How to Approach Carbonate Reservoirs
Unlock the secrets of carbonate reservoirs with our intensive 3-hour course designed for industry professionals. Dive deep into the unique characteristics and complexities of carbonate reservoirs, guided by expert instructors with extensive field experience
Description
This module covers a systematic step-by-step methodology for approaching carbonate reservoirs. We will start with the identification of carbonate platform type in seismic data, discuss reservoir distribution through a virtual tour of modern reefs in Bali and proximal ramp deposits in Kuwait and Abu Dhabi. After covering carbonate platforms we will discuss carbonate factories, cyclicity, and the relationship between mechanical stratigraphy, diagenesis and bioturbation.
This module was initially developed as a carbonate crash course for the engineering department at the Colorado School of Mines three years ago and has now become an annual tradition due to its popularity. You will get to see fantastic examples that have real-world sub-surface applications using data that is not available in the public domain.
