Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs) and Their Role in Oil & Gas
Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs) are essential tools for visualizing and communicating process design in oil and gas facilities. They provide a clear representation of major equipment, process streams, and operating conditions, serving as the foundation for engineering, operations, and safety planning. This session introduces the key elements of PFDs and highlights their practical role in project development and facility management.
Webinar Objectives
• Understand the structure, symbols, and conventions used in Process Flow Diagrams.
• Recognize the differences between PFDs, P&IDs, and other process documentation.
• Explore how PFDs support design decisions, process optimization, and safety compliance.
• Review examples of PFD applications in upstream, midstream, and downstream operations.
About the Presenter
The session will be conducted by an experienced oil and gas professional with a strong background in process engineering and facility design. With a strong foundation in developing and applying engineering documentation, the presenter offers practical insights into how PFDs support efficient operations and reliable project execution.

Python for PTA: Type curves creation
This webinar equips petroleum engineers with practical Python skills to generate Gringarten type curves for Pressure Transient Analysis (PTA), transforming theoretical reservoir concepts into actionable code. Participants will review the diffusivity equation, explore its analytical solutions, master dimensionless parameters, and implement Python scripts for log-log type curve plotting—essential for estimating permeability, skin factor, and reservoir boundaries from well test data.Ideal for reservoir and production engineers seeking data-driven PTA workflows, the session leverages NumPy, Matplotlib, and hydraulic modeling principles to analyze performance data efficiently. Attendees leave with reusable code templates and real-world applications from field operations.
