Advanced Petrophysics
This program equips professionals with advanced skills in petrophysical analysis, data integration, and reservoir evaluation, essential for maximizing hydrocarbon recovery.
Description
The Advanced Petrophysics offers a complete journey into the science and application of petrophysics, emphasizing integration of core, log, and test data to solve real-world reservoir challenges. Participants will learn to evaluate porosity, permeability, and saturation; calibrate well logs with core data; and apply advanced workflows for both clastic and carbonate formations. Covering low resistivity pay, thin bed analysis, rock typing, and machine learning techniques, the course provides an applied understanding of reservoir quality and productivity. By program’s end, learners will have mastered modern tools and methodologies to conduct precise petrophysical evaluations and optimize reservoir management.
Petrophysics forms the backbone of reservoir understanding, linking geology, engineering, and economics. With increasing complexity in reservoirs, advanced interpretation methods are vital to reduce risk and improve recovery. This diploma program brings together fundamentals, data integration, and advanced applications to prepare professionals for the technical challenges of modern petroleum fields. Through structured learning and case-based scenarios, participants will gain the expertise to integrate multi-scale data and deliver reliable reservoir assessments that directly support exploration, development, and production decisions.
