Description

Designed for you, if you are...

• A petrophysicist
• A reservoir engineer
• A production technologist

How we build your confidence

• The course will be interactive using slides, exercises and videos.
• Participants will be asked to present every morning a recap of the previous day.
• Entry & exit exams will be conducted so participants are able to reflect their own learning.
• Active participation of the participants is a core element of this course.

The benefits from attending

• Why a Production Logging Tool (PLT) survey should be run
• Who are the customers and what are the deliverables
• Planning and selection of hardware
• Risk assessment of a PLT operation
• Quality control of raw data and service company deliverable
• Setup of an interpretation model for single and multi-flow environment

Topics

• Introduction to Well Reservoir Surveillance & Management (WRS/WRM)
• Planning considerations before running a PLT, well type, trajectory, well condition, completion, fluid type and properties
• Basics of production logging, basic and advanced sensors, tools combinations, fluid flow, procedures, single and multiple rate flow, PLT vs. Memory PLT, Run-In and Run-Out
• PLT Examples from oil and gas producers, injectors, hydraulic frac operations

• Standard PLT string (GR,CCL, Caliper, flowmeter, pressure, temperature), sensor physics, environmental considerations, basic interpretation
• Inline and full-bore spinner types, limitations, calibration, background, procedures, considerations
• QC of a field print

• Setting up an PLT interpretation model, input parameters, interpretation zones, calibration zones, fluid properties QC of model
• Single fluid interpretation model
• Multi fluid interpretation model
• QC of an interpretation report

• Array sensor tools (e.g. FlowScan, GHOST, DEFT@SLB) use, limitations, interpretation
• PLT in an injection field environment, methods, considerations, interpretation, Q&A, examples
• PLT in horizontal wells, methods, considerations, interpretation, Q&A, examples

• PLT in hydraulic stimulation environment
• Depth control related to PLT operations (procedures, QC, cables, trajectory, coiled tubing operations…)
• Risk assessment PLT operations (what can go wrong and how to assess the risks and control them beforehand)
