FIELD DEVELOPMENT PROJECT - JURY
-
Duration : 10 Days
During this final project, participants will select field development scenario and architecture, design wells, evaluate well performances, design and simulate process, realize heat and mass balance and evaluate profitability of their project.
This 10-day teamwork project is a real case study based on actual data. Participants are coached throughout the project to produce the required deliverables, which are to be presented on the last day (jury):
Field architecture. Well design and completion. Process design and simulation. Main equipment sizing. Heat and mass balance. Fuel gas requirements. HAZID and plant layout.
