR decisions translate into improved recovery factors and extended field life.
Learning Milestones
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Screen reservoirs for suitable EOR methods.
- Evaluate waterflood and gas injection performance.
- Design a basic EOR pilot monitoring plan.
- Compare chemical, thermal, and gas injection EOR mechanisms.
- Assess incremental recovery potential from EOR candidates.
- Identify operational risks associated with EOR implementation.
- Present an EOR business case to technical and commercial stakeholders.
