Petroleum Geology for Non Geologists

Introduction:

This course provides the candidates with a technical overview of the science and art of geology including drilling operations, completion practices and post-completion wellbore enhancement or remedial workover techniques (well intervention). It develops an understanding of the what, why, and how of each of these areas of engineering practice. Reservoir engineers will learn what can be done within open-hole and cased wells as they execute reservoir management. Drilling and completion personnel will learn how the producing reservoir can be damaged or stimulated by what they do. The candidates will learn to visualize what is happening "downhole", discover what can be accomplished and gain an appreciation for wellbore risks and the possibility of damage to the formation; and how drilling and completion practices can alter reservoir interpretation and performance. The participant will become conversant with specific technical terminology and aware of practical applications, which should enhance communication and interaction between disciplines.

Course Objectives:

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

  • Gain understanding of the petroleum business process from exploration geology, prospect evaluation, development, and production
  • Learn about the fundamental knowledge on petroleum geology from the formation of oil and gas, characteristics of petroleum systems, and the use of geological data in petroleum exploration
  • Apply the knowledge of petroleum geology for better business decisions in negotiations and appraisal process
  • Integrate geological data information to evaluate the potentiality for new business ventures
  • Understand the technical complexity of exploration before setting up the rules to limit or maximize operations of the technical team in a petroleum project
