Training Overview

Training Overview

The Best Practices of Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) Projects Training Course equips professionals with the knowledge and skills to optimize oil recovery in mature reservoirs. With the increasing gap between oil field discoveries and global demand, understanding and applying EOR techniques has become essential for maximizing hydrocarbon production.

This course provides a comprehensive overview of chemical, miscible, and thermal EOR processes, including advanced methods such as microbial, enzyme, and low-salinity water injection. Participants will explore the design, screening criteria, and field applications of EOR methods, linking reservoir principles to real-world case studies. Interactive lectures, industry videos, and hands-on exercises ensure a practical learning experience that empowers professionals to implement effective EOR strategies.

Key focus areas of this course:

  • Understanding different EOR methods, including chemical, miscible gas, and thermal processes.
  • Reservoir characterization and screening of actual fields for appropriate EOR methods.
  • Application of water flooding techniques and fundamentals of frontal displacement theory.
  • Advanced reservoir modeling techniques to optimize recovery factors.
  • Evaluating new advancements in EOR technologies, including microbial, enzyme, and low-salinity water injection.
  • Applying key performance metrics such as mobility ratio and capillary number to enhance oil recovery.

This course provides both theoretical insights and practical knowledge, enabling participants to make informed decisions in planning and executing EOR projects.

What are the goals?

By the Best Practices of Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) Projects Training Course, participants will gain the expertise to design, implement, and optimize EOR techniques in mature oil fields.

By the end of this training course, participants will be able to: 

  • Describe and apply different EOR processes effectively in field operations.
  • Characterize reservoirs and screen candidate fields for suitable EOR methods.
  • Maximize oil recovery using fundamental principles like mobility ratio and capillary number.
  • Apply chemical EOR methods, including polymer, alkaline-polymer, and surfactant/polymer combinations.
  • Implement miscible gas techniques, including CO₂ and nitrogen injection, and determine minimum miscibility pressure (MMP).
  • Understand thermal processes, including cyclic and continuous steam injection, and evaluate emerging EOR technologies.

Participants will leave with actionable knowledge to improve recovery efficiency, optimize reservoir performance, and apply best practices in EOR projects.
