    Practical Geothermal Modelling with Petrel

    This course is designed for geoscientists, working in the oil and gas industry, to give them an overview of geothermal energy and how to build a geothermal reservoir model using Petrel.

    This course will focus on:

    • Geothermal energy, source, and global distribution
    • Elements and classification of geothermal system
    • Major steps in the exploration, characterization, and development of a geothermal system
    • Life-cycle and energy production of a geothermal system
    • Necessity of geological modeling for geothermal energy development
    Students will have the opportunity to apply the workflows during the class during hands-on sessions.

    This course could also be delivered remotely. Its duration can be adjusted.
