Participants in the "Coring and Conventional Core Analysis" training course are individuals seeking to enhance their knowledge and experience in the fields of geology, geophysics, petrophysics, and reservoir engineering. The course aims to provide participants with valuable insights into real rock data, its source, interpretation methods, and how to effectively utilize 3D data for maximum benefit.

Course Objectives:

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

Know the vital role of Coring
What to get from core analysis?
Maximize the usage of core data
Understand and justify possible reservoir behavior ambiguities
Apply interpreted core data to environment and facies

Who Should Attend?

Personnel who should attend are:

Petrophysicists
