COURSE OVERVIEW

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. 

 

The solution to complex and challenging hydrocarbon reservoir problems requires the participation of disciplines that provide different and complementary insights about the reservoir. However, very little training is available to address the multidisciplinary, integrated nature of reservoir characterization and simulation projects. Typical oil industry training is usually focused on improving skills in one discipline, with little emphasis on integrated solutions that aim to solve a common problem. 

 

At the end of this course, participants will understand the contributions from all team members (geologists, petrophysicists, geophysicists and reservoir engineers) to an integrated reservoir characterization project. Participants will also learn the value of geological, petrophysical, geophysical and engineering data and methods required for the project and will determine the key questions which have to be addressed and answered by the integrated team.
