Petrophysics for Low Resistivity Thin Bed Reservoirs Course
Introduction:
Exploration efforts are increasingly focused on thinly bedded reservoirs, presenting unique challenges in their evaluation. The availability of data related to these formations can be difficult to interpret and may sometimes lead to misleading results.
This program is specifically designed to comprehensively address the petrophysical analysis of thinly bedded reservoirs. Attendees will be equipped with the knowledge and skills to effectively select appropriate interpretation techniques based on the available data and the known characteristics of the formation. The program will cover all relevant aspects of this analysis, enabling participants to make informed decisions and successfully navigate the complexities associated with thinly bedded reservoirs.
Course Objectives:
Identify possible hc potential for thin bedded sequences
- Learn the petrophysical techniques in interpreting log data from low resistivity, thin bedded sequences in order to identify possible hc sources.
Characterize various types of thinly bedded reservoirs
- Analyze various determining characteristics of thinly bedded reservoirs such as that in laminated sand shale sequences, in cleans sands, and in carbonates.
Understand the challenges in detecting pay zones & their accurate evaluation
- Identify the challenges and pitfalls in detecting pay zones in thin-bed reservoirs and their accurate evaluation.
Apply the right techniques for evaluating thin bed reservoirs
- Identify which logging techniques has been useful, what have been most successful, and the available technologies that can help better evaluate these reservoirs
