Short lectures with many exercises
on the computer
Overview:
This course teaches students to import
data, build structural frameworks, calculate zone average petrophysical properties, grid those properties, and
calculate volumes using as input the framework and gridded properties. Focus is on 2D mapping techniques similar
to those used in Z-MAP Plus and CPS-3 and this course is an excellent way to transition from those programs into
Petrel. Two case studies are used to reinforce the techniques learned and to allow students to hit the ground
running when they return to the office.
Who should attend:
Anyone who needs to use Petrel for:
Structure Mapping
Simple Petrophysical Modeling
Volume Calculation
What will they Learn:
PROBLEM
SOLUTION
Unfamiliarity with Petrel
Become comfortable with Petrel's
file structure and interface
Unsure what Petrel can
do in the Mapping area
Learn how to plan a
project
Do not know how to work
in Petrel
Learn how to work a project
from importing tops and interpretations through to volume calculations
Processes:
The Mapping Workflow is separated into six parts:
Introduction to the Petrel Interface and basic mapping processes including file manipulation
and volumetrics
Half-day un-faulted Mapping Workflow exercise
Techniques used to build and depth-convert faulted frameworks
Introduction to display tools and hardcopy generation
Half-day faulted Mapping Workflow exercise
Introduction to Process Manager
When given specifically for one company, an additional week
can be included where students bring their own project data.
This week reinforces project planning and the Mapping Workflow
steps required to complete a real-world project in Petrel.
Using student data allows productive work to be performed
while in class.
