Develop measurable skills and capabilities
Natural fractures are increasingly recognized as dominant permeability paths in many reservoirs. Unfortunately, there are few guidelines available for geologists and engineers characterizing and engineering naturally fractured reservoirs. This course is intended as an up-to-date summary of an integrated reservoir study including characterizatio...

Characterization of Naturally Fractured Reservoirs.
• Geological and petrophysical analysis of reservoir cores.
Day 2Screening reservoir data for waterflood and gas injection candidates.
• Core-log integration, reservoir characterization.
• Development of specific algorithms for log evaluation (identification of pay zones and water saturation in the pay)
• Fracture identification (natural or coring induced) and characterization.
Day 3Well test analysis and analysis of inflow performance of horizontal wells.
• Imbibition, capillary pressure, interfacial tension and wettability determination.
• Scaling laboratory results to predict waterflood response.
Day 4Numerical simulation of waterflooding Naturally Fractured Reservoirs.
• Phase behavior and Minimum Miscibility Pressure (MMP) determination.
• Gas injection experiments in fractured systems (whole core at reservoir conditions).
Day 5Evaluation, scaling and design of gas injection results for implementation of projects in naturally fractured systems.
• Case history review of Midale CO2 Pilot and Wellman Unit CO2 Flood
