Working together for a safer world Aims This course is intended for industry professionals who wish to develop or expand their knowledge of formation damage and how optimum productivity and injectivity can be assured. This independent course provides participants with a unique insight into formation damage through the practical integration of regional, core, well and drilling data. Theory and principles are reinforced by the extensive use of real field examples from throughout the world. The course aims to demystify the subject of formation damage and promote a formation damage awareness culture, encouraging participants to challenge convention and think about the implications of damage throughout a field or well life cycle ¨C from drilling to abandonment. Benefits You will learn: ? How to identify the geological controls on formation damage ? How to evaluate well history to identify potential formation damage ? How to design laboratory tests to measure and identify damage and stimulation ? What the principal damage mechanisms are and how they can be avoided, minimised and removed ? What different types of damage occur during drilling, completion, workover, stimulation and injection ? What additional issues need to be considered when downhole sand control is employed ? How to scale up from laboratory to well and reservoir scale Who should attend? Drillers, production engineers, completion engineers, production chemists, geoscientists, reservoir engineers and petrophysicists who wish to develop or expand their knowledge of formation damage and its impact on well productivity and injectivity. Duration ¨C 2 days Course instructors Michael Byrne has 25+ years¡¯ industry experience chiefly working in the field of formation damage evaluation. He has written many key technical papers on the subject, is an active participant in relevant Society of Petroleum Engineers events and publications, and is a SPE Distinguished Lecturer. Michael joined LR in 2007, where he is Global Technical Head, Formation Damage. He has written several training courses and presented courses around the world for more than 15 years. He offers a unique insight in to formation damage and its avoidance and remediation. Formation damage: risks and remedies Training
