Integrated Field Development Planning

This course provides a holistic, cross-functional training on integrated field development planning. Learn to collaborate across disciplines and apply strategic and technical principles for the effective development of oil and gas fields.

Description

Integrated Field Development Planning (IFDP) is essential for maximizing the value of oil and gas assets. This course is designed to help upstream professionals with a comprehensive understanding of field development stages, from reservoir characterization to economic analysis and decision-making.

Participants will explore the critical interplay between geoscience, engineering, and business disciplines, and will learn how to apply industry best practices to create robust, economically viable field development plans. Real-world field examples, exercises, and group discussions will reinforce the learning outcomes.
