| Year 3 | Program Title: Waterflood Management | ||||
| Program Level: Skill | |||||
| This course will cover waterflooding and the distribution of immiscible fluids in a reservoir. During this course, participants will also learn about the process of immiscible displacement in a reservoir along with the waterflood pattern options and its effects on the selection and orientation of flood performance. Other concepts that will be covered include the prediction of waterflood performance by the application of classical waterflood predictions. Analytical techniques and linear fractional flow theory will be discussed. Participants will also be able to see a simulation of waterflooding.
