Subsurface Evaluator: Reservoir Surveillance & Monitoring Strategies

Introduction:

Reservoir surveillance and monitoring are among the most critical activities in reservoir engineering, as they directly contribute to enhancing field productivity and extending reservoir life. Surveillance operations aim to collect and analyze dynamic reservoir data to understand fluid behavior, evaluate production efficiency, and forecast future performance.

This program is designed to provide participants with the knowledge and practical tools to design and implement effective reservoir monitoring strategies using modern data analysis techniques and the integration of geological, geophysical, and engineering information for optimal reservoir management.
