Quantitative Reservoir Characterization
Jaap Mondt
40 hrs (Blended learning)
Business context
The course explains, using "Blended Learning", the latest
methods of characterizing reservoirs using pre-stack seismic data.
Power-point presentations and videos will introduce various aspects
of reservoir characterization, but the emphasis is on
computer-based exercises.

Who should attend
All those involved in designing the necessary acquisition
(multi-azimuth, long offsets) and amplitude-preserving processing
and, of course those doing the quantitative interpretation of
reservoirs.
Pre-requisites: A solid understanding of Geophysics and a good
foundation in Geology. A pre-requirement quiz can be taken to check
whether your knowledge of Geology and Geophysics is sufficient to
follow the course.
Course content
The lectures and exercises deal with the concepts and basic
ideas behind Quantitative Reservoir Characterization. These include
use of effective media, anisotropy due to fine layering and due to
micro-cracks and fractures. For example, for determining fracture
orientation and density, use is made of AVA and AVAz.
Learning, methods and tools
At the end of the course participants will have a clear idea
what is involved in modern reservoir characterization. This will be
evident from the examples shown and the exercises. The Blended
Learning course is based on a user-friendly courses management
system called Moodle. Moodle provides options for discussion,
submission of exercise solutions and extensive feedback and
interaction.
