WATER MODELLING IN FLOODED AREAS IN THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY

Pretoria
17 February to 28 February
Kigali -Rwanda
3 February to 14 November
Overview: 

Water Modelling in Flooded Areas course outline is designed for Environmentalist working in Oil companies who are tasked with the duty of managing water separated from oil during drilling as well as managing natural waters during drilling and environmental reclamation. The key focus of the course is on developing an understanding of the necessary review processes and review elements to ensure that the modelling represents the correct hydrological and hydraulic processes

In this training workshop ATI provides deepening insights on the latest flood estimation procedures and hydraulic modelling processes for assessing site-specific flood risk, the latest runoff estimation procedures for development sites, and approaches to Sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) and conceptual drainage design. Delegates will be exposed to drainage solutions that provide an alternative to the direct channelling of surface water through networks of pipes and sewers to nearby watercourses. 

Delegates will be equipped with skills to make use of various modelling techniques used for the prediction and the prevention studies of flood disaster. Studies covered in this module include mathematical, visualization such as 2D/3D (Dimension) mapping and statistical methods, and new Geographic Information System (GIS) technologies are used while producing flood risk map

Target Audience: 

The course is designed for Environmentalist working in the oil and Gas Industry

Course Outcomes: 

Upon completing this workshop, the delegates should be able to:

 

  • Apply effective water modelling strategies
  • Understand the principle and concepts of water modelling in flooded areas

  • Implement Modelling guideline specification, in order to produce accurate results
  • Use Flood modelling as a cost-effective tool for floodplain management
  • Deal with Statistical procedures for flood frequency estimation in oil areas
  • Understand model calibration using multiple varying magnitudes
  • Apply principles of sustainable drainage systems or SUDS design process
  • Understand floodplain peak water level and debris mark comparison
