    Shale Reservoirs - Applied Core Analysis

    The objective of an integrated Core Analysis program is to evaluate the two most fundamental requirements for successful production from unconventional gas reservoirs: reservoir quality and completion quality. Unconventional gas reservoirs are heterogeneous and strongly anisotropic. It is important to develop a model that can deal with this variability and provide useful information for the preparation of a field development strategy for the exploitation of unconventional reservoirs. Analyses of organic-rich mudstone cores can provide valuable information in understanding the quality of the reservoir and provide critical input to the completion design.

    This course provides the attendees with an integrated workflow to assess unconventional resources through core analysis. Participants will be exposed to specialized core measurement techniques required to assess reservoir and completion quality in these formations.

    This course is designed to expose the multi-disciplinary asset team of operating companies comprising of engineers, geoscientists, financial decision makers, and managers to gas shale resource
