GEOPRESSURE: Prediction, Analysis
and Risk Assessments for E & P ( 5 days) PDF
You
will be calculating the predicted pore pressure based on the prediction
algorithm, in addition to, geo-scientific foundations rather than
relying on software design. You will analyze and assess
your risk as an explorationist and drilling engineer. In addition
to mastering your calculations, you will be able to weigh
your exploration input data (modeling, AVO, fault seal, etc.) against
the post drilling geopressure profile output. Moreover,
the course sheds light on how to appraise and assess the undrilled
segments on your prospect.
Applied Geopressure and Risk Assessments: From Play, prospect to the Well head (3 days) PDF
Sealing integrity
and hydrocarbon retention capacity of a prospective structural closure
are the consequence of the subsurface geopressure vertical and lateral
partitions. Successful drilling to the targeted formation relies
on accurate prediction of pore–fracture pressure within the drilling
tolerance window and the safety limitations.
Deep Water Geopressure: Prospect
and Drilling Risk Assessmets (3 days) PDF
This is the most
comprehensive course in predicting and appraising DW subsurface geopressure
and, consequently, evaluating prospect's risk pre- and post drilling
especially in salt basins. Among the subjects : How to avoid
the next oil spill ?
Seals, Reservoirs and Faults : Trapping
and Reserve Evaluations (3 days) PDF
The optimum
trap is a reservoir capable of confining and economically delivering
hydrocarbons under a competent sealed cap and /or faulted structural
closure. Sealing capacity impacts reservoir flow rate, driving mechanism
and natural-secondary recovery. Hands-on experience will be provided
by several class projects in analog and digital formats.
Pore
Pressure Prediction and Schools of Thought : Fundamentals and Pitfalls
(1 day) PDF
This introductory course covers the
basics of subsurface pressure and explores the essentials of geopressure
transgression and regression in relation to compartmentalization.
It discusses the different methods and their viability.
