Certificate in Basin Analysis
This course will introduce students to the basic principles used in the study of Basin Analysis and Petroleum System. This will include a focus on the processes that influence the formation of sedimentary basins and their Importance in Hydrocarbon Exploration, as well as focusing on the Types of Basins related to Plate Margin. Special emphasis […]
-
Certificate in Oil and Gas Well Testing
In the Oil and Gas industry, a well test is the execution of a set of planned data acquisition activities to broaden the knowledge and understanding of hydrocarbons properties and characteristics of the underground reservoir where hydrocarbons are trapped. The test will also provide information about the state of the particular well used to collect […]
-
Certificate in Petroleum Drilling and Production Engineering
This course focuses on the overriding goal of oil and gas production engineering: to extract the maximum amount of hydrocarbons at minimum cost. This is achieved by designing and overseeing the most efficient day to day oil and gas production operations from the reservoir, up the well and through the processing and storage operations at […]

Certificate in Petroleum Geology
This course will introduce students to the basic principles used in the study of Petroleum Geology and Petroleum generation. This will include a focus on the processes that influence the formation of Petroleum and their Importance in Hydrocarbon accumulation, as well as focusing on the Types of organic matter deposition and maturation. Special emphasis will […]
-
Certificate in Photo geology and Remote Sensing
This course provides an introduction to Photogeology and Remote Sensing techniques including Geographical information system. This course will introduce students to concepts and geological applications in remote sensing with an emphasis on aerial photography. The course is divided into three parts, dealing with photogeology, remote sensing and GIS respectively. The first few lectures will be […]
-
Certificate in Reservoir Geology
This course is designed to develop skills in understanding the geometry and petrophysical characteristics of clastic and carbonate reservoirs. Depositional fabric, grain type and size and subsequent diagenetic modifications are the major controls on carbonate reservoir behaviour. The complex inter-relationship of the depositional and burial history can be unravelled to allow prediction of reservoir facies […]
-
Certificate in Structural Geology
The primary objective is to explain structural geology concepts and tools that aid in developing an internally consistent 3-D picture of the crustal structure, and evaluating specific reservoir characteristics such as top seal integrity and fault seal. Together, the instructors and students will develop a structural analysis “best practices” workflow.
-
Certificate in Well Stimulation and Sand Control
The course includes acidizing and fracturing quality control conducting the treatment, monitoring pressures and other critical parameters during and after the treatment. An important part of the course is class teamwork where by the attendees divide into teams to evaluate and design stimulation treatments. These exercises bring out many important parameters.
