An Interactive 5-Day Training Course
Characteristic Analysis of Carbonated Reservoir
Integrated Formation Evaluation in
Clastic and Carbonate Reservoirs
Course Overview
This training course provides the participants with an advanced understanding of the integrated formation evaluation techniques and well log analysis applications. This Characteristic Analysis of Carbonated Reservoir training course will cover the physical principles of the logging tools and the full advanced interpretation workflow for reservoir characterization.
More specifically, by the end of this training course, the participants will understand the properties of the rocks and the reservoir fluids; analyse and integrate the core analysis datasets; evaluate the NMR logs and run the full NMR interpretation workflow; run pressure plots and detect the free water level / oil water contact and run saturation height modeling.
This Characteristic Analysis of Carbonated Reservoir training course will cover the advanced log interpretation workflow with the quantitative techniques for the quality control and quality assurance procedures for the raw datasets. Different real examples from different parts of the world will be used throughout the training course to help the attendees understanding the reservoir characterization concept and the integrated analysis in either clastic or carbonate reservoirs.
This Saudi GLOMACS training course will highlight:
- Conventional tools principles and their applications in log interpretation
- Logs QC / QA, depth matching, splicing and logs normalisation
- Core data analysis and Integration with conventional and advanced E-Logs
- NMR tool principles / interpretation and saturation height modeling
- Advanced reservoir characterization including facies and permeability modeling
- Practical training examples using different wells in different reservoir types
