Reservoir Management & EOR

Forecast and recover more. Radial flow, well testing, decline curves and simulation, then waterflooding and enhanced oil recovery.

• Reservoir Engineering, Well Testing & Decline Analysis — Understanding and forecasting how reservoirs perform. Learn radial Darcy flow and the steady-state well equation, skin factor, transient flow and the diffusivity equation, pressure drawdown and build-up tests (Horner plot, permeability and skin), flow regimes and boundaries, Arps decline curve analysis (exponential, hyperbolic, harmonic), EUR, reservoir simulation and history matching — with Python for radial inflow, skin impact and a hyperbolic decline forecast.
• Waterflooding & Enhanced Oil Recovery — Recovering the oil that primary production leaves behind. Learn secondary recovery by waterflooding and gas injection, relative permeability and fractional flow, Buckley–Leverett displacement and the Welge tangent, mobility ratio and sweep efficiency, flood patterns, and EOR methods — thermal (steam, SAGD), gas (CO₂ miscible, hydrocarbon), chemical (polymer, surfactant, ASP) — plus CO₂-EOR with storage — with Python for fractional flow, mobility ratio and breakthrough saturation.
