Description

Designed for you, if you are...

• A geologist, petrophysicist, geophysicist or reservoir engineer
• Technical or managerial staff involved in subsurface development, exploration or reservoir characterisation

How we build your confidence

• Discussion point examples and exercises make sure that theoretical concepts are well understood
• Principles and methods are introduced in simple terms and built on in a structured fashion

The benefits from attending

• How to determine the type of borehole image log, data quality and to carry out a basic ‘desktop’ interpretation within minutes of receiving an image log plot
• The information that can be extracted from a borehole image log
• The interpretation process and the results delivered by consultants
• How borehole image logs help with geomechanics and borehole stability
• The strength of integration with other data and studies
• How borehole image logs can be used to answer reservoir characterisation questions

Topics

• Introduction to borehole images - image log technology, image log service providers and tools
• Image log acquisition, processing and QC
• Workflow for data acquisition from processed image logs and interpretation - sedimentology, structural geology and geomechanics
• Surface and electro-facies identification and classification
• Identification of structural zones and quantification of tilt and orientation
• Palaeodirection and palaeotransport analysis
• Integration of image log data with other datasets
• Determination of in-situ stress and its application
