Unconventional Reservoirs: Shale Gas & Tight Oil
Sector:
Oil and Gas - Upstream/Production
Technical Focus Area:
Subsurface & Flow
About the Course
This course introduces the technical fundamentals of unconventional reservoirs, covering shale gas and tight oil characterization, hydraulic fracturing design principles, and the production analysis techniques specific to unconventional wells. It suits professionals moving from conventional to unconventional asset work.
Participants examine well spacing, completion design, and production decline behavior typical of unconventional wells, alongside the reservoir characterization challenges posed by low-permeability rock. Case examples illustrate how technical choices affect recovery and economic performance in unconventional developments.
