    Rock Typing is a method of classifying facies based on similarities in porosity and permeability, while honouring their depositional processes and diagenetic fabric. An ideal rock type can be integrated into a static geological model and used in reservoir simulation to predict fluid flow.

    Given its importance in the reservoir characterization workflow, this course will explore various rock typing methodologies and their suitability for clastic and carbonate depositional environments. Participants will gain a clear understanding of nomenclature and techniques used in rock typing.

    Petrophysics, Geologists and reservoir engineers with some oil and gas experience.

    • Reservoir Characterisation of Carbonate facies and facies models
    • Reservoir Characterisation of Clastic facies and facies models
    • Introduction to Rock typing nomenclature and methodologies

    A proficient knowledge in Geology, petrophysics or reservoir engineering with a basic knowledge of formation evaluation preferable.
