Surface Geochemical Exploration for
Oil & Gas
Introduction:
The great
majority of oil and gas pools and mature source rocks have recognizable surface
geochemical expression. The O&G industry devotes significant time and
resources in finding and defining traps, but little or none in establishing the
likely presence of hydrocarbon in those traps, especially for older onshore
basins. The methods that will be discussed in this course can reliably predict
70%-80% of subsequent commercial discoveries, and about 90% of the eventual dry
holes.
This course
will cover surface geochemical and non-seismic detection of oil and gas, the
variety of surface and near-surface methods for high-grade basins and plays,
and the pre-drilling prediction of hydrocarbon charge. The candidates will
learn the techniques and methodologies that will help refine the economic
evaluation of reservoirs before investing in to new plays. The course is
illustrated from a wide range of international basins and plays, structural and
stratigraphic case studies, onshore and offshore examples, and also the
application to shale-chalk plays.
