The lifecycle of developed fields, onshore and offshore will go through different stages of production up to the decline into late field life. Effective reservoir engineering management will lead to prolonging the life of field if a cost effective processing surface facilities strategy is put in place. Factors that lead to the decline in oil production or increase in OPEX may include increased water production, solids handling and the need for relatively higher compression requirements for gas lift. In order to maintain productivity and profitability, an effective holistic engineering approach to optimizing the process surface facilities must be utilized. The challenges of Optimizing Mature Field Production are: 1. Reservoir understanding with potential definition of additional reserves 2. Complete re-appraisal of the operability issues in the production facilities 3. Develop confidence to invest to optimize the process handling capabilities and capacity 4. Low CAPEX simplification of the surface facilities infrastructure to meet challenges 5. An implementation plan that recognizes the ‘Brownfield’ complexities 6. Selection of suitable optimum technology, configuration and training 7. Optimum upgrade plan of the facilities with minimum production losses Successful operation of mature fields and their surface facilities requires successful change management to the new operating strategy. Using a holistic approach can maximize the full potential of mature processing facilities at a manageable CAPEX and OPEX.

Big Data is an emerging technology in Information Management that holds promising returns on investment, as it can provide advanced analytics capabilities. It is well suited for large enterprises, and when used properly, it can lead to breakthroughs in analytics, deriving information from data that was previously not possible. However, a Big Data project cannot be approached using traditional IT system design and methods. Its success relies on teamwork and collaboration among petroleum engineering subject matter experts, senior IT professionals, and data scientists. To ensure that Big Data initiatives do not deliver poor results or disappoint, Big Data projects require significant preparation, which dramatically increases the chances of success. This presentation provides practical information about how to get started and what to consider in your plan, and it gives useful tips and examples for planning and executing a Big Data project. At the end of the presentation, attendees will know what Big Data is, what it offers, how to plan such projects, what the roles and responsibilities are for the key project members, and how these projects should be implemented to benefit their organization. Big Data analytics offers enterprises a chance to move beyond simply gathering data to analyzing, mining, and correlating results for insights that translate into business solutions.
Well test analysis has been used for many years to assess well condition and obtain reservoir parameters. With the introduction of pressure-derivative analysis and the development of complex interpretation models that are able to account for detailed geological features, well test analysis has become a very powerful tool for reservoir characterization.
Conditionally accredited by IADC, this intensive four-day course is designed to provide participants with a thorough
knowledge of well integrity management and risk assessment in producing assets.
Based on the regulatory requirements and using real examples and exercises from around the world, this represents best practice integrity management within the
oil and gas industry.
A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE ON STORAGE TANK MANAGEMENT. REGULATIONS HELP MITIGATE RISK TO THE PUBLIC AND THE ENVIRONMENT. THESE RISKS ALSO HAVE A HEFTY FINANCIAL PENALTY ASSOCIATED WITH THEM. HOW SHOULD RISK MITIGATION BE PRIORITIZED?
PRESENTED AT THE 2014 NEW ENGLAND UST & SHOP-FABRICATED STORAGE TANK CONFERENCE WORCESTER, MA, DECEMBER 4, 2014
Workover Optimization & Horizontal Well Intervention 2014LBCG
With unconventional wells typically depleting 65-85% in the first year and another 20% in the subsequent years, there is a growing impetus to optimize and innovate workover and well intervention operations to improve the life of existing wells and restore production to maximize the recovery of costly unconventional wells.
Innovations in coiled tubing, conveyance, eline and logging tools and the introduction of techniques for re-completions may ensure that depleting wells can be recovered and production maximized but such operations are not without significant cost implications and technical challenges. Unpredictable complications throughout production including damaged casing, blocked perforations and broken and lost equipment downhole incur great risk, come at a high cost to repair and can, of course, result in complete failure of the well. Additionally, the economic viability of re-completions operations is still relatively unknown and the technical challenges of re-fracturing are complex.
Operators therefore need to carefully consider the economic gamble in repairing a depleting well or potential in-fill drilling operations against the cost of drilling a new well. A balance must be struck between optimizing the cost and speed of workovers and remedial well intervention, while increasing the long-term effectiveness and safety of operations to reduce the economic risk of repairing wellbores and adequately extend the production time between workovers.
The Workover Optimization & Horizontal Well Intervention 2014 is the only E&P led forum to provide technical talks and case study based strategies on effective optimization and cost reduction of both workovers and remedial well interventions. Senior E&P presenters will examine techniques for optimizing plug drillouts, cleanouts, coiled tubing interventions, casing repairs and fishing and evaluate how to enable re-completions in depleting wells. The content of the detailed two-day agenda has been created entirely by workover and intervention professional across American unconventional oil and gas operators.
Drilling systems automation is the real-time reliance on digital technology in creating a wellbore. It encompasses downhole tools and systems, surface drilling equipment, remote monitoring and the use of models and simulations while drilling. While its scope is large, its potential benefits are impressive, among them: fewer workers exposed to rig-floor hazards, the ability to realize repeatable performance drilling, and lower drilling risk. While drilling systems automation includes new drilling technology, it is most importantly a collaborative infrastructure for performance drilling. In 2008, a small group of engineers and scientists attending an SPE conference noted that automation was becoming a key topic in drilling and they formed a technical section to investigate it further. By 2015, the group reached a membership of sixteen hundred as the technology rapidly gaining acceptance. Why so much interest? The benefits and promises of an automated approach to drilling address the safety and fundamental economics of drilling. What will it take? Among the answers are an open collaborative digital environment at the wellsite, an openness of mind to digital technologies, and modified or new business practices. What are the barriers? The primary barrier is a lack of understanding and a fear of automation. When will it happen? It is happening now. Digital technologies are transforming the infrastructure of the drilling industry. Drilling systems automation uses this infrastructure to deliver safety and performance, and address cost.
The oil and gas industry places great reliance on layers-of-defenses, or barrier thinking, to protect against process safety incidents. Human performance continues to be the single most widely relied on barrier: whether as a defense in its own right, or in implementing, inspecting, maintaining and supporting engineered defenses. Human error, in its many forms, also continues to be a significant threat to the reliability of engineered and organizational defenses. While approaches to developing and assuring layers of defenses strategies have become increasingly formalized and rigorous in recent years, many organizations struggle to know how to ensure the human defenses they rely on are as robust as they reasonably can be when those strategies are developed and implemented. Drawing on the 2005 explosion and fire at the Buncefield fuel storage site as a case study, the presentation considers issues associated with the independence and effectiveness of human defenses. The key idea SPE members should take away from the lecture is that organizations can improve the strength of their human defenses by being clearer about exactly what it is they expect and intend of human performance to protect against threats. The presentation sets out challenges organizations can use to ensure the human defenses they rely on are as robust and reliable as they reasonably can be.
The Completion Engineer integrates the requirements of a number of other disciplines (Reservoir, Drilling, Production, etc) to maximize the value of a hydrocarbon resource. This almost always requires evaluating competing and conflicting factors to determine the 'best' option for a particular problem. This talk will demonstrate a decision making process that allows the stakeholders to compare various options in a fair and roboust way. Two real onshore or offshore examples will be reviewed depending on SPE chapter interest. Members will take away a new methodology on how to compare competing factors that influence a completion or well design.
"Drilling" often refers to all aspects of well construction, including drilling, completions, facilities, construction, the asset team, and other groups. Good performance measures drive performance and reduce conflict between these groups, while bad performance measures mislead and confuse. The first key to success is how to communicate drilling performance in terms that answer the questions of executives and managers, which requires a business-focused cross-functional process. The second key to success is to drive operational performance improvement, which requires a different set of measures with sufficient granularity to define actions. Over the past 10 years, a very workable system has evolved through various approaches used in drilling more than 16,000 wells in the US, South America, and the Middle East. The system has delivered best-in-class performance. It has proven that an effective performance measurement system which addresses both executive requirements and operational requirements can both deliver outstanding results, and also communicate those results, with remarkable value to the organization. The basic principles are widely applicable to areas other than drilling.
In attending this course, participants will gain knowledge and develops skills relating to HPHT Well Engineering. The course focuses on key characteristics and challenges of HPHT wells from well design, planning, engineering and operational perspectives. It covers a range of topics including:
• Well Design - Casing and drillstring design, well barriers, thermal effects, drilling fluid and cement selection
• Operational Planning - Rig selection, BOP equipment issues, rig team training
• Well Delivery – fingerprinting, well bore breathing, high-reliability drilling practices, well control and well abandonment

WELL INTERVENTION AND PRODUCTIVITY SCHOOLpetroEDGE
The Well Intervention & Productivity School (WIPS) is designed to help well intervention specialists, well service supervisors, and petroleum engineers become more aware of the problems that can arise in the planning and execution of well interventions.
This course is designed to make those that attend aware of how their job can directly impact the productivity. Early identification of problems in wells and effective interventions to fix problems can have a significant impact by minimising lost oil through formation damage and non productive time. As well as discussing best practice, time will be made available for discussion relating to specific problems that may be affecting fields operated by members of the class.
The course focuses on the practical applications of various techniques and methodologies in well completion --- from the selection of completion type, perforating strategies, fluid selection, and installation of production heads.
PetroSync - Formation Damage Prevention and TreatmentsPetroSync
This course will educate participants on how to avoid plugging and how to restore wells with plugging problems in the perforations or formation face.Beyond taking steps to eliminate severe permeability reduction in the near wellbore area, the next step is to obtain the best communication of the wellbore with the virgin formation.
This course examines the difficulties, challenges and problems facing today’s deepwater drilling programme designers and personnel where wells are being drilled in increasingly difficult downhole and environmental conditions with ever increasing cost and legislation further contributing to design and operational pressures.
Course Description
The business of fuelling the world through hydrocarbon production must be carried out with optimum profitability. Participants will learn how sand production and inadvertent formation damage can erode these profits. Methods and procedures will be presented to guide the participants in decision making with regard to completing a well with optimum control of formation sand while incurring minimal damage to the well or production zone. Extensive theory will be presented illustrating why certain practices should either be employed or strictly avoided. The very latest in the use of forecasting methods, tools, techniques, and personal experiences will be presented.

The oil & gas industry has had a volatile ride for the last decade. Oil prices have been fluctuating between $30 and $130/bbl and with Shale oil appearing as a serious competitor and LNG positioning itself more as the transitionary fuel of the future. Of course we never knew what we do not know but it seems to be getting more unclear what the future holds, especially for the oil & gas industry. Uncertainty seems to rule, and turbulence of our business environment seems to be reaching a new tipping point year after year, and the end of common strategic planning is in sight.
Distributed Control System (DCS) Applications, Selection & TroubleshootingpetroEDGE
Since the first Distributed Control System was installed in the late 1970’s, the concept of DCS has swept alternative control technologies from the field. The substantial growth, in the construction of plants in the traditional heavy process industries, such as power generation, refining, oil and gas, water and petrochemicals, is driving significant growth in the utilization of DCS. The broad architecture of a solution involves either a direct connection to physical equipment, such as switches, pumps and valves or connection via a fieldbus communication system.

Webinar: Scenario planning for long term decision makingpetroEDGE
When developing a strategy or making investment decisions, there will be many uncertainties that need assessment. These can range from cost and timing issues to broader questions at the macro level, for example political, regulatory or social developments.
A way to get to grips with the latter category is by using ‘scenario analysis’, sometimes called ‘scenario thinking’ or ‘scenario planning’. A scenario in this context is an alternative future: a coherent narrative of a set of developments, trends and events that could unfold within some defined business environment.
A decision to drill an exploration well with the objective to find a new oil or gas field must be based on a sound assessment of the prospect’s risks and of the volumes: what is the chance that a well will find hydrocarbons, and how much could it be? Risk and volume assessments form the basis for decisions to drill a well or not, and as such it is the link between subsurface evaluation and the business aspects of the petroleum industry. This course explains how risks and volumes can be assessed in a realistic and pragmatic manner, based on a sound understanding of the geological details of the prospect as well as of its regional geological setting and our play understanding.
This intensive 2 x 2 week program has been put together to cover Advanced Well Engineering topics. The program intends to uplift the knowledge and skills for engineers, who are or will be directly involved in well and completion design. It will also benefit staff that are or will be working as a member of a day-to-day operations team.
The courses present advanced concepts of drilling and completion operations, plus post-completion enhancement (workovers). Participants will learn to visualize and troubleshoot what is happening downhole, discover what can be accomplished and optimized, and learn how drilling and completions can alter reservoir performance.
The Rig Safety Awareness course features ten e-learning modules, designed for new technical and petroleum engineers going offshore for the first time. The modules will require between 30 to 40 minutes study each.
Each module will also include assessment questions that relate to module’s content. Each e-learning module will be supported by four 2D ‘Walkthrough Events’ where the user is stepped through a series of safety failures that leed to an incident occurrence.
The main objective of this course is to acquire practical skills and tools on how to set up an asset depletion plan through a focused well and reservoir management approach. It is common in many asset teams to have an unclear picture of what future actions should be taken to the different wells and reservoirs as they deplete. In many cases, these actions are reactive rather than proactive. This is mainly due to a lack of a well-defined reservoir management and depletion plan or strategy.
This course presents you with the knowledge and tools to design a depletion plan. Such plan would be consistent with the increased understanding of the reservoir behavior obtained from focused reservoir management. The depletion plan is a comprehensive set of actions that the asset team designs to identify a way forward for every well by identifying future workovers, remedial work, gas lift methods, all the way to well abandonment. And for every reservoir by identifying underdeveloped areas, infill drilling targets, secondary recovery or IOR/EOR applications.
Major changes in 2020 for the global refining industrypetroEDGE
Refiners generally have incentives to upgrade their
refineries, by adding conversion units to produce greater
amounts of clean products (e.g., gasoline, diesel) and
lesser amounts of fuel oil. All else being equal, refiners
with conversion achieve higher margins than simple
refineries without conversion. However, it usually takes at
least four to five years from initial planning to actual startup
of a conversion project.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

5 DAY TRAINING COURSE PLAN
CHARACTERISTICS OF HPHT WELLS
The industry definition of an HPHT well is reviewed
the characteristics that make HPHT wells
challenging are examined.
Look into the origin of abnormal pressure and
focus on the narrow pressure margins between
pore pressure and formation strength and its
profound impact on kick tolerance in the region of
the transition zone.
Gas, Temperature and Compression Laws are
discussed as is gas migration.
A review of HPHT well control events focuses
attention on the key differences between HPHT
and conventional wells.
Unique challenges including high pressure low
permeability formations are addressed.
WELL BARRIERS IN HPHT WELLS
Review of the principals of casing design with a
focus on the effects of temperature on casing
design criteria, such as load and yield strength
changes.
The importance of casing wear and its impact on
casing design and well integrity are discussed.
Kick tolerance principals are reviewed along with
methods to risk uncertainty.
RIG AND EQUIPMENT SELECTION
Detailed review of the essential requirements of
the rig and drilling equipment is provided which
covers the rig, fluids control equipment and well
control equipment, and instrumentation.
Particular attention will be given to qualification
and testing of BOP equipment and the sizing and
performance assessment of surface gas handling
equipment.
MANAGED PRESSURE DRILLING (MPD)
MPD offers solutions to a number of the
challenges of HPHT well delivery, specifically the
narrow margin between pore and fracture
pressure through the transition zone.
Some Operators require all “dry BOP” HPHT wells
to be drilled with MDP in place while recent riser
developments are seeing subsea and deepwater
HPHT wells using MPD equipment too.
This section addresses the benefits of MPD
operations and examines the equipment and
practises for its implementation in HPHT wells.
HPHT DRILLING PRACTISES
High reliability well delivery requires the
implementation of drilling practises that can
mitigate problems associated with high mud
gradients / mud rheology, narrow margin
environments and thermal effects.
Practises that address pressure limitations of
conventional mud circulation systems such that
the well can be safely closed in with high surface
pressures at any time. This section addresses
HPHT processes and practises including the
development steps of well specific HPHT drilling
procedures.
A process assurance mechanism - the “Safe
Drilling Checklist” – is introduced. Trip
management including tripping with core barrels
is discussed as is the management of pump off
events.
FINGERPRINTING
The impact of temperature in fluid density and
volume downhole means that conventional well
control signals are less reliable in HPHT
operations.
It is critical to understand the normal behaviour
of a well such that abnormal behaviour can be
rapidly identified and reacted to. Proactive
information gathering or “fingerprinting” prior to
and while drilling an HPHT section achieves this.
The array of data to be analysed and modern
mud logging techniques that can be used are
addressed.

PRIMARY WELL CONTROL
The prevention of kicks by maintaining adequate
BHP to overbalance permeable formations is a
fundamental goal when drilling any well. It is
complicated in HPHT wells due to the effect of
temperature changes on drilling fluid throughout
the wellbore.
The narrow margins between drilling fluid
gradient and formation strength in HPHT wells
also makes control of excessive wellbore
pressures equally critical.
The effect of temperature and pressure on drilling
fluid density, the importance of ECD
management, and use of PWD is explained.
The importance of operational procedures to
minimise surge and swab effects is emphasised.
Kick tolerance and gas behaviour is discussed in
terms of the effects of temperature and the
importance of monitoring gas while drilling is
explained.
Ballooning, breathing and supercharging will be
explained along with techniques to differentiate
between these effects and loss of primary well
control.
SECONDARY WELL CONTROL
Comprehensive knowledge and sound skills in the
principals and practises of well control are critical
to HPHT operations.
This section looks at common causes of kicks, kick
detection challenges including gas solubility in oil
based muds and early kick detection technology.
The reliability of surface pressure readings and
challenges of interpreting downhole conditions
from them are highlighted.
Well control procedures to combat influxes taken
with the drillstring on bottom, off bottom and
with the drillstring out of the hole are reviewed.
These will include driller’s method, volumetric
method, bullheading, combined volumetric and
stripping method and snubbing.
The challenges of hydrate formation and its
mitigation is also addressed.
TERTIARY WELL CONTROL
Conventional well control techniques require the
wellbore pressures to remain below the formation
breakdown pressure in the open hole. Where this
is exceeded, less conventional steps need to be
taken to recover primary well control.
Given the narrow margin between formation
pressure and fracture pressure in HPHT wells, the
situation may arise where there are simultaneous
influx and losses leading to underground flows.
The causes and treatments for underground
blowouts are described and explained.
TEAMWORK AND TRAINING
Competence, teamwork and communications
between well delivery team members is critical
to ensure the safe drilling of HPHT wells.
Clear definitions of roles and responsibilities are
needed as is a good understanding of how all
team members contribute to the delivery of the
well.
This section examines these roles and explores
how rig team communication and performance
on critical wells can be enhanced by processes
such as “Drilling the Well on a Simulator”.
Scenario Based Training - The course can be delivered as an
in-house course for rig teams preparing for a critical well.
Such in-house courses typically include the well modelled on a
Drilling Systems Drilling Simulator with a number of scenarios
modelled during the course. Such sessions facilitate the
evaluation of command and control capabilities and the
development of Crew Resource Management skills.
