Artificial-Lift Training
Current Course Schedule:
Objective:
Weatherford's 3 ½-day course is designed to give attendees a thorough introduction to the theory behind all forms of artificial lift. The advantages and limitations of each system, application considerations, and sample performance predictions will be discussed for each lift method. The course introduces the concepts used by our engineers in evaluating the best form of lift in individual cases. The student should leave the course with a solid foundation in all forms of lift and the concepts of the selection process to maximize production and return on investment.
This course runs Tuesday morning through Friday at noon.
Note: This course is conducted in English; therefore, a sound technical understanding of the language is required.
Who Should Attend
Production and field operations engineers, junior and senior petroleum engineers and field technicians; also geoscientists and reservoir engineers who wish to understand the implications of production systems on their field reservoirs. Significant benefits are realized by majors, independents, and international state companies alike. This course helps ensure a broad view of artificial lift, particularly when in-house expertise is limited to one- or two-lift systems.
