Introduction
The term Geostatistics is very versatile and can be looked at from different points of view. The applied Geo-statistics field, especially for oil and gas, will be discussed during the course with a great emphasis on the reservoir modeling, 4 D Seismic applications, Mud logs and E logs
Application of geostatistical techniques to build reservoir models through the integration of geological, core/well log, seismic and production data to generate a consistent reservoir description. Introduces reservoir modeling workflow from the construction of the 3D static reservoir model through upscaling and dynamic reservoir simulation.
It provides background and insights to geostatistical modeling techniques and the situations where the application of geostatistics could add value. Provides guidance in the assembly and analysis of the required data for geostatistical techniques and the resulting numerical models. Includes extensive hands-on training and problem solving using public domain software. If available, commercial software (typically PETREL) is used to demonstrate the workflow with a field example.
Objectives
The main objective of this course to use all data, techniques, and tools to applications and tasks rather than mathematics and algorisms behind it. Learning how to be a member in a real team by the cooperation of all branches (Geophysics, Geology, Petrophysics and reservoir engineer) to build better geological models, and then go through reservoir simulation
Training Methodology
The program is delivered in a combination of lecture-style and computer-based training. In addition, a significant amount of time is set aside for small working group activity when addressing case study problems. Extensive use is made of case study material to underline the key aspects of the course and to give the delegates exposure to current best practice.
Who Should Attend?
Practicing reservoir and production engineers, Geologist, Petrophysics and geoscientists working as a part of an integrated reservoir management team
