This 5-day Petroleum Systems and Play Analysis course is designed for geoscientists keen to develop skills in play analysis and basin modelling. It reviews global basin types, looking at both successful and unsuccessful exploration campaigns from around the world, their success ratio and the dominant play types. The course then reviews the workflow to assess a new basin, key input data and techniques used to characterise the petroleum systems and plays, and ultimately develop leads and prospects
It is aimed at honing the analytical skills to evaluate petroleum systems and their hydrocarbon potential, and to learn from examining global analogues. It reviews the important control that basin formation and mechanisms have on the petroleum system, examining subsidence, heat flow, structural style, evolution and sedimentation. Global examples of typical basin types are examined with emphasis on the impact that basin style and sedimentation have on the hydrocarbon habitat and prospectivity. Within each basin, depositional systems are reviewed, and the control on reservoir, source, seal and trap are discussed.
During this course:
During the course, lectures and practical exercises are used to teach techniques to evaluate the basin type and interpretation of seismic and well log data. These cover the fundamentals of stratigraphy, seismic facies analysis and an introduction to basin modelling.
This course is most suitable for:
Basic geological knowledge is assumed. Some introductory experience is required, with knowledge of the basics of petroleum geology, and some seismic and well log interpretation experience.
By the end of the course you will feel confident in your understanding of:
The course covers:
