General area of expertise
Surface Well Testing (SWT) is the core area of expertise of SWT Process Engineer.
SWT gather techniques to assess the true reservoir potential at full scale under dynamic conditions. It validates the well performance during cleanup and commissioning and provides reservoir monitoring for better field management. Basically, the effluent received from well head (mixture of oil, gas and water at high pressure) is treated through SWT assets in order to obtain an accurate estimate of the flowrates and compositions of gas, oil and water under dynamic conditions of the reservoir (reservoir put in production during a short period of time). Most often, the three phases are separated, measured (flowrates through on\-line measurements, composition through sampling) and disposed in accordance with environmental regulations.
SWT Process Engineer also intervenes in the definition of Extended Well Test (EWT) facilities. EWT share same objectives as SWT (basically testing of the well), with following differences:
Furthermore, SWT Process engineer can intervene in the definition of Early Production Facilities (EPF) or Production facilities (PF), where the objective is to produce the well and in particular treat the oil and/or the gas for export. Typically, commercial specification needs to be reached in terms of composition and physical properties.
Role and responsibilities
In all the areas of expertise listed above, the range of responsibilities of SWT Process engineer are:
+ to separate the well effluent phases
+ measure the flowrates and composition before disposal in accordance with environmental regulations
+ treat the oil and/or the gas to reach definite specifications for export or disposal
+ define their operating envelope
+ define solutions required for debottlenecking or upgrading
+ verify safety (pressure relief valves, relief lines, setting of alarms and switches)
+ alarms and switches thresholds in terms of liquid levels, pressures, temperatures, erosion probes, etc..
+ equipment pressure relief devices (pressures relief valves, ruptures disks, etc.…)
+ blowdown / depressurization systems
+ flares network (relief lines and headers) and flaring systems
+ Design of process systems for treating effluents before disposal
+ Heat radiation studies around flares
+ Gas dispersion studies in case of gas flaring and/or relief
The SWT Process Engineer is an effective support to all SLB locations all over the word, in order to provide solutions to meet production and safety requirements.
Interactions with other stakeholders
SWT Process Engineer will also endorse Project Engineer role with the responsibility to manage a complete project (Feasibility study, asset manufacturing, etc..).
+ Feasibility studies: design of new equipment/assets, elaboration of complete installation in SWT, EWT, EPF or PF
+ Design studies: technical verifications and assessments (safety, operating envelopes, upgrading or debottlenecking)
+ Project management (Process design studies, asset manufacturing)
+ Support SLB locations on various technical matters
+ Realization and revision of design standards
+ Definition of requirements and specification of pressure relief devices (pressure relief valves, rupture disks, HIPPS, etc..)
+ Design a relief network in accordance with recognized industrial practices.
+ Extensive knowledge of API standards (520, 521, 2000, etc..) is absolutely required.
+ Safety reviews (HAZOP, HAZID, LOPA, etc..)
+ Knowledge of Heat radiation studies (with Flaresim or equivalent) is an advantage
+ Knowledge in Gas dispersion studies is an advantage
+ Deep knowledge and practice of API standards, in particular API 520, 521, 537, 2000, 12J, 14C, 14E
+ Knowledge of pressure vessel and piping standards and codes (ASME VIII, B31\.3 and ISO equivalents)
+ Understanding of CE marking and its application within Oilfield Industry.,
+ Understanding ATEX certifications and its application within Oilfield Industry.
+ Knowledge of NACE
