Perforation Methods and Applications
Course Description
This five-day course is designed to provide your valuable attendees with a comprehensive knowledge of Perforation Methods used in the oilfield. The course will address the recommended practices according to field experience of oilfield Petroleum Engineers through E&P companies. Different concepts will be discussed like perforation tunnel damage, gun standoff, underbalance, gun correlation on depth, and other engineering input requirements for each perforation job design
