Practical Reservoir Data Integration in Reservoir Characterisation: 5 days
Who Should Attend:
This course should be attended by:
- Reservoir modellers who need to understand how data should be prepared for modelling and also
- Technical specialists who need to know how to prepare data for modelling (e.g. geologists, geophysicists, petrophysicists, stratigraphers, engineers).
The course aims to establish a common language that better enables specialists and modellers to collaborate effectively.
Overview:
This course is designed to provide practical experience of common data integration issues encountered in the process of reservoir description. The course will focus on the workflow for building a static reservoir model and look at the key data preparation and interpretation processes that need to be undertaken in preparation for model building.
Contents:
- Fault Analysis: Integration of seismic fault picks, fault geometries, fault displacement models, core observations and wireline log character, pressure data.
- Depositional Modelling: Integration of core description; facies analysis; petrographic analysis; wireline log analysis; analogues data (ancient and modern); geological analysis of seismic.
- Determination of Geological Controls on Rock Properties: Entails the integration of wireline log responses; sedimentary facies description; petrophysical data; conventional and special core analysis; petrographic description; SEM; XRD.
- Stratigraphic Correlation: Integration of seismic surface picks; well log picks and core log description picks; synthetic seismograms; core Sedimentology; depositional models; facies analysis; wireline log character; biostratigraphy (also magnetostratigraphy, chemostratigraphy.), biofacies
- Mapping: The maps could include paleogeographies, facies maps, isopach maps and a range of property maps (e.g. porosity, N:G). These different maps require integration of a range of variables e.g. depositional models, sequence stratigraphic models, diagenetic models, petrophysical data, mapping algorithms, seismic attributes etc.
