COURSE OVERVIEW

This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. 

 

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Integrating Petrophysical, Geomechanical & Seismic Measurements of Rock Physics. It covers the importance of rock physics in oil and gas exploration and production; the basic principles of rock physics; the rock types and textures, petrophysical properties of rocks and elastic properties of rocks; the laboratory measurement techniques, well log interpretation, petrophysical evaluation of reservoirs and fluid substitution analysis; and the impact of rock water on petrophysical properties. 

 

Further, the course will also discuss the importance on capillary pressure and relative permeability in rock physics; the principle of geomechanics, in-situ stress and strain analysis and rock mechanical properties and their measurement; the wellbore stability and sand production; and the fracture mechanics in rock physics and seismic wave propagation in rocks.
