Description
SUITABLE:
Geoscientists working on clastic environments (geologists, geophysicists, reservoir engineers, petro physicists).
OBJECTIVES:
By the end of the course, delegates will:
- Be able to list sedimentological characteristics of clastic rocks;
- Be able to define typical clastic reservoir geometries;
- Be able to correlate on logs clastic reservoirs, using sequence stratigraphy methodology;
- Be able to relate facies, diagenesis and reservoir properties;
- Be able to relate phenomena observed on outcrops to typical clastic reservoir problems, etc.
SUMMARY:
- Sendimentological characteristics: Facies, depositional processes and products, sedimentary structures, major controls on clastic sedimentation, etc.
- Diagenesis and porosity evolution: Processes and products, diagenetic environments, fracture characterisation
- Sequence stratigraphy: General concepts and definitions, various models in sequence stratigraphy, correlation principles, reservoir heterogeneities, etc.
