Petrophysics for Low Resistivity Thin Bed Reservoirs Course
Introduction:
Thinly bedded reservoirs are increasingly common exploration targets. However, evaluating such formations is difficult due to challenging and sometimes misleading data.
This program will cover all aspects of petrophysical analysis in thinly bedded reservoirs and will train attendees to select the best interpretation techniques based on the data available and the known characteristics of the formation.
Course Objectives:
Identify possible hc potential for thin bedded sequences
- Learn the petrophysical techniques in interpreting log data from low resistivity, thin bedded sequences in order to identify possible hc sources.
Characterize various types of thinly bedded reservoirs
- Analyze various determining characteristics of thinly bedded reservoirs such as that in laminated sand shale sequences, in cleans sands, and in carbonates.
Understand the challenges in detecting pay zones & their accurate evaluation
- Identify the challenges and pitfalls in detecting pay zones in thin-bed reservoirs and their accurate evaluation.
Apply the right techniques for evaluating thin bed reservoirs
- Identify which logging techniques has been useful, what have been most successful, and the available technologies that can help better evaluate these reservoirs
Who Should Attend?
- This program is developed for those who are working on interpreting log data from low resistivity, thin bedded sequences
- This program is also for those who will benefit from understanding the analysis of petrophysical data during exploration and development stage
Job Titles Include:
- Petrophysicists
- Log Analysts
- Exploration Geoscientists
- Development Geoscientists
- Subsurface Managers
Course Outlines:
- The thin bed problem
- Conventional, high resolution, and image based techniques
- Electrical anisotropy and how it is measured
- Tri-axial resistivity interpretation
- Anistropic formations and reservoir modeling
- Saturation height functions for thin beds
