Course Overview

Well testing simply refers to system of ‘Health Check’ on condition of a well. In most assets globally well test is done at least once a month on all producing strings as this forms the basis for decision making in an operating environment. Effective Well test design, Data acquisition and interpretation is crucial in this process. Poor well testing process results in serious operational challenges for most assets including production optimization, allocation and many more challenges. This course is designed to address and manage such limitations as well as provide the needed flexibility for operators to get the set objectives right. Based on industry best practice, this course will equally highlight some of the common challenges on well testing and proffer mitigations that fits into the overall Operation Optimization process in order to facilitate improved definition, selection, design, operation and troubleshooting, resulting in profitability for the asset..
