JNTUK B.Tech Petroleum Production Engineering gives you detail information of Petroleum Production Engineering R13 syllabus It will be help full to understand you complete curriculum of the year.
Learning Objectives: The students are expected to get knowledge of
- Fundamental concepts in petroleum production engineering.
- Reservoir fluids, efficient flow to the surface without damaging the reservoir dynamics/drive mechanisms.
- Various surface equipments for process oil and gas after flow from wells.
- Sick well identification and remedial stimulation operations.
- Application of suitable artificial lifts on reservoir energy depletion.
- Crisis management.
UNIT-I: Petroleum production system- Properties of Oil & Natural gas
UNIT-II: Reservoir deliverability- Well bore performance –Choke performance.
UNIT-III: Separation-Design and selection of equipment of well fluids
UNIT-IV: Artificial lift methods: Sucker rod pumping- Gas lift & other lift systems
UNIT-V: Production stimulation: Well problem identification- Matrix acidizing- Hydraulic fracturing
UNIT-VI: Safety & crisis management during Drilling/Production
Outcomes: After the course, the students will be able to
- Determine the well head pressure, down hole pressure and operating oil/ gas flow rates of the reservoir
- Identify formation damage and find remedial methods to bring the well back into production.
- Screen, design and operate artificial lifts on reservoir pressure depletions.
- Handle in case of any crisis at drilling/production installations.
- Process oil and gas before supply to refinery/consumers.
- Contribute to reservoir management as production engineers to prolong the reservoir life with optimum production.
