Event Overview
This fifth edition of our workshop on Well Injectivity and Productivity in Carbonates (WIPIC) is a follow-up to the very successful workshop held in March 2022 in Doha, Qatar. This year’s theme is Innovative Technology for Reservoir Optimization. Building on the feedback and success from previous events, the workshop scope continues to cover the entire reservoir, not just the wells.
For optimal field development, injectivity and productivity of wells are essential, especially in heterogeneous reservoirs such as carbonates. However, incorporating other elements—such as geological modelling, reservoir simulation, reservoir management, history matching, uncertainty assessment, and enhanced recovery mechanisms—is crucial as we move towards a multidisciplinary approach to problem-solving.
This year, we are excited to introduce new topics : digitalization, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. These cutting-edge technologies promise to revolutionize our approach to reservoir management by enhancing data analytics, predictive modelling, and decision-making processes.
With representatives from national oil companies, international oil companies, service providers, universities, and research institutes, this workshop is designed to appeal to subsurface specialists in well stimulation and completion, log analysis, petrophysics, pressure transient analysis, reservoir geology and geophysics, applied mathematics, data science, geo-statistics, and reservoir engineering. It will also be valuable for subsurface generalists and reservoir managers.
