Basic Petroleum Geology Operations

Introduction:

This course will provide the candidates with the fundamentals and language of petroleum geology, exploration, drilling and production. This understanding will enable you to communicate more efficiently and perform your job more effectively. The course introduces the tools and techniques that geologists and geophysicists use to locate gas and oil, that drillers use to drill the wells and that petroleum engineers use to test and complete the wells and produce the gas and oil. Illustrations throughout the course provide practical experience in well log correlation, contouring, interpretation of surface and subsurface, contoured maps, seismic interpretation, well log interpretation, and decline curve analysis. You will learn how to identify the most common rocks and minerals.

This course is for anyone who could benefit by an overall perspective of petroleum geology, exploration, drilling and production to be more productive in their job. It is a non-technical course, anyone can take this course. Primary objectives of the course are to broaden your geological vocabulary, explain selected geological principles and processes, and describe how certain petroleum reservoirs and source rocks are formed.

Course Objectives:

By the end of this course delegates will be able to:

  • Identify the most common rocks and minerals
  • Learn the different types of crude oils and natural gasses and their measurements
  • About plate tectonics and petroleum
  • Know about geological time and history
  • Identify the basic processes in the formation and deformation of sedimentary rocks
  • Learn the formation of natural gas and crude oil
  • Know the occurrence and distribution of crude oil and natural gas
  • Understand the essentials of various depositional environments
