This Oil & Gas Surface Gathering Systems training course develops the technical understanding required to evaluate, design and operate the surface networks that transport produced fluids from the wellhead to processing facilities. Gathering systems connect multiple wells through flowlines, manifolds, headers and gathering stations. Their configuration and hydraulic performance can directly affect well deliverability, production stability, facility utilisation and overall field performance.
The training course examines gathering-system architecture, network hydraulics, multiphase production behaviour and system integration before progressing to operational surveillance, reliability and capacity management. Participants will evaluate pressure losses, backpressure, shared infrastructure and network constraints while considering practical design and operating requirements. The training course also addresses brownfield tie-ins, changing production profiles and debottlenecking, enabling participants to assess how gathering networks should adapt as fields develop and production conditions evolve.

The training course develops the technical understanding required to evaluate how produced fluids move from individual wells through gathering infrastructure to processing facilities. Participants learn to assess network configuration, hydraulic behaviour, operating performance, capacity constraints, and integration requirements.
Participants examine production flowlines, manifolds, headers, gathering stations, testing and metering interfaces, and connections to processing facilities. The training course also considers how these components interact within individual, clustered, and common-line gathering arrangements.
Excessive backpressure within flowlines, headers, or downstream facilities can reduce well deliverability and restrict field production. The training course helps participants understand where pressure losses occur and how shared infrastructure can create constraints across multiple producing wells.
Multiphase production behaviour is addressed as an important factor influencing pressure, temperature, capacity, and network performance. Participants examine how changing oil, gas, and water rates affect gathering-system behaviour and operating decisions.
Participants examine network layout, available capacity, routing, manifold configuration, and processing interfaces when integrating new wells. The objective is to determine whether existing infrastructure can accommodate additional production without creating unacceptable constraints elsewhere in the system.
The Oil & Gas Surface Gathering Systems training course examines pressure, temperature, flow, alarms, and other performance indicators used to monitor network behaviour. Participants learn to recognise abnormal trends and distinguish potential capacity, operational, and integrity concerns.
Participants assess existing network constraints, changing production profiles, water cut, fluid rates, and available infrastructure capacity. These factors are used to evaluate tie-ins, network expansion, and debottlenecking decisions as field conditions evolve.
