Geophysical Reservoir Characterisation
Who should attend?
Exploration geologists, structural geologists and geophysicists wishing to expand their knowledge of geophysics at the reservoir scale. Any geologist or reservoir engineer who is trying to build a better picture of their reservoir for production purposes would also find this course beneficial.
Overview:
The concept of reservoir geophysics is relatively new. In the past, the role of geophysics was largely confined to exploration and, to a lesser degree, the appraisal of discoveries. In recent years, however, geophysics has been increasingly used as a tool for refining development strategies and improving production efficiency. Fundamental to this approach are the availability of good quality seismic data and well control, and the integration of rock physics data from petrophysics and engineering studies. This course deals with the various aspects of the traditional approach of exploration geophysics before moving on to some of the more advanced aspects of reservoir geophysics.
