Study Notes
Upstream Production Stage
- Focus of a Production Engineer: overseeing the entire production process, from reservoir to wellbore, to maximize hydrocarbon recovery.
Downstream Production Stage
- Component: refinery, responsible for processing and transforming crude oil and natural gas into various products.
Production System
- Primary function of tubing: to transport produced fluids from the bottom of the well to the surface.
Upstream Production
- Primary purpose of lift performance and artificial lifting methods: to enhance the flow of hydrocarbons from the wellbore to the surface by increasing the pressure and flow rate.
Midstream Production
- Surface production facilities: involve processing, treating, and transporting produced fluids, including separation, stabilization, and storage, to prepare them for transportation to refineries or other markets.
