About Training
The richness and immediacy of wireline log data have advanced immensely in recent year — more data, more curves, more acronyms, and are available sooner. There is vital qualitative and quantitative data in the logs.
The course describes all aspects of the principles and methods associated with the geological interpretation of open-hole well logs. The class deals with both well-established and newer, more experimental tools, showing how log data can be used to determine lithology and interpret facies, stratigraphic and structural features.
Comprehensive Geological Analysis through Logging Data
This program shall teach how logging data can be a complementary set for lithology interpretation, facies recognition, log sequence analysis and correlation. Individual logging tools will be described in terms of basic functions, physical principles, and geological interpretation.
Includes Specific and Practical Case Studies
There will be frequent work sessions throughout the course using real data. The course will include computer-based demonstrations of well-log interpretation software.
Training Objectives
Learn What Logging Tools to Use and When to Use them
Differentiate the functions, physical principles, and limitations of logging tools used in a standard logging suite and their applications for geological interpretation. Attendees will be able to demonstrate the differences between logs acquired using wireline conveyance and logs acquired whilst drilling.
Enhanced Geological Interpretation through Logging Tools & Data
Attendees will be able to analyse well logs and cores, together with other available data, to produce a coherent geological evaluation. The well logs will be used to determine lithologies and interpret facies, stratigraphic and structural features. Furthermore, attendees will be able to know how to employ dipmeter and borehole imaging tools and analyse their interpretation patterns to indicate structural and stratigraphic features.
Generate Important Geological & Geophysical Data from Well Logs
Determine shale volume, porosity, and water saturation from well logs. You will also learn how to correlate between wells using well logs, integrating other available down-hole data to enhance data analysis in the field.
Audiences
The course best suits those beginning to acquaint themselves with logs or those who do not use logs all the time and need a refresher. The class is aimed primarily at inexperienced Petrophysicists, Geologists, and Geophysicists, whether in exploration or exploitation, but is also good for Technologists, Petroleum Engineers and new-hire Petrophysicists.
Job Titles Include:
- Petrophysicists
- Geologists
- Geophysicists
- Geoscientists
- Subsurface Managers
- Exploration Managers
