By the end of this course, delegates will be able to:

• Discuss main concepts of reservoir management from geology to hydrocarbon recovery and export point
• Include each reservoir management component within the workflow and discuss the importance of timing and cost/benefit analysis
• List techniques and best practices related to the development of oil & gas fields including economic aspects
• Describe petroleum resources management system (PRMS), reserves and resources definition and classifications
• Describe main monitoring techniques in order to apply IOR and EOR methods during reservoir life
• Discuss integrating risks and uncertainties into reserves evaluation: static uncertainties, dynamic uncertainties, geostochastic modelling, etc.
• Use the interdisciplinary synergistic approach leading to efficient reservoir management
