This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Petrel Geological Process Modeling. It covers the capabilities of Petrel software; the user interface and basic navigation and creating a new project and importing data; the well data and log interpretation, importing and interpreting well data, creating synthetic well logs and correlating well data to build a stratigraphic framework; and importing and interpreting seismic data, creating seismic horizons and faults and building a 3D geological model from seismic data. 

 

Further, the course will also discuss the structural modeling, creating fault models, building a 3D structural model and analyzing the structural model for potential drilling targets; the reservoir modeling, reservoir properties and their impact on production; building a reservoir model from well and seismic data; performing petrophysical analysis to estimate reservoir properties; the geological process modeling in Petrel; and the impact of geological processes on reservoir behavior. 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the simulations on the geological process model, analyzing simulation results and creating production forecasts and economic analysis; the history matching on the geological process model and uncertainty and sensitivity analysis; the enhanced oil recovery techniques; modeling and simulating enhanced oil recovery methods in Petrel; analyzing the impact of enhanced oil recovery on reservoir performance; the optimization and field development planning; creating optimization scenarios in Petrel; and building a comprehensive field development plan using Petrel’s optimization tools.
