Production System Optimization for onshore conventional oil
Premium Webinar
For PEA Members Only
In the current oil and gas landscape, maximizing production from existing assets is more critical than ever. This webinar moves beyond isolated well thinking to treat production as a holistic, integrated system.
Focused specifically on onshore conventional oil (natural flow), this session bridges the gap between theoretical Nodal Analysis and the practical realities of field operations—like choke management, high wellhead pressure (WHP), and network backpressure constraints.
Whether you are a junior engineer looking for rules of thumb or a senior practitioner needing advanced diagnostic depth, this webinar is designed with a unique dual-track structure. We provide clear operational guidelines for immediate application alongside "Depth Boxes"—deep-dive technical segments for advanced analysis. You will leave not just with theory, but with a repeatable workflow to diagnose bottlenecks and implement quick wins safely.
Webinar Objectives
By the end of this session, attendees will be able to:
Visualize the Integrated System: Explain and map the production journey as a connected system, understanding how changes in one node (Reservoir → Wellbore → Choke → Flowline → Manifold → Separator) impact the entire network.
Diagnose Constraints Accurately: Distinguish between inflow (reservoir) and outflow (tubing/surface) limitations to identify the true active constraint preventing higher production.
Master Choke & WHP Management: Learn to optimize choke sizes and Wellhead Pressure to increase rates without compromising well integrity, flow stability, or reservoir management guidelines.
Apply a Repeatable Optimization Workflow: Implement a standardized 6-step cycle: Baseline → Constraint Ranking → Options → Test → Verify → Sustain.
Develop Field-Ready Action Plans: Translate analysis into action by building a tiered plan that separates immediate "quick wins" from medium-term adjustments and long-term network fixes.

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.
