Learn Reservoir Engineering : Well Test Interpretation
What you'll learn
- Master pressure transient analysis fundamentals
- Gain hands-on Kappa Saphir software skills
- Interpret well test data confidently
- Optimize reservoir performance insights
Requirements
- Basic reservoir engineering knowledge
Description
This hands-on course provides a comprehensive introduction to Pressure Transient Analysis (PTA) using Kappa Saphir, the industry-leading well test interpretation software. Designed for engineers and geoscientists, the program combines fundamental theory with practical, real-world application to ensure participants gain both conceptual understanding and actionable skills.
Through structured modules, you will learn to:
Import, quality-check, and prepare well test data for analysis.
Interpret diagnostic plots (log-log, derivative, pressure history) to identify flow regimes, reservoir boundaries, and heterogeneities.
Build and calibrate dynamic reservoir models using Kappa Saphir’s advanced tools.
Validate results through sensitivity analysis and uncertainty assessment.
Apply PTA insights to optimize well performance and field development strategies.
The course emphasizes learning by doing, featuring:
1. Interactive software demonstrations with step-by-step guidance.
2. Real-world case studies (e.g., fractured wells, gas reservoirs).
3. Hands-on exercises to reinforce key concepts.
4. Q&A sessions to troubleshoot challenges and problems
By the end, you will be able to confidently leverage Kappa Saphir for PTA, transforming raw data into reliable reservoir insights. Whether you’re a beginner or seeking to refine your skills, this training equips you with practical expertise for immediate workplace impact.
Format: Instructor-led sessions, collaborative workshops, and software practice.
Prerequisites: Basic knowledge of reservoir engineering and well testing concepts.
