Carbonate Reservoir Characterization “RC”

This course is designed for all G&G staff that has some background on carbonate sedimentology to project it onto reservoir characterization (RC) to upgrade their knowledge as well as sharpen their skills to meet both lab work analysis review in order to run successfully any related exploration and development projects.

The learning material , while running the course, will have direct impact on understanding, creating and Facies interpretation and solving any related “RC” problems

Methodology of such course is especially tailored to be a mix of workshop style with live examples and practical group exercises and videos

Audience

This course is designed for:

Middle experienced geologists/geophysicists and reservoir engineers who are involved in working together in G&G&E teams to develop areas or specific fields

Course objectives

The course will provide attendees a professional ability to apply what they know and what they will learn during the workshop sessions for future real life application for multiple carbonate “RC” risks, problems and uncertainties
