2018-19 Reservoir Engineering Training Guide Reservoir Engineering Course Progression Matrix

The Course Progression Matrix below shows how the Reservoir Engineering courses in this section are structured within each topic, from Basic to Specialized. On either side of the Reservoir Engineering section, you will see courses in associated disciplines for cross-training. These matrices are ideal for building training plans for early-career staff or finding the right course to build upon existing knowledge and experience.

Basic Reservoir Engineering – BR leads off the section as a perfect basic overview for anyone working with reservoir definition, development, or production. The next course, Applied Reservoir Engineering – RE on page 2, represents the core of our reservoir engineering program and the foundation for all future studies in this subject.
