INTEGRATED FIELD DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
Field development is becoming much more complex and expensive, so getting it right is critical. NExT offers four different FDP
programs, each providing the opportunity to learn fundamental approaches in developing and working an FDP. The program
incorporates the latest technologies and software to enable customers to design a suitable, long-term, and proftable develop-
ment strategy.
NExT offers FDP training that accelerates and transforms technical skills. It
builds expertise in FDP techniques, tools, and workfows that are needed
to address the challenges of feld developments.
This training is unique because it includes theory, software training,
model building, workfows, and an in-class project designed to reinforce
lessons and demonstrate the acquired practical skills and understanding.
The immersive, comprehensive curriculum starts from general
understanding and extends to in-depth feld assessment with economics,
risk, and standard analysis techniques that provide a complete
understanding of FDP.

Integrated Production and
Well Operations Modeling
Using a Physical Simulator
Foundation 5Days
In this course, an oil well simulator is
used to detail many of the operations
that take place in a well. This course/
workshop consists of theoretical (50%)
and practical (50%) sessions with
experienced professionals. The attendees
will si mulate the operation of different
artifcial lift systems used to produce oil
(electric submersible pumps [ESP], gas
lift, progressive cavity pumps) under
several operating conditions and their
effects on the production system. Water
and air are used to simulate two-phase
fow (oil and gas). The standard
confguration of the oilwell simulator
uses an ESP with a variable speed
drive, allowing for variation of the pump
speed. This feature is used to optimize
production and well performance. A
workover operation can be performed by
changing the artifcial lift system from
ESP to gas lift. The confguration of the
oilwell laboratory allows for visualization
of the reservoir, wellbore, fow lines,
choke performance, and most common
artifcial lift systems. Additionally, the
effects of damage removal, pump speed,
gas injection rates, and down hole
pressure can be analyzed to generate
optimization opportunities.

Software Technical courses that use software Includes practical sessions Field trips Uses simulation
Skill 3Days
This course extends the materials
covered in the OFM software
fundamentals course and introduces two
key areas of functionality: forecasting
and mapping. The course introduces
the attendees to a wide variety of
map-based visualizationsbubble, grid,
contour, scatter, and surface maps. In
forecasting the OFM software offers a
highly interactive module for the user
to history match and subsequently
forecast production. The widely used
Arps technique is covered, and attendees
create forecasts using a variety of
assumptions. In addition to single-phase
(oil, gas) forecasts, the course covers
ratio forecasts. Additional techniques
such as calculated forecasts, together
with how to generate effective use of the
results are explained. Although plots and
reports are valid utilities for monitoring
and surveillance, presenting data and
calculation results in the form of a map
is infnitely more effective. Vast amounts
of information can be absorbed very
quickly. Waterfooding is a universally
popular method of secondary recovery.
For waterfood operations, all calculations
need to be made on a reservoir volume
basis. This course introduces PVT as
a way of achieving this goal. Pattern
creation and management techniques
are now possible. A range of diagnostic
techniques is introduced as a means of
illustrating the underlying capabilities of
the application.

Petrel Well Deliverability
Skill 1Day
This course builds on the Petrel platform
reservoir engineering course and is
an extension of the well modeling
environment within the Petrel platform
software suite. The course provides
support for existing reservoir engineering
workfows such as development strategy
and feld management. Two main
production workfows are discussed in
the course: performance table collection
and nodal analysis simulation. Attendees
will learn how to use reservoir simulated
variables as input data for creating
performance tables and running a
nodal analysis case. The integration of
production simulated variables to support
reservoir engineering workfows will be
demonstrated by creating performance
(VFP) tables within the Petrel suite
and associating the results with the
development strategy process. In this
way, an integrated reservoir-production
engineering cycle is completed without
leaving the Petrel platform environment.
The attendees will also learn how to use
nodal analysis simulation to introduce
several infow performance relationship
models for pressure and temperature
traverse. When running the nodal
analysis case, attendees will learn how to
create profle plots, such as liquid holdup,
erosional velocity ratio, fuid mean
velocity, and so forth.

WHICH COURSE IS RIGHT FOR ME?
NExTs courses are organized into a convenient table by their technical
discipline grouping and match the intended audience.
AWARENESS: Tailored for nontechnical professionals who need an
overview of technical topics and broad understanding of a domain or
software applications.
FOUNDATION: Geared to technical professionals, including
engineers, geoscientists, or operations personnel, who need an
introduction to technical theory, techniques, or applied software use.
Foundation courses frequently include exercises that require advanced
understanding or abilities in math and physics.
SKILL: Designed for practicing technical professionals who are
experienced in the technical discipline and software or are seeking to
cross train.
ADVANCED: Engineered for experienced professionals who need to
focus on new techniques and problems..

Where do you want your classroom to be?
With a carefully selected portfolio of practical, high-quality feld trips
covering relevant depositional and tectonic environments, NExT meets
the needs of working geologists and petroleum engineers and the
companies that rely on them to meet their goals.
Geology can be studied in the classroom, but it can be better understood
in the feld. Learning by doing puts things into their proper scale, context,
and perspective. Examining frst hand the results of time, weather, and
tectonic forces allows geoscientists to gain greater insight into the
formation of reservoirs.
