PL-220 PowerLog®: Rock Physics Module (RPM) Training

Audience

This course is intended for advanced PowerLog users who want to effectively use the Rock Physics Module.

Content

Rock Physics Module is a calculation engine for computing rock physics models. It works in conjunction with PowerLog, using log curves from a PowerLog well as input and generating output curves that are written back to the PowerLog project.  Conventional petrophysics vs. seismic petrophysics.

• Building a simple Rock Physics Module workflow, checking the Rock Physics Module results in PowerLog
• Using predefined workflows to calculate bulk density, compressional velocity, shear velocity, fluid properties, and Gassmann fluid substitution
• Integrating petrophysics and rock physics
• Calculating a workflow for multiple wells and zones the display and printing workflows

Learning Objectives

Learn how a rock physics model can help integrate petrophysical data and seismic data to arrive at a consistent inversion and accurate rock property volumes.
