Build Working Knowledge of Reservoir Engineering
We teach engineers how oil and gas reservoirs actually behave under production conditions. You'll work through real field scenarios, calculate recovery factors, and learn when the textbook equations break down. This isn't theory for its own sake—it's the technical foundation you need to make defensible decisions about reservoir development and management.
View Learning ProgramWhy Engineers Choose This Program
Our participants come from exploration, production, and consulting backgrounds. They need practical reservoir analysis skills that work in the field, not just in simulation software.
Field-Tested Methods
We focus on techniques that petroleum engineers actually use when evaluating reservoirs. You'll learn decline curve analysis, material balance calculations, and pressure transient interpretation through datasets from producing fields. These are the methods that inform investment decisions and development strategies.
Problem-Solving Practice
Each module includes exercises based on real reservoir challenges—unconventional plays with uncertain drainage areas, waterflooded fields with changing fluid properties, gas condensate systems near dewpoint. You'll work through the calculations and see where approximations are valid and where they're not.
Technical Depth
We don't skip the mathematics or the physics. You'll understand why Darcy's law applies in certain conditions, how relative permeability curves affect displacement efficiency, and what assumptions go into reserve estimates. The goal is technical competence, not surface familiarity.

Try the Platform First
We offer a two-week trial period so you can evaluate whether our approach matches your learning needs. You'll get access to introductory modules on reservoir fluid properties and basic well testing. This gives you enough material to judge the technical level and see if the format works for you before committing to the full program.
Full Platform Access
Work through initial modules with complete functionality including exercise submissions and feedback.
Direct Support
Ask technical questions through the platform messaging system during your trial period.
Terms and Refund Conditions
We want participants who are genuinely interested in learning reservoir engineering. If the program doesn't meet your needs, here's how we handle refunds and course adjustments.
30-Day Refund Window
Request a full refund within the first 30 days if you've completed less than 25% of the core material. No complicated process—just email us with your reason and we process it within five business days.
Course Pause Option
Life happens. If you need to stop for professional or personal reasons, you can pause your enrollment for up to six months. Your progress saves and you resume exactly where you left off.
Content Updates Included
When we revise modules or add new case studies, enrolled students get access at no additional cost. You're not locked into outdated material if industry practices evolve.
Continue Developing Your Expertise
After completing the core program, engineers often want to specialize in particular reservoir types or analysis methods. We offer advanced modules that build on the foundation.
Tight Oil and Shale Gas Systems
These reservoirs don't follow conventional decline patterns. You'll learn rate transient analysis specific to hydraulically fractured wells, how to estimate stimulated reservoir volume, and methods for forecasting production in ultra-low permeability formations. The module covers both liquid-rich and dry gas plays.
- Multi-stage fracture performance evaluation
- Pressure-dependent permeability effects
- Production type curves for unconventional plays
- Parent-child well interference analysis
Waterflooding and Gas Injection
Learn to evaluate enhanced recovery projects from a reservoir engineering perspective. You'll calculate sweep efficiency, predict breakthrough timing, and analyze injection well performance. The focus is on conventional EOR methods that have decades of field data behind them.
- Fractional flow analysis and Buckley-Leverett displacement
- Pattern flood performance prediction
- Vertical and areal sweep efficiency calculations
- Gas injection project economics and risks
Enhanced recovery techniques require understanding displacement physics and fluid behavior under injection conditions.
Reserve Valuation and Decision Analysis
Bridge the gap between technical reservoir analysis and financial evaluation. You'll learn probabilistic reserve estimation, how to incorporate technical uncertainty into economic models, and methods for comparing development alternatives. This module is designed for engineers who need to communicate with management and investors.
- Monte Carlo simulation of reservoir performance
- Decision tree analysis for phased development
- Risk-adjusted NPV calculations
- Sensitivity analysis of technical parameters
Economic analysis translates technical forecasts into investment decisions under uncertainty.
