COURSE OVERVIEW:

Oil Field Manager (OFM) is a powerful tool used for day-to-day surveillance and strategic production forecasting. This course provides participants with the skills to manage, analyze, and forecast production using the OFM environment. Attendees will learn how to integrate diverse data sources including production history, well events, and reservoir properties, to gain insights into field performance.

The curriculum focuses on Decline Curve Analysis (DCA), waterflood diagnostics, and the identification of underperforming wells. Participants will learn how to build professional plots (e.g., P/Z, Hall, Chan, and Bubble maps) that visualize reservoir trends and connectivity. The course emphasizes the use of OFM for identifying "behind-pipe" potential and ranking workover and infill drilling candidates.

By the end of the training, engineers will be able to perform robust production forecasts, evaluate field development scenarios, and create standardized reports that support asset management decisions. The course combines technical theory with intensive software-based exercises to ensure practical proficiency.

COURSE OBJECTIVES:

After completion of this course, the participants will be able to:

• Navigate the OFM interface and manage project databases.
• Perform advanced Decline Curve Analysis (DCA) for various well types.
• Identify underperforming wells and reservoir compartments.
• Utilize Bubble Maps and Grid Maps to visualize field performance.
• Analyze waterflood efficiency using Hall and Chan plots.
• Forecast future production under different operating scenarios.
• Identify infill drilling and workover candidates using OFM diagnostics.
• Perform P/Z analysis for gas reservoir reserves estimation.
• Integrate wellbore diagrams and completion data into surveillance.
• Calculate remaining reserves and recovery factors at the well and field level.
• Create custom calculated variables and reporting templates.
• Use OFM to track well events and their impact on production.
• Present data-driven development recommendations to stakeholders.

TARGET AUDIENCE:

Reservoir Engineers, Production Engineers, and Asset Geologists.

TRAINING COURSE METHODOLOGY:

A highly interactive combination of lectures, discussion sessions, and case studies will be employed to maximise the transfer of information, knowledge, and experience. The course will be intensive, practical, and highly interactive. The sessions will start by raising the most relevant questions and motivating everybody to find the right answers. The attendants will also be encouraged to raise more of their questions and to share in developing the right answers using their analysis and experience. There will also be some indoor experiential activities to enhance the learning experience. Course material will be provided in PowerPoint, with necessary animations, learning videos, and general discussions.

The course participants shall be evaluated before, during, and at the end of the course.

COURSE CERTIFICATE:

National Consultant Centre for Training LLC (NCC) will issue an Attendance Certificate to all participants completing a minimum of 80% of the total attendance time requirement.
