This 2-day workshop is designed for experienced practitioners of Rate Transient Analysis who would like to update their skills and learn best practices for its application in interpreting well production data from stress-sensitive unconventional reservoirs with multiphase flow considerations. This is a hands-on workshop which will make use of the IHS Markit Harmony Enterprise™ software. For each topic that is covered, a practical field example is provided to illustrate the relevant methods, workflows and results. Workstations, software, course notes and lunch will be provided.
Note: This is an advanced workshop, designed for individuals with an existing knowledge of Harmony/RTA fundamentals. Basic theory and software training will not be covered. First time RTA users are recommended to attend one of the following IHS Markit course, here: https://ihsmarkit.com/products/harmony-enterprise-training.html#training
Wed June 5th to Thu June 6th
8:30am to 4:30pm
