Description

---

This seminar offers an introduction to evaluating downhole performance through the application of Production Logging Tools (PLT). Designed for petroleum professionals, the curriculum covers the fundamental physics, operational delivery, and interpretive elements essential for diagnosing well performance and optimizing reservoir management.
Key Subjects Covered
-Fundamentals of Conventional PLT: Understanding the core components of a PLT string, including correlation tools (GR/CCL), fluid identification sensors (pressure, temperature, density), and mechanical flowmeters.
-Production Log Benefits: Using PLT data to identify fluid phases, determine flow rates, and monitor zonal production or injection performance.
-Well Diagnostics and Troubleshooting: Detecting critical well issues such as cross-flow, completion hardware failures (e.g., leaking packers or corroded tubing), cement channeling, and gas or water coning.
-Conveyance Systems: A comparative study of transporting PLT strings via Wireline (WL), Slickline (SL), or Coiled Tubing (CT), including limitations based on well deviation.
-Tool Physics and Data Quality: Mastering concepts of accuracy, precision, and resolution, alongside the critical processes of tool calibration, normalization, and verification.
-Operational Workflows: Understanding the "PLT Pass" methodology, including the industry-standard multi-pass interpretation method for robust data analysis and PBU/PFO recording.
-Horizontal Well Challenges: Analyzing complex flow regimes, the "heel" and "toe" of horizontal sections, and phenomena like Apparent Down Flow (ADF) and recirculation.
-Advanced Multi-Array Technology: Introduction to sophisticated array tools like MAPS, FSI, and PAI designed for highly deviated and horizontal environments.
