PETROENG 4033 - Integrated Reservoir and Project Management

North Terrace Campus - Semester 1 - 2020

This course consists of two distinct short course components, Integrated Reservoir Management and Project Management. Project Management outlines the necessary management processes and control methods required for the successful management of resources, budgets and costs, and schedule. The course covers all major elements of project management, with emphasis on delivering a project in budget and on time. Areas covered will include an overview of project management, project initiation, project plan development, project execution and delivery, monitoring and control and project closeout. Key concepts, terms and principles of project management and project management methodology for the whole life cycle of a project will be covered. Students will learn to plan projects, handle multiple stakeholders, build a Work Breakdown Structure, estimate resources, optimise schedules, quality control, manage stakeholder communications, risk planning, tracking and reporting of project status. Students will also gain an appreciation of the roles and skills of the project manager and all team members. Integrated Reservoir Management is aimed at bringing together learnings from geology, geophysics, formation evaluation, reservoir engineering, wellbore engineering and surface facilities engineering. It will discuss a wide variety of reservoir description, surveillance, interpretation, studies, reserves determination, production forecasting and operational considerations which together constitute Integrated Reservoir Management. It focuses on providing a basis for practical development and implementation of Integrated Reservoir Management and Reserves Optimisation programs with emphasis on cost effectiveness and economic justification.

  • Learning & Teaching Activities
    Learning & Teaching Modes
    Integrated Reservoir Management
    Learning will be via individual and team research and presentation. Lectures and student presentations are expected to be Socratic in style with all students learning from each other.

    Project Management
    The lessons will be conducted in the form of lectures supported by problem-solving tutorials and hands-on individual and team activities to promote participation, build team morale, and reinforce understanding of concepts.

    The lecturer will relate and associate the topics to their own real life experiences in the working environment in order to ensure all students understand how the materials to be presented are relevant to them and the jobs they will be doing in industry. Real life examples and case studies will be discussed with commentary by the lecturer. This allows participants to appreciate the entire scenarios, processes, and the subsequent results.

    In addition to PowerPoint presentations and flip-charts, used as key training aids to convey subjects in an easy-to-understand format, course participants will work together as teams in simulated project environments and are required to produce actual deliverables in the form of project management plans in a short period of time.

  • Assessment

    The University'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.

    This assessment breakdown complies with the University's Assessment for Coursework Programs Policy.


    Due to the current COVID-19 situation modified arrangements have been made to assessments to facilitate remote learning and teaching. Assessment details provided here reflect recent updates.

    To support the changes to teaching, the following revisions to assessment have been made. These changes were approved by the school.

    Coursework assessment tasks and weighting will change and information will be provided at the start of the course.
    The final examination will now be a coursework examination submitted through MyUni rather than an invigilated examination. Details to be provided at a later date.
    Assessment Related Requirements
    There will be in-term tests that will count towards the final assessment as stipulated above. Alternative test dates for students who cannot be present on the date of the test on medical and compassionate grounds can be requested through the Course Coordinator.
    Assessment Detail
    The individual assessment tasks are identified in section 5.1
    Submission
    Integrated Reservoir Management:
    For details of submission of assessment please refer to the course assessment booklet emailed to enrolled students by Dr Steve Mackie.

    Project Management:
    Submission of assessment tasks will be handled in class.

    Extensions for Assessment Tasks
    Extensions of deadlines for assessment tasks may be allowed for reasonable causes. Such situations would include compassionate and medical grounds of the severity that would justify the awarding of a supplementary examination. Evidence for the grounds must be provided when an extension is requested. Students are required to apply for an extension to the Course Coordinator before the assessment task is due. Extensions will not be provided on the grounds of poor prioritising of time.

    Penalty for Late Submission of Assessment Tasks
    Assessment tasks must be submitted by the stated deadlines. There will be a penalty for late submission of assessment tasks. The submitted work will be marked ‘without prejudice’ and 10% of the obtained mark will be deducted for each working day (or part of a day) that an assessment task is late, up to a maximum penalty of 50% of the mark attained. An examiner may elect not to accept any assessment task that a student wants to submit after that task has been marked and feedback provided to the rest of the class.
    Course Grading

    Grades for your performance in this course will be awarded in accordance with the following scheme:

    M10 (Coursework Mark Scheme)
    Grade Mark Description

  • Student Feedback

    The University 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 University 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.

    Provision of Feedback to Students
    Exercises will be returned to students within two weeks of their submission.

    Communication
    It is important that all students maintain active communication channels throughout the course. The primary communication channels to students in this course are as follows.

    Email: Each student should regularly check his or her University-provided email account (firstname.lastname@student.adelaide.edu.au) for information from members of the academic staff concerning course work matters and other announcements as they arise. Make sure you clean up your Inbox regularly as if it is full you will not receive our email! We will regard an email message being sent to your student email address as our having communicated with each member of the class. Not reading one’s University provided email will not be a valid excuse for missing important deadlines etc.
  • 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.
