SUMMARY:Tech 101 Series: Well Testing — Automation on Surface Well Testing and the impact on the reservoir performance
DESCRIPTION:Synopsis\n\nThe SPE Young Professionals Tech101 series is an event primarily targeted at entry to mid-level engineers within the oil and gas community\, to provide “101” level education on topics across the industry. Professionals of all experience levels are open to come\, but keep in mind materials presented are catered to young professionals. \nThis event is free to sign up for members and students. \nAbstract\n\nDigitalization and automation are transforming the way well testing data is acquired\, monitored\, and interpreted. This presentation introduces the fundamentals of well testing and focuses on how automated well testing solutions\, such as FloConnect\, enhance data quality and directly impact reservoir performance evaluation. \nThe session will begin with an overview of traditional well testing objectives. It will then demonstrate how automation packages enable real-time data acquisition\, remote monitoring\, and improved control of surface well testing equipment. \nThrough operational examples\, the presentation will highlight how higher-frequency\, higher-quality data improves pressure interpretation\, reduces uncertainty in reservoir properties\, and supports faster\, more informed reservoir management decisions. The impact of automation on test efficiency\, safety\, and repeatability will also be discussed\, along with its role in minimizing operational variability that can mask true reservoir behavior. \nThis presentation is designed for engineers and geoscientists seeking a practical understanding of how well testing automation bridges operations and reservoir performance. \nSpeaker – Reginaldo Miranda\n\nReginaldo Miranda is an Electrical Engineer with over 13 years of experience in the oil and gas industry\, currently based in Perth\, Australia. Throughout his career\, Reginaldo has supported well testing\, subsea and DST operations in both onshore and offshore environments. His experience includes surface well testing systems\, automation packages\, equipment reliability\, and operational execution\, with a strong focus on safety\, data integrity\, and real-time decision making. Since relocating to Australia in 2022\, he has been involved in supporting complex well testing operations\, leveraging digital and automated solutions to improve data quality and reservoir understanding. \nAgenda\n\nPrice:             Free for members and students \nDate:              Wednesday\, 29th April 2026 \nLocation:       Wood – 240 St Georges Terrace\, Perth WA \nTime: \n11:30 – 11:45     Registration \n11:45 – 12:45     Presentation & Lunch (PROVIDED) \n12:45 – 13:00     Q&A \n13:00                  Session ends
