Description

Designed for you, if you are...

• A petrophysicist, any geologist, operations geologist, engineer or core analyst who uses or creates petrophysical results for carbonate or 'complex' reservoirs

How we build your confidence

• All data is integrated, from drilling and LWD to well tests and the latest hi-tech logs via a recipe which provides a definitive set of results and a secure basis for decisions - a template for evaluating any complex reservoir
• The course explains how the physical characteristics of carbonates - tight, fractured or permeable - present failure points for classical log analysis
• How to drill, core, log, test and then integrate specifically to address these failure points is explained via a condensed learning session of interleaved theory, PetroDB-Vault IP demos, workshops and movies
• Drilling data, core, SCAL, logs, LithoScanner, NMR, Dielectric, Sigma, Acoustic, Image-logs and MDTs are all briefly explained and fitted together to form the definitive solution for any given data set
  
• 5 days of petrophysical saturation: morning recaps: Do this, don’t do that! PetroDB-Vault interactive demos; micro-practicals; movies; workshops; 25 years’ experience and debate

The benefits from attending

• The physical differences between carbonates and clastics and their data response implications
• Why extreme pores, vugs, fractures and oil wetness occur in carbonates and how to recognise and treat them
• Carbonate & fracture evaluation essentials. The failure points which must be identified & healed
• Why fracture well tests can be misleading and what critical other data you must have
• How common errors impact results using PetroDB-Vault interactive demos
• How to acquire and integrate key drilling, mudlog, core, special log and well test data
• How to do quick look carbonate log analysis and integrate capillary pressures with logs in Excel or IP
• How to do thorough, integrated and robust evaluations in any complex, conventional reservoir
• How end-users can critically review complex petrophysical results using the author’s greenlists
