This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Petrel Reservoir Geomechanics. It covers the reservoir geomechanics and its significance in reservoir management; the basic concepts and principles of stress, strain and rock mechanics; the properties and mechanical behavior of rocks; the mechanisms of pore pressure generation and its impact on reservoir behavior; the data requirements for geomechanical studies and integration of geomechanical concepts in Petrel; and the geomechanical models in Petrel and 1D mechanical earth modeling (MEM). Further, the course will also discuss the stress modeling and analysis, importing and integrating geological data and calibrating geomechanical models; the 3D geomechanical modeling and evaluating the impact of faults and fractures in geomechanical models; predicting and managing wellbore instabilities; the hydraulic fracturing simulation and reservoir compaction and subsidence modeling; the fundamentals of coupled reservoir-geomechanical analysis; and integrating geomechanical models with reservoir simulation. 
 During this interactive course, participants will learn the impact of geomechanics on fluid flow and predicting and managing reservoir-induced seismicity; optimizing field development plans using geomechanics; the latest advances in reservoir geomechanics; the challenges in shale, tight sands, and other unconventional plays; the risk management and uncertainty analysis in geomechanics; the machine learning and AI in geomechanical modeling; and the potential of advanced data analysis techniques.
