clude four hours of study of tran
sient flow, eight hours of well
performance, 12 hours of evalua

from field performance and lab
oratory data, 12 hours of study
of the influence of patterns and
stratification on performance of
fluid injection programs, 32 hours
of reservoir performance and eight
hours of application of digital
computers to the solution of pe
troleum reservoir engineering
problems.
Professor Whiting said tl(
courses are an outgrowth of suit,
mer courses offered in 1956 ati
1957. Since their inception, I
engineers have returned from it
dustry to attend the courses.
The courses are conducted ii
