INTEGRATED FIELD DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
Field development is becoming much more complex and expensive, so getting it right is critical. NExT offers four different FDP programs, each providing the opportunity to learn fundamental approaches in developing and working an FDP. The program incorporates the latest technologies and software to enable customers to design a suitable, long-term, and profitable develop-ment strategy.
NExT offers FDP training that accelerates and transforms technical skills. It
builds expertise in FDP techniques, tools, and workflows that are needed
to address the challenges of field developments.
This training is unique because it includes theory, software training,
model building, workflows, and an in-class project designed to reinforce
lessons and demonstrate the acquired practical skills and understanding.
The immersive, comprehensive curriculum starts from general
understanding and extends to in-depth field assessment with economics,
risk, and standard analysis techniques that provide a complete
understanding of FDP.
