The objective of this course is to introduce concepts and methods in trap and seal analysis particularly as related to fault characterization including fault mapping and fault seal to geoscientists (geologists and geophysicists) and petroleum engineers so that they can apply these principles in their exploration and development projects. The lecture introduces fundamentals and advanced concepts for faulting and flow for the prediction of fault behaviour in subsurface traps. The concepts discussed in the lecture course are applied in simple exercises and related to the capabilities in the PETREL structural and fault analysis module to reinforce the technology.
