reservoir geology
Course Description
Reservoir Geology will provide participants with a working knowledge of the main techniques (qualitative and quantitative) used by Reservoir/Development/Production Geologists in evaluating subsurface reservoir properties. Geological controls on porosity, permeability, relative permeability, and capillarity are discussed. Case histories review conventional methods of determination of net pay in a reservoir and demonstrate some improved techniques using data from core, sidewall core, cuttings, conventional plug measurements (porosity and permeability) in conjunction with capillary pressure data. The course focus will be on conceptual understanding and practical applications using hands-on exercises.
- Summarise important reservoir concepts and processes
- Review main techniques used to develop oil and gas fields
- Provide understanding of geological control on reservoir properties and the fundamental principles of fluid movement in the subsurface
- Introduce principle tools used to understand reservoir rocks and fluids
- Discuss Effective Reservoir Management Methods
Audience
The course will be of great value to production engineers, exploration and development geologists, petrophysicists and managers who will benefit from the straightforward and intuitive presentation of principles governing hydrocarbon accumulations and the rock properties that control their practical extraction.
