    This is a remote delivery of Fundamentals of Integrated Reservoir Analysis, it can be presented in either public or closed formats.  For closed classes the agenda can be customized to fit the client needs.

    The course is focused reservoir petrophysics and discusses core-log integration, pore-geometry, petrophysical rock types analysis, applied capillary pressure, applied flow units and saturation height modeling.

    This course consist of 10 four hour sessions for a total of 40 hours. Participants complete approximately 10-12 hours of applied workshops using Excel.

    The goals of Fundamentals of  Integrated Reservoir Analysis is for participants to understand the concepts and develop subsurface skills to integrated analysis of rock, pore, and fluids from various sources.  

    Participants gain an appreciation of working with various scales (micro to mega) to solve problems associated with identifying and exploiting reserves. Concepts gained will allow participants to apply tools for analysis of the underlying uncertainty and assumptions used in many reservoir analysis techniques.

    A subsurface integration process model is presented which provides a multidiscipline integrated methodology for solving reservoir problems, from facies, petrophysical rock typing, flow unit characterization and an introduction to capillary pressure saturation height modeling.

    Throughout the course the participants are encouraged to think about "big picture" volume in-place, static modelling and dynamic reservoir simulation. The course is intended for participants that are using petrophysical data to build reservoir static models.
