This document outlines the course details for Petroleum Engineering 323 - Reservoir Models. The course is a required course that focuses on determination of oil and gas reserves through material balance methods, modeling water and gas drives, and modeling enhanced oil recovery processes. Topics covered include gas and oil material balance, reservoir performance forecasting, immiscible displacement theory, waterflooding patterns and recovery efficiencies, and enhanced oil recovery methods. Assessment is based on homework, quizzes, two midterm exams, and a final exam. The course supports program outcomes related to applying knowledge of mathematics and engineering to design and analyze reservoir models, and understanding enhanced oil recovery applications and recovery mechanisms.

Section 501: UTR 10:00 to 10:50 AM
Instructor : Michael Fraim 202C Phone: 33553780 Office: 44230471 Email: [email protected] Basis for Grade: Homework .10% Quizzes .10% Progress Exam 1.20% Progress Exam 2.25% Final Exam. .25% Attendance and Participation. .10% Exams: Progress Exam 1: Sunday February 20, 2012 Progress Exam 2: Sunday April 3, 2012 Final Exam: TBA Policies and Procedures:
Attendance: Attendance in class is expected. (1) Absence from class, (2)
arrival five or more minutes late to class or (3) doing anything other than
class work during class (sleeping, working on material from another class, etc.) will be recorded as an unexcused absence. If an illness or other event prevents attendance, the student should notify the instructor before class otherwise it will be considered as an unexcused absence. Six absences will be awarded an F in the class. Homework: It will be assigned to give opportunity to practice and master concepts and calculations needed for the course. In addition, doing and learning from homework will help your tests and final exam performance. Copying homework is considered an Aggie Honor Code Violation. Examinations: There will be two exams during the semester and a final exam. Make-up for examinations will be given at the discretion of the instructor and for university-excused absences only. Grading: Neat, legible, systematic, and complete presentation is required in homework assignments, quizzes and examinations for full credit. Units (for example, Newton-meters) must be included wherever appropriate for numeric quantities. Work which, while possibly correct, cannot be followed, will be considered incorrect. Occasionally, problems will be given out that earns you extra credit for the class. Getting Help: Every effort will be made to help you master the course material. Any time the instructors door is open, you are welcome. We may schedule help sessions for the class to deal with concerns that are raised by students. Academic Dishonesty: An Aggie does not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do. Upon accepting admission to Texas A&M University, a student immediately assumes a commitment to uphold the Honor Code, to accept responsibility for learning, and to follow the philosophy and rules of the Honor System. Students will be required to state their commitment on examinations, research papers, and other academic work. Ignorance of the rules does not exclude any member of the TAMUQ community from the requirements or the processes of the Honor System. For additional information please visit: www.qatar.tamu.edu/_files/TAMUQ_Aggie_Honor_System.pdf On all course work, assignments, and examinations at Texas A&M University at Qatar, the following Honor Pledge shall be preprinted and signed by the student: Aggie Code of Honor: An Aggie does not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do. Required Academic Integrity Statement: On my honor, as an Aggie, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this academic work
ADA Policy Statement: The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a federal anti-discrimination statue that provides comprehensive civil rights protection for persons with disabilities. Among other things, this legislation requires that all students with disabilities be guaranteed a learning environment that provides for reasonable accommodation of their disabilities. If you believe you have a disability requiring an accommodation, please contact the Department of Student Life, Services for Students with Disabilities, in Cain Hall or call 845-1637.
