Reservoir Characterisation & Modelling Workshop (GEO14)
9-13 November 2020 5 days Vienna, AustriaCourse Fee: 3490 EUR + VAT
Computer Fee: 250 EUR + VAT
Description
This course is a practical about the design and construction of static reservoir models. It translates theoretical background into practical model construction using commercial modelling software.
Constructing a reservoir model includes the difficult task to integrate data from very different sources like seismic, well, core and wireline information as well as sedimentological concepts and facies interpretations. This course will show how modern reservoir modelling practice handles such different viewpoints from geoscience and engineering.
Throughout the course a reservoir will be characterised in terms of structure, sedimentology and related petrophysical properties and develops these into static reservoir models. Geostatistics and data integration across the key disciplines will set the baseline.
This training will focus on state-of-the-art concepts, practical fundamentals and common pitfalls when using applications in integrated computer-based modelling. It aims to provide a complete picture in reservoir modelling which starts already at the grid design. The bulk of the course will be used to convey detailed univariate and multivariate statistics, geostatistics and their applications. The modelling part will include variogram based and non-variogram based deterministic and stochastic techniques and show how to apply these for populating facies and properties like porosity, permeability or saturation.
During this workshop participants will construct a static geomodel, which is ready to be initialised as simulation model.
Course Duration: 5 days
Course Level: Skill

Designed for you, if you are...
- A geologist, geophysicist or petroleum engineer seeking to gain an understanding and practical knowledge in reservoir characterisation, geostatistics and modelling
How we build your confidence
- Emphasis will be on practical examples in order to improve personal skills in reservoir modelling
- At the same time, theory in statistics, geostatistics, interpolation and simulation techniques will be communicated to provide a firm knowledge base
- The course is designed in a way that each main topic will consist of a theory section followed by computer exercises for application of the learned and opportunities for in-depth discussions
The benefits from attending

- Showing the methods and benefits of integrating geological, geophysical, petrophysical and engineering data into static reservoir models
- Introducing state of the art deterministic and stochastic modelling techniques, demonstrating their application and outcomes
- Gaining skills on making realistic assumptions of reservoir parameters and the associated spread of model uncertainties
- Discussing the full workflow from data input and analysis through modelling and upscaling results into a model ready for flow simulation
