PETROENG 7070 - Integrated Field Development Planning and Economics Project

North Terrace Campus - Semester 2 - 2019

This project-based course covers the process and methods to create an optimal plan to develop a petroleum deposit. It starts with an overview of decision-making (to create value) and project economics (to assess value). Topics to be addressed include: decision-making process; decision-tree analysis; quantifying uncertainty/risk; Monte Carlo Simulation; petroleum project cash-flows and fiscal regimes; time-value-of-money and economic metrics. (The principles will be useful in your personal life.) Key project drivers are discussed and it is shown how multiple disciplines must interact to maximise the value of a project. It covers all aspects of field development planning - commencing with screening studies, after discovering hydrocarbons, through to project sanction. The development phase is highlighted as having the potential to add maximum value. It is shown how a good balance is needed among key elements: reservoirs, wells and facilities, to minimize costs whilst maximising recovery. The team-based project is based on a real offshore case. The first part is to develop a recommendation for the optimum field appraisal plan. The second part of involves the feasibility and derivation of the optimum development plan. Participants work in small teams and will submit written plans and give presentations in front of a panel.

  • Learning Outcomes
    Course Learning Outcomes
    On successful completion of this course students will be able to:

     
    1 Understand the broader oil & gas industry context within which business decisions are made, including societal and ethical factors that impact organizational (public, private and national) business goals
    2 Know (recall, define, describe) and comprehend (explain) the main concepts, terminology, tools/techniques and processes that are typically used in the O&G industry for economic evaluation and decision making
    3 Apply the key ideas underlying the modelling tools and techniques (eg Net Cash Flows, Discounted Cash Flows, Decision Tree Analysis and Monte Carlo Simulation), by performing calculations (including in Excel) and interpreting their output
    4 Calculate and interpret metrics that measure the economic value of a DCF and be able to use them in a decision-making process to make investment recommendations, both stand-alone and portfolio
    5 Comprehend and construct workflows as applied to major studies in petroleum engineering or petroleum geosciences.
    6 Take on responsibility for a role (technical or project management) in a diverse, multidisciplinary team requiring a high degree of interection and communication and the ability to integrate their component in the team's broader proposal
    7 Search for, evaluate, analyse and synthesize/integrate multiple, real, industry data sets, representing multiple information types and sources.
    8 Decide on how to appropriately deal with safety, health and environmental issues
    9 Carry out extensive literature searches, including the use of the internet, in order to broaden their knowledge and to awaken their curiosity. Innovation and creativity are stressed in finding workable solutions, applying contemporary technology
    10 Write a report delailing the elements of their proposed field development plan and an economic analysis of that plan - and make an oral presentation of it to a panel of academic and industry experts acting as "management"

     
    The above course learning outcomes are aligned with the Engineers 最新糖心Vlog .
    The course is designed to develop the following Elements of Competency:

  • Assessment

    The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:

    1. Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
    2. Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
    3. Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
    4. Assessment must maintain academic standards.

  • Student Feedback

    The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

    SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • Fraud Awareness

    Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
