Geochemistry can solve a wide range of problems during petroleum exploration, development, field production, and field decommissioning. Participants learn basic concepts of generation, migration, accumulation, and petroleum composition, and how to dramatically improve exploration success using tools such as geochemical logs; vitrinite reflectance; pyrolysis; organic facies variations; biomarkers, quantities generated and expelled; and distribution of source rock maturities. Quantitative computer modeling techniques provide information about the timing and efficiency of generation and migration. The course stresses the integration of geochemical data with geological and engineering information to identify reservoir compartments, allocate commingled production, and monitor flooding. Geochemical applications are illustrated with numerous worldwide case studies. No previous background in geochemistry is needed.
