This course is divided into three parts, each focusing on log interpretation and quality control. Part #1, titled "Basic Logging Methods and Formation Evaluation," provides attendees with fundamental techniques for log analysis, borehole data acquisition methods, and problem-solving skills related to identifying and optimizing reserves.

Part #2, known as "Intermediate Formation Evaluation," guides participants on integrating formation evaluation data with core, seismic, geology, and production data. The course covers topics such as dip and image logs, as well as interpretations of MDT and RFT tools.

In Part #3, titled "Advanced Wellbore Analysis and Petrophysical Integration," the course delves into reservoir characterization. Attendees learn how to utilize pore geometry, petrophysical rock types, and flow units to predict reservoir performance and ultimate recovery. The course also covers topics like rock types, formation damage, capillary pressure, saturation distributions, and concepts of relative permeability. Additionally, attendees gain knowledge on performing scanning reservoir analysis based on rock types and flow units using petrophysical data.

Throughout the course, participants will acquire essential skills in log interpretation and quality control, enabling them to effectively analyze and integrate various data sources to characterize reservoirs and make informed predictions about their performance and recovery potential.
