Why Choose this Training Course?
This Petrographic and Reservoir Quality Analysis of Siliciclastic and Carbonate Reservoirs training course focuses on some of the most important challenges facing the exploration of oil/gas reservoirs, that’s the types of controls on reservoir quality of siliciclastic and carbonate reservoirs.
Innovative petrographic analyses will permit to:
- Improve the knowledge of petrographic & diagenetic markers for reservoir quality assessment of exploration targets
- Understand the differences between siliciclastic and carbonate rocks in terms of depositional environments, provenance, initial porosity and porosity evolution of reservoir sediments during burial
- To help choose the best analytical petrographic analyses on core samples, cuttings and outcrop rocks to optimize the completion of geological projects for a certain exploration play
What are the Goals?
By attending this Petrographic and Reservoir Quality Analysis of Siliciclastic and Carbonate Reservoirs training course, you will learn to:
- Understand the Petrographic techniques for the study of sedimentary rocks
- Distinguish between Siliciclastic & Carbonate sediments in terms of main controls on reservoir quality
- Identify the potential Petrographic/Diagenetic markers for Paleo-Environmental and Diagenetic Reconstructions
- Implement innovative analytical programs for ongoing or future geological projects
- Correlate sedimentary sequences by means of Petrographic results
- Build a multi-well Petrographic/reservoir quality model for regional exploration projects
Who is this Training Course for?
This Petrographic and Reservoir Quality Analysis of Siliciclastic and Carbonate Reservoirs training course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:
- Sedimentary geologists of service and oil companies
- Junior to mid-level geologists carrying out rock-based geological projects
- Sedimentologists who need to be conversant on reservoir quality concepts
- Petrographers of small and large oil-industry organizations
- PhD students in sedimentary geology of academic institutions
Daily Agenda
Day One to Day Five:
- Introduction to Siliciclastic and Carbonate Reservoirs with emphasis on controls on reservoir quality
- Sandstone composition, provenance, diagenesis and tectonic settings
- Carbonate composition (allochems, orthochems), classification and diagenesis
- Petrographic analyses (TS, SEM, CL), XRD, QEMSCAN and integration of reservoir quality results
- Porosity classification, porosity evolution vs. burial depth, stratigraphy, composition, authigenic components and diagenetic phases/environments
- Examples of current oil/gas reservoirs in terms of petrography vs. stratigraphy & reservoir quality
Certificate
- On successful completion of this Training Course / Online Training Course, a PetroKnowledge Certificate / E-Certificate will be awarded to the delegates.
