These exclusive programmes are delivered by a team of industry experts who will deliver in house and on the job. The courses combine challenging exercises,
competency management and follow up live coaching to create a unique and highly valuable solution to technical excellence.
Integrated Explorations Management - Basin to Prospect
Building exploration skills by creating a ranked prospect portfolio
Step 1: Geology: plate tectonics, basin formation, well correlation, sedimentology, sequence strat.
Step 2: Geophysics: acquisition & processing of seismic data; non seismic methods (gravity, magnetics).
Step 3: Regional seismic mapping: create horizon and isopach maps of main sedimentary
sequences. Lead identification. Structural style assessment.
Step 4: Facies & thickness maps of key units (source rock, reservoirs, seals).
Step 5: Detailed 2D seismic mapping. Synthetics, match wells to seismic.
Step 6: Petroleum systems analysis: geochemistry & modelling of charge.
Step 7: Basin development and prospectively review.
Step 8: Prospect mapping (based on detailed 2D and/or 3D seismic).
Step 9: Volumetric with risk & uncertainty (MSV & POS for each prospect)
Step 10: Prospect economics, ranking and well proposal writing.
6 week program which also helps to create multidisciplinary understanding between EP disciplines
Integrated Field Development Planning
Create a Field Development Plan for a field, going through the entire FDP workflow – subsurface and surface
Step 1: Well correlation (~6 wells), sedimentology, sequence stratigraphy
Step 2: Seismic: create top reservoir map from 3D data set. Match wells to seismic.
Step 3: Create static reservoir model. Reservoir architecture, Net/Gross map.
Step 4: Populate reservoir with physical properties: porosity, permeability. Petrophysics.
Step 5: Volumetrics with uncertainty ranges
Step 6: Up-scaling of static model to allow dynamic modeling.
Step 7: Create dynamic model. Calibration with RFT data.
Step 8: Field development scenario building (nr. of producers & injectors).
Step 9: Wells & Facilities (Well/completing design, treatment plant & pipeline sizing).
Step 10: FDP scenarios, economics, reporting.
4 -6 week program using Petrel, Eclipse and Excel
