Gas/Gas Condensate Reservoir Engineering

Instructors: William D. McCain, Jr., Ph.D.
Course Length: 4 Days
Course CEUs: 3.2

Course Description
This is a basic course in gas reservoir engineering covering the properties of dry gases, wet gases and gas condensates and the methods of estimating gas-in-place and reserves for these gases. The producing characteristics of each of the three types of reservoir gas, along with methods for using field data to determine the type of gas that exists in a particular reservoir, are described first. Then the basic gas engineering calculations are illustrated along with modifications necessary for application to each type gas. Finally, the use of gas condensate laboratory data to predict gas and condensate recovery is discussed. In-class exercises are used to show the application of all these procedures.

Who should attend
Engineers and geoscientists who need a broad understanding of the full spectrum of reservoir gases from dry gases to rich gas condensates, including properties, production characteristics and engineering calculations.
