Training Course


Practical Well Test Analysis

 

Instructor(s): Prof. Jiaen Lin

Course Description:

We now arrange 3 days’ training courses with title “Practical Well Test Analysis”. This course will provide an understanding of the state-of-the-art of well testing, including the well test analysis techniques in the tight and ultra-tight reservoir development and for a well in a multi-well system without or with water injection. Learn the detailed process from well-testing model selection and design to data acquisition, validation, and interpretations for different types of reservoirs.

Laptops are required. Problems will be solved using the powerful well test analysis platform with all conventional reservoir models and unconventional reservoir models as well as multi-well models, which will be provided for being installed in your lap computer for Three months’ your free using if needed.

Biography of Jiaen Lin

Lin Jiaen, a professor at Xi'an Shiyou University. He holds PhD degree in Mechanics from Tsinghua University, an MS degree from Petroleum University, Beijing and a BS degree from Southwestern Petroleum Institute, both in petroleum engineering, He gotten English training for one year in Dept. of Foreign Language, Eastern China Normal University, Shanghai.. He worked as a visiting scholar at University of Houston, USA for one year during 2011-2012 and at Herio-Watt University, UK for half a year in 1998. He worked as petroleum engineer in Xinjiang Petroleum Administration Bureau from 1983-1996 and late worked with Xi'an Shiyou University.

Prof. Lin with more than 30 years of extensive experience with national oil producing companies and university, including reservoir description, reservoir engineering, well test analysis, reservoir information management, prediction of production performance, multi-phase fluid flow in porous media and numerical simulation. Over 30 papers published by Prof. Lin in academic journals and conferences. Prof. Lin also holds two patents and is the author of the book “Practical Well Test Analysis”, which was published by Petroleum Industry in 1996 Press. He taught  courses including "Reservoir Engineering", "Well Test Analysis" and "Oil Production Engineering". 

Prof. Lin is a Leader of more than 20 research projects related to well test data interpretation, reservoir engineering and reservoir evaluation from PetroChina, Sinopec and Cnooc in recent 10 years. He created a center for reservoir engineering at the Xian Shiyou University. The team has achieved two important results related to reservoir engineering software. One is Well Test Analysis Software and the other is Web-Based Reservoir Surveillance Information Application System, these softwares have be widely used by many oilfields in China.
