ABOUT THE COURSE

The Fundamentals of Petrophysics course cover concepts of Petrophysics. The course focuses on reservoir properties and the life of oil and gas wells. Attendees will gain a better understanding of methodologies used to calculate spontaneous potential and measurements. Different ways of evaluating resistivity and porosity will be discussed. Entrants will comprehend the principles, applications, and integrations of petrophysical information for reservoir description. The plan of this course is to provide thorough details about Petrophysics and other subsurface disciplines. You will learn to analyse the log, core, geoscience, and engineering well data for field development projects. Further discussions will include Hydrocarbon identification, Magnetic Resonance Imaging & Borehole Imaging. This program will provide insights into the borehole measurement and evaluation of hydrocarbon reservoirs. This course is a requisite for anyone associated with the subsurface within the petroleum industry. You will assimilate the classical workflow with bits and bytes of wireline logs as well as how to perform qualitative log interpretation from data quality control to the determination of porosity, water saturation and permeability. Through a synthesis of group discussions, exercises and workshops, entrants can swiftly grasp how to conduct competent quick-look evaluations. Attendees can incorporate practices and techniques taught in this course for better results in the field. Using resources and skills from this course participants will acquire skills in ways to integrate petrophysical information with other data sources which will further help in improving participants’ ability to gauge technical risks while examining hydrocarbon elbow room.
