production of oil & gas reservoirs so as to obtain a high economic recovery
Responsibilitties of Reservoir Engineer…
• Reservoir engineer also play a central role in field development planning,
recommending appropriate and cost effective reservoir depletion schemes
• Reservoir Engineer should also have know-how about wireline logs interpretation
