SPE Applied Technology Workshop: High Pressure/High Temperature

 

SPE APPLIED TECHNOLOGY WORKSHOP "High Pressure/High Temperature" 9 - 12 June 2013  |  Eastern & Oriental Hotel, Penang, Malaysia   REGISTER NOW Since the early days of drilling HPHT wells, the oil and gas industry has now evolved to a stage where exploration and appraisal wells are drilled by most operators. Although HPHT wells still pose a significant challenge to our industry, exploration and appraisal drilling has been facilitated by the maturation and subsequent application of technologies increasing their chance of success. The next step is to establish routine HPHT development well which at the current time are very limited in count. With the opportunity of in-depth discussions and sharing of proven as well as evolving technologies, this workshop aims to furnish the participants with knowledge and tools to enhance their ability to successfully plan, engineer and execute the drilling and completion of their HPHT wells. This workshop focuses on how technologies have come together and jointly contributed to improved safety and efficiency in drilling, evaluation and completions of these challenging wells. The next step, safe long term development and management of HPHT reservoirs and wells, requires further understanding of flow assurance and geomechanics. The workshop will promote robust HPHT well construction and operations through: Emphasis on systematic planning and development of technical competencies as well as organisational capability Addressing risk and uncertainties in a proactive manner Sharing current practices to deal with major HSE concerns (well control, well integrity) Managing HPHT interfaces with reservoir, petroleum, completion, drilling and facilities engineers How to manage HPHT wells once on production, what is different to exploration and appraisal? Examining full life cycle well design and operation considerations Understanding the role of geomechanics in life of well integrity Presenting case histories of drilling, completing and producing HPHT wells Raising awareness of current technology limits as well as needs for ultra-HPHT wells TRAINING COURSE Introduction to HPHT Completions 8 June 2013 By Miguel Rosato REGISTER NOW In conjunction with the Workshop, a one-day training course will be held on 8th June 2013 from 0900-1700 hours at the Eastern & Oriental Hotel, Penang, Malaysia. This one-day course introduces the unique aspects and issues surrounding HPHT Completions.

SPE Applied Technology Workshop: Marginal Field Development

 

SPE APPLIED TECHNOLOGY WORKSHOP "Marginal Field Development" 16-19 June 2013 | The Westin Resort & Spa, Langkawi, Malaysia   REGISTER NOW Different national oil companies (NOCs) and international oil companies (IOCs) often have their own definition of the term "marginal field", however, the generally accepted meaning refers to "an oil field that may not produce enough net income to make it worth developing at a given time. However, should technical or economic conditions change, such a field may become commercial field." There are a number of parameters that can affect commercial viability including environmental concerns, need for good reservoir understanding/management, project risks and risk management, schedule to first gas/liquids, surrounding infrastructure, a sound contracting strategy, fiscal terms, political stability, and the price/price stability of the produced gas/liquids. This Applied Technology Workshop will promote a thorough understanding of the complexities in developing marginal fields through focusing on technological requirements and commercial viability through in-depth discussions on the following subject matters: Characteristics of Marginal Fields and Estimation of the Hydrocarbon Resource Assessment Uncertainty in Reservoir and Production Management The 'Balancing Act' with Risk Management Associated to the Marginal Field Development Diversion from Conventional Project Development Phases Innovative Development Solutions Current and Emerging Technologies Cost Effective Development Solutions Fit for Purpose Production Facilities Effective Contracting Strategies Including Fiscal Terms Case Histories Highlighting the Good and the Bad Who Should Attend?       The workshop is designed for practicing professionals who work directly or indirectly in any of the following areas: Asset Management Commercial & Economics Management Facilities & Production Engineering Geoscience & Geophysics Petrophysics Reservoir Engineering Drilling & Well Completion Engineering Project Management Business Development TRAINING COURSE The Art of Green Field Development: The Challenge of Uncertainties and Risks 16 June 2013  |  0900-1700 hours Instructors: Dr. Abdolrahim Ataei, PETRONAS and Dr. Keng Seng Chan, PETRONAS   REGISTER NOW Green fields today mostly can be regarded as marginal fields and are successfully developed.

SPE Forum Series - 70% Recovery: Applications from Nano to Macro - Application Deadline Extended

 

70% Recovery: Applications from Nano to Macro 19 - 24 May 2013 Le Méridien Angkor, Siem Reap, Cambodia As oil recovery processes involve the interplay of rock/fluids and thermodynamic interactions, the optimisation of hydrocarbon recovery requires a clear understanding of both static and dynamic reservoir properties at different scales, ranging from pore to meso-scale. This Forum focuses on exploring upcoming technologies that will help improve the overall hydrocarbon recovery, i.e. from technologies which are relatively embryonic to those widely applied in the field today. They could be technologies leading to enhanced reservoir imaging and a step change in rocks and fluid characterisation, technologies leading to more efficient microscopic recovery, technologies leading to more compact, cheaper and more durable offshore facilities and equipment, technologies leading to the drilling and completion of cheaper, better and more productive wells, and/or technologies resulting in a step change in our ability to monitor and control reservoirs conformance and performance on a real-time basis. Topics of the Forum would include: ·         Do we understand sufficiently the reservoir and the displacement processes? ·         What are the missing factors in optimising secondary recovery, and specially water injection? ·         Will polymer, surfactant flooding ever be economical? ·         How can we address the unique challenges associated with carbonates? ·         What role(s) will nanotechnologies and biotechnologies play? ·         What reservoir monitoring do we need? ·         Do complex completions return maximum recovery? SPE Forums bring together the industry's brightest minds to shape the future of technology development. Forums offer an exclusive opportunity to discuss complex industry challenges with top technologists, innovators, and managers. Attendees will be selected based on their ability to contribute ideas and insights from academic and work experience as judged by consensus of the Steering Committee. We invite you to fully explore the topics of this Forum and apply online. The deadline to apply has been extended to 10 April 2013. Do not miss the chance again, apply online now!   Application Deadline: 10 April 2013 To Whom the Forum Will Appeal:     This Forum will appeal to multidisciplinary teams and technical experts within operating companies, service companies and academic institutions who are involved in the aspects of field planning, reservoir geosciences as well as reservoir and production engineering, facilities engineers, project engineers and researchers.    Connect with us:   For more information, please visit the SPE website at www.spe.org/events/13fsap or contact Ms. Suba Jaganathan, SPE Event Coordinator, SPE Asia Pacific office (Kuala Lumpur) at Tel: +60.3.2182.3000; Fax: +60.3.2182.3030; Email: spekl@spe.org SPE members receive periodic emails on meetings related to their discipline or because they have opted to receive information on specific meetings or programs.
