Overview
Practical learning for workplace transfer.
This in-depth course develops directly applicable capability in Wireline Logging and Formation Evaluation. It connects Open-Hole Logging Measurements, Data Quality and Corrections, and Lithology, Porosity, and Saturation to the decisions, controls, and activities participants need to perform in their workplace. The five-module curriculum progresses toward Log Interpretation Workshop, using evidence, scenarios, and work products appropriate to the subject.
Prerequisites
Relevant workplace familiarity is recommended; exact technical prerequisites can be adapted to the participant group.
Objectives
- Analyze open-hole logging measurements, including gamma ray, spontaneous potential, caliper, resistivity, density, neutron, and sonic principles.
- Configure or structure data quality and corrections, including borehole size, mud system, invasion, temperature, pressure, and tool standoff.
- Evaluate lithology, porosity, and saturation, including shale volume and lithology crossplots.
- Manage advanced formation evaluation, including nmr pore system and fluid interpretation.
- Apply log interpretation workshop, including quality-control a multi-log dataset.
Target audience
- Professionals responsible for this subject area
- Managers, supervisors, and team leaders
- Analysts, specialists, engineers, or coordinators working with the relevant processes
- Project, implementation, assurance, or improvement team members
- Professionals preparing for broader responsibilities in this field
