The petroleum industry, from upstream to downstream encompasses some of the World\u2019s largest and most complex infrastructure, commercial and trade networks. But where does it all begin? Where does the oil and gas come from and how are hydrocarbons found?<\/p>\n
This course was developed to provide petroleum industry professionals with a working knowledge of the Geology elements and processes relevant to hydrocarbon Exploration and Production. The main concepts and terms used in Petroleum Geology will be addressed as well as the exploration and production tools, types of data and software and how geoscientists identify and evaluate drill-worthy prospects.<\/p>\n
It is aimed for engineers and petrophysicists without geological background, administrative staff, accountants, law professionals, production technologists, health and safety officers, economists and anyone dealing with geology-related matters or with geoscience professionals. This course consists of classroom presentations, case studies and practical exercises.<\/p>\n
The purpose of this course is to provide participants with a global and practical view of Petroleum Geology. At the end of the course, participants will have acquired knowledge to:
\n\u2022 Understand the geological cycle and the basic concepts of sedimentary geology.
\n\u2022 Recognize the main elements and processes of a petroleum system.
\n\u2022 Understand basin analysis concepts, regional geology and exploration techniques.
\n\u2022 Understand how seismic, well and outcrop data can be used for exploration and production.
\n\u2022 Be able to conceptually define a prospect, calculate volumes and assess risks.
\n\u2022 Assess how Petroleum Geology allows a discovery to be evaluated and developed<\/p>\n
