Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs) and Their Role in Oil & Gas
Premium Webinar
For PEA Members Only
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.

What Can PTA Tell You About Your Reservoir?
Pressure Transient Analysis (PTA) is a powerful tool for reservoir characterization — and it can tell you far more than permeability, reservoir contact, and skin factor. But to unlock its advanced capabilities, the analyst needs a solid grasp of the diagnostic features of pressure and derivative responses: how they relate to flow regimes, and how the static and dynamic features of a reservoir generate those regimes at different stages of depletion. Without that context, history matching pressure responses or fitting straight lines to portions of the data may return parameter estimates while missing the bigger picture entirely.This webinar makes the case for PTA as a reservoir characterization tool, shows its proper and improper use through worked examples, and highlights just how underused it remains in practice.Slides & Material — Copyright: All content in this session is copyrighted by Prof. Erdal Ozkan.
