Oil and Gas Exploration and Production Technologies
Credits: 6 PDH
PDH Course Description:
Advances in oil and gas exploration and production technologies have resulted in numerous economic and environmental benefits. This course provides information in the form of fact sheets for 36 advanced technologies for oil and gas exploration, drilling
and completion, production, site restoration, and handling sensitive environments.
In this course, you need to review the material in the course content file, which is composed of technology fact sheets for the 36 advanced technologies described above. These fact sheets are part of the report, "Environmental Benefits of Advanced Oil
and Gas Exploration and Production Technology," put out by U.S. DOE in 2000. Once you complete your course review, you need to take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of thirty-five (35) questions to earn 6 PDH credits. The quiz will be based on the
material in the course content file.
Topics:
At the conclusion of this course, the student will:- Be familiar with four advanced technologies for oil and gas exploration and their economic and environmental benefits.
- Be familiar with sixteen advanced technologies for oil and gas drilling and completion, and their economic and environmental benefits.
- Be familiar with thirteen advanced technologies for oil and gas production, and their economic and environmental benefits.
- Be familiar with three advanced technologies for oil and gas drilling and production site restoration.
- Be familiar with four advanced technologies for oil and gas drilling and production in sensitive environments.
