This six-day course is designed to provide your valuable attendees with a comprehensive knowledge of Scale Control and Management in the oilfield. The course will address the recommended practices according to field experience of oilfield Chemists and Petroleum Engineers through E&P companies. All aspects of scale prediction, prevention, and removal will be addressed and discussed.
The course will discuss flow assurance issues and their harming effects on the production systems. New chemicals and technologies will be provided into the course to copy with the industry trends.
This course provides a structured understanding of scale formation mechanisms, prediction, and control in oil and gas production systems. Participants learn the chemistry and thermodynamics of common oilfield scales, scale risk assessment and modeling, monitoring and sampling techniques, and the selection and application of chemical and mechanical mitigation methods. The program emphasizes field-relevant practices for inhibitor selection and deployment, treatment design, performance monitoring, and failure analysis, enabling participants to proactively manage scale-related risks and maintain flow assurance and asset integrity.
The drilling fluid in the well is very similar to the blood in your body, you should test your blood and read your body messages for you and act accordingly to keep yourself healthy. Drilling fluid also send you messages about your well, you should understand your drilling fluid, know its functions, test its properties, and read your well messages to keep your well stable, safe, and efficiently perform your drilling process.
