Petrophysical Interpretation Supercharged

Course overview

The interesting field of petrophysics, the relationship between the rock, the fluid it contains, and their interactions—from the downhole reaction to the actual formation evaluation processes and techniques—will all be introduced to and familiarized with during this course.

Participants will learn about and investigate the tool’s response to various lithologies, which will aid in your comprehension of log readings, uses, and constraints. It will teach you the procedures and strategies for correctly interpreting well logs on both clean and shaly sand formations, along with the essential Petro-physical principles.

The concepts and methods of well log interpretation will be highlighted in this Training Bee course, which is intended for experts and professionals in the oil sector who work with wireline and/or LWD logs. There will be discussions on advanced interpretation techniques and procedures along with a number of tasks and examples involving intricate lithology interpretation approaches.

Introduction

To comprehend the basic elements of subsurface reservoir characterization and exploration, one must have a basic understanding of petrophysical properties, modeling, journaling, analysis of well logs, and interpretation. This area, which offers insights into the characteristics and behaviors of geological formations, is essential to the oil and gas sector.

Petrophysics is a multidisciplinary discipline that assesses subterranean formations’ potential for oil exploitation by combining engineering, physics, and geology. The goal of this introductory course is to give students a basic understanding of well log analysis, interpretation, modeling, and petrophysical characteristics.
