Advanced Geosteering
This course will introduce a solid and in-depth understanding of different MWD-LWD technology and their
main applications on the geosteering process using the advanced real-time
drilling applications.
Attendees will approach the different LWD tools and
their usage on geosteering techniques i.e. model based, start-based, seismic
image, borehole images and the most advanced remote boundary detection tools.
Description
The Advanced Geosteering course equips oil and gas professionals with the skills and knowledge to make precise well-placement decisions in complex geological settings. This program covers key topics such as interpretation of logging-while-drilling (LWD) data, integration of seismic data, and application of real-time geosteering technologies. Participants will learn cutting-edge methods for optimizing reservoir contact, minimizing drilling risks, and maximizing hydrocarbon recovery. With practical case studies and interactive sessions, this course provides a thorough understanding of advanced geosteering techniques essential for today's demanding field operations.
As the oil and gas industry moves toward greater efficiency and precision, advanced geosteering plays a crucial role in achieving accurate well placement and reservoir management. This course offers professionals a robust framework for applying advanced geosteering principles, focusing on interpreting data from LWD, integrating subsurface data, and real-time adjustments in well trajectory. Participants will leave with a comprehensive toolkit for optimizing geosteering practices in diverse geological environments.
- To understand what is geosteering and why we do directional
drilling.
- To be familiar of Prejob, Real-time and Post job procedures.
- To know the proper way of geosteering a well.
