COURSE OVERVIEW
This Course “RESERVOIR ENGINEERING III” is aimed at providing the learners the basic knowledge of Secondary recovery and then Well Test. We would begin this course with a simple Pre-Introductory quiz, and then we will go into the course proper. We shall look into: An Introductory session, an overview of Petroleum Recovery, and then the Introduction to Secondary recovery, we shall look into the secondary recovery methods; Water flooding/injection, Sweep efficiency Stiles method and Dykstra Parson’s method; Gas Flooding/injection and Gas Lifting. On the next section, we will be discussing about Well Test.
In summary, this course will consist of the following Modules and Lessons.
