With 26 years of experience as a specialist in artificial lift and well productivity and software development applied to oil production. He has worked as an instructor teaching courses in the area of \u200b\u200boil production where he has trained 700+ engineers in the companies where he has worked. Mr. Caicedo has developed innovative projects working in multidisciplinary teams. He has developed calculation tools to assist field engineers in the Productivity of Wells with Cyclic Steam Injection including calculations of injection heat losses, heating radii, Hot Productivity Index and Artificial Lift cooling model. He has also worked on the calculations of the Effects of Resistive Heating in Well Bottom with BCP \/ BM. Mr. Caicedo has developed uncertainty methods for the production area, such as the calculation of volumes of Gels for Water Control. He has also studied the Feasibility of Ultrasound for Stimulation of Wells, and has published multiple articles on Production Optimization. Mr. Caicedo has worked as a specialist in artificial lifting in Venezuela, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates and the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Caicedo was awarded with the SPE Middle East Production and Operations Award 2015 for his technical contributions in artificial lifting for the production of hydrocarbons.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Nodal Analysis is the fundamental method used by production engineers to study and evaluate wells. Nodal analysis is a technique to determine the flow condition of a well through two subsystems: &#8220;Inflow&#8221; and &#8220;outflow&#8221; defined by a &#8220;node&#8221; (point reference). Nodal analysis concepts apply to wells in natural flow, artificial lift wells to injection wells and for this reason it is important to understand the purpose, assumptions, phenomena involved and the limitations of the method.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3399\" src=\"https:\/\/www.upcoglobal.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/CERTIFICATE.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"301\" height=\"25\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.upcoglobal.com\/academy\/free-nodal-analysis\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><button class=\"single_add_to_cart_button button alt\" name=\"add-to-cart\" type=\"submit\" value=\"3262\">take chapter 1 free<\/button><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3398,"template":"","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[71,78,67],"product_tag":[76],"class_list":{"0":"post-3262","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-most-popular","7":"product_cat-available","8":"product_cat-online-training","9":"product_tag-english","11":"first","12":"instock","13":"sale","14":"sold-individually","15":"shipping-taxable","16":"purchasable","17":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.upcoglobal.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/3262","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.upcoglobal.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.upcoglobal.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.upcoglobal.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3398"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.upcoglobal.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3262"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.upcoglobal.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=3262"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.upcoglobal.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=3262"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.upcoglobal.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=3262"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
