Advanced Well Test Analysis Using MS Excel
This self-paced course provides advanced practical knowledge in well test analysis, moving beyond basic models to evaluate complex reservoir behaviors. It focuses on using MS Excel to interpret fractured wells, detect reservoir boundaries, and analyze specialized tests like interference and pulse testing.
Description
As reservoir challenges grow in complexity, standard interpretation methods are often insufficient. This e-learning program equips professionals with the advanced analytical skills needed to interpret difficult datasets using MS Excel. Participants will explore critical methodologies for evaluating reservoir limits, analyzing Drill Stem Tests (DST), and characterizing multilayered systems. The curriculum emphasizes the manual construction of diagnostic plots and calculation workflows for interference testing, step-rate injectivity, and fractured well performance, empowering engineers to derive deep reservoir insights without relying on "black box" automated solutions.
Accurate characterization of complex reservoirs requires more than just basic pressure interpretation; it demands a deep understanding of boundary effects and inter-well communication. This course introduces the rigorous workflows necessary to design and analyze advanced well tests. By building these interpretations from scratch in Excel, learners will gain the skills to identify reservoir shapes, quantify damage ratios, and evaluate the effectiveness of stimulation treatments in challenging environments.
Participants will learn to perform advanced well test interpretation using Excel, covering pressure drawdown and buildup analysis for determining reservoir limits and shapes. The course enables learners to evaluate flow efficiency and damage ratios, analyze fracture pressure behaviors, and interpret Type Curves for complex well geometries. Additionally, engineers will acquire the skills to conduct specialized assessments such as interference tests, pulse tests, step-rate injectivity tests, and multilayered reservoir analysis to fully characterize asset performance.
This is a self-paced e-learning program designed to provide expert-level understanding of well test analysis through calculation-based case studies. The methodology focuses on the manual construction of Excel spreadsheets to solve complex engineering problems, providing downloadable templates and exercises that allow professionals to build their own toolkit of advanced analytical solutions.
Organizations will benefit from engineering teams capable of diagnosing complex reservoir issues and validating inter-well connectivity through rigorous data analysis. By equipping staff with the ability to build advanced Excel models, companies can improve the accuracy of reservoir characterization, optimize stimulation designs, and make data-driven decisions regarding field development and well spacing.
You will gain expert technical competence in advanced well testing, mastering the ability to interpret complex pressure signals and boundary conditions. This training enhances your analytical skills in key areas such as fracture evaluation, interference testing, and multilayer analysis, empowering you to solve high-level reservoir challenges independently using MS Excel.
