Sedimentology & Depositional Environments of Deepwater Deposits

Description

This 5-day course covers the theory and application of sedimentology and depositional environments of deepwater deposits. The course comprises an extensive series of topic-related modules, with provision to include workshops on the participants’ datasets. The course can be concluded with a multiple-choice test.

A good understanding of how depositional processes control the distribution of deepwater reservoir and non-reservoir rocks in the subsurface is of fundamental importance to sound E&P decision making. This applies throughout a field’s lifecycle, all the way from the exploration phase, through appraisal, field development and finally, field abandonment.

TARGET AUDIENCE

The course is intended for geoscientists, petrophyiscists, reservoir engineers and geophysicists who need to fully understand the origins of deepwater sedimentary systems.

COURSE LEVEL

TRAINER

Your Expert Course Instructor was awarded his Ph.D. in sedimentary geology by Leiden University in 1971. He worked as a field geologist on sedimentary basin studies in Australia till 1978. After joining Shell in 1978, he held operational assignments as reservoir geologist / production geologist / petroleum engineering team leader with Brunei Shell Petroleum, Shell Expro and the NAM (NAM is Shell’s Dutch operating company).

Whilst based in Shell’s headquarters in The Hague, he worked on a wide range of reservoir characterisation and modelling projects covering both clastic and carbonate reservoirs in many parts of the world (North Sea, South America, Africa, Middle East, Far East, Australasia).

Following a 5-year stint as senior lecturer in Geosciences at Shell’s EP training department, he was senior technical advisor / team leader for static reservoir modelling technology. In this capacity, he also carried out numerous QC reviews on the subsurface aspects (including reserves estimates) of field development plans and A & D opportunities. After retiring from Shell in 2003, he started his own consultancy in parallel with working part-time for a service company that specializes in core evaluations.
