DESIGNED FOR
Geologists, geophysicists, petrophysicists, reservoir and production engineers, exploration-production managers, all team members involved in reservoir characterization, technicians working with clastic reservoirs. The course provides a refresher in new concepts in this field for geoscientists at a foundation level.
YOU WILL LEARN HOW TO
Interpret clastic depositional environments using data from cores, cuttings and wireline logs (including FMI)
Apply new sequence stratigraphic concepts to clastic reservoirs
Correlate wells using knowledge of depositional environment
Predict reservoir size, shape, trend and quality
ABOUT THE COURSE
This course is essential for geoscientists and engineers involved in the exploration and development of clastic reservoirs. It focuses on methods that can be used to improve the prediction of reservoir size, shape, trend and quality through detailed analysis of depositional environments. The sedimentary characteristics of each of the principal clastic depositional systems are presented in detail, using examples from recent environments, outcrops, cores, wireline logs and test/production data from oil and gas fields in various parts of the world (United States, North Sea/Atlantic, Africa, Middle East, Far East etc). Practical exercises are taken from each of the principal depositional settings and involve detailed mapping, interpretation of core and log characteristics, and integration of data from FMI logs. Emphasis is placed on the application of fundamental sedimentary principles (modern, ancient and subsurface) to actual subsurface data so that the participants can immediately use the information in their exploration and development activities.
