the entire Petrel G&G workflow to:
Quickly get your E&P project started and completed
Mentor or support the E&P staff that uses Petrel
Course Agenda:
Week 1 - (2 Days) Basics, (2 Days) Seismic Interpretation
and (1 Day) Petrel Workflows - This introductory week
is appropriate for the person who has never touched Petrel,
has only worked in Petrel a few days, or has used Petrel
a little but not in the last 6 months. It provides a solid
background for all Petrel users, from those who only plan
to load and QC data to those who will perform seismic interpretation
and build simple models. All users of Petrel need to import,
export, and QC data, build and use grids and polygons, and
generate simple work displays. The final day of this week
is Petrel Workflows where the user will learn to automate
tasks for documentation, realizations, automation, updates,
and sensitivities.
Week 2 - (5 Days) Intermediate - This week is for
those Petrel users who are comfortable importing and manipulating
data in the Input tab of Petrel (points, lines, grids, well
tops and logs) and wish to process petrophysical data on
a by-zone basis. It teaches Petrel techniques for calculating
zone average petrophysical values and gridding those data.
It also teaches the quick method for inserting horizons
(unfaulted) and zone average petrophysical grids into a
3D Grid. Once in a 3D Grid, Petrel's automated volumetric
tool is used to calculate volumes on a by-zone by-polygon
basis. This module essentially teaches the volumetric workflow
used in Z-MAP Plus or CPS-3 but does it within the Petrel
environment.
Week 3 - (2 Days) Advanced Structural Framework and
(3 Days) Property Modeling - This module is for Petrel
users who build 2D structure and isochore grids and need
to link those grids together in a three-dimensional stratigraphic
framework. The structures are assumed to be faulted and
the faults are built into the framework. The module covers
fault modeling, designing the X-Y dimensions of the cells,
inserting primary horizons, tuning fault displacements,
inserting sub-seismic horizons, and defining the vertical
cell layering within each zone. These framework building
techniques are required for zone average petrophysical mapping
and geocellular modeling in a faulted geologic environment.
This week also covers the following topics: Well Log Upscaling,
Facies Data Analysis, Facies Modeling, Property Calculator,
Operations and Filter, Petrophysical Data Analysis, and
Petrophysical Modeling. The student learns to use each of
these tools and at the end reinforces this knowledge with
a half day property modeling project.
