Why Data Quality Matters: From Cement Evaluation to Formation Evaluation
Premium Webinar
For PEA Members Only
Every petrophysical answer is only as good as the data behind it. A single porosity unit of error can mean the difference of hundreds of thousands of barrels in your reserves estimate — and bad data starts at the wellsite, not in the interpretation software. In this premium webinar, Angel Meso draws on 40+ years of wireline and petrophysics experience to show how data quality problems creep in from cement evaluation through formation evaluation, how to catch them with proper QC checks, and what they cost you when you don't. Real log examples, real QC workflows, real consequences.
Webinar Objectives
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
Understand why data quality directly impacts reserves estimation — including what one porosity unit of error is worth in barrels
Apply quality control checks to cement evaluation logs, including light cement and the factors that affect cement bond measurements
Run advanced tool QC checks and recognize when a log is not fit for interpretation
Distinguish random from systematic errors and know how logging speed and measurement practice affect each
Recognize how poor data quality distorts basic formation evaluation — porosity, saturation, and permeability answers

Rock Physics Integration: from Petrophysics to Simulation
Join our 90-minute webinar on Rock Physics Integration: from Petrophysics to Simulation, where we will explore how rock physics connects petrophysical data, seismic response, geomechanics, and reservoir simulation in one integrated workflow. The session explains how elastic properties such as Vp/Vs and elastic moduli can be related to reservoir properties like porosity, saturation, pressure, laminations, and fractures to support a more reliable subsurface model.This webinar is designed for geoscience and reservoir professionals who want to understand how multidisciplinary data can be combined to improve interpretation, modeling, and prediction. It will show how rock physics helps align well, core, seismic, and reservoir engineering information to build a more complete three-dimensional understanding of the subsurface.
