Formation Evaluation for Engineers

Description :

This training is intended to give a broad understanding of petrophysics and to allow participants to confidently interpret log data. The course will cover all the aspects of the fundamentals of open hole formation evaluation, from basic reservoir concepts to porosity and saturation computations in carbonate and sandstone reservoirs. The emphasis during the course will be on the fundamental "Science" and on the efficient use of logs. The course will also introduce the latest open hole logging techniques and technology development. A strong element of log quality control is also included with multiple exercises.
