Petroleum engineers and reservoir engineers with no formal geological training.
This course covers problems of predicting reservoir geometry and connectivity in three dimensions in heterogeneous rocks penetrated by a limited number of widely spaced wells, problems associated with mineral composition on the pore scale, and the contribution that geology can make to volumetric assessment of reserves.- Source Rocks and the origin of oil and gas: Depositional environment; kerogen; thermal maturation; migration of hydrocarbons; classification of natural gases and crude oil - Reservoir and seals: Clastic and carbonate reservoir sedimentology; Depositional environments; Sandbody geometry and connectivity; Permeability profiles; Porosity and the effects of diagenesis; Formation damage and clays; 3-D modeling - Structural geology: Basin types and plate tectonics; Trap types: structural; stratigraphic; combination- Geological maps; Reservoir, structure and isopach maps; Seismic mapping; Generating cross-sections- Exploration geology: Wireline logs; Play fairways and prospects- Seismic stratigraphy- Volumetrics: Geological input to reserves estimates
