Why Choose Us

The Production Engineering with OFM Database Course gives production engineers, reservoir engineers, and petroleum professionals a structured, hands-on understanding of Oil Field Manager (OFM) covering database structure, data import, production analysis, decline curve analysis, nodal analysis, reservoir surveillance, and advanced scenario planning within one of the most widely used production engineering platforms in the oil and gas industry.

OFM is a powerful and widely deployed production engineering tool but its value is only realised when engineers understand how to structure its database effectively, import and visualise data accurately, apply its analytical tools with confidence, and integrate its outputs into real reservoir management and production optimisation decisions. This course ensures delegates develop exactly that capability.

Moving progressively from OFM fundamentals and database navigation through data visualisation, production analysis, reservoir surveillance, and advanced functionalities, the Production Engineering with OFM Database Course builds a complete, practical OFM competence that delegates can apply directly from Day 1 back in their organisations.

This course is built for production and reservoir professionals who want to use OFM not just as a data management tool, but as an integrated production engineering platform that drives better operational and development decisions.

 

Why Choose Production Engineering with OFM Database

Learning Approach

How will this Training Course be Presented?

The Production Engineering with OFM Database Course is delivered through a hands-on, software-focused learning approach where OFM application is central to every day's content not just an add-on. The course is structured to progressively build practical OFM competence across database management, data visualisation, production analysis, reservoir surveillance, and advanced scenario planning.

Daily recaps and Q&A sessions ensure learning consolidates before delegates advance to the next module creating a structured, supportive progression from OFM fundamentals to advanced integration capability.

Delivery methods include:

  • Instructor-led OFM software sessions covering database structure, interface navigation, and core OFM functionality
  • Data import and dataset creation workshops applying structured data import procedures to production and reservoir datasets
  • Data visualisation exercises using OFM's graphical tools to create well and reservoir performance views
  • Production analysis and decline curve workshops applying OFM's analytical tools to production forecasting and constraint identification
  • Advanced OFM functionality sessions covering scenario planning, sensitivity analysis, and integration with reservoir simulation tools
