Why Choose this Training Course?

Oil and Gas production in the form of accurate measurement and back-allocating volumes to the wells, efficient production deferment tracking and enhanced integrated production planning process poses a challenge to proper management of an oilfield asset.

In the oilfield, it is a routine practice to carry out these activities (consciously or otherwise) without recognizing and adhering to best practice. Case study indicates that inaccurate measurements of crude oil & gas production represent about 10% revenue lose to an asset with attendant legal consequences or confidence impact in some instance.
