Reservoir Characterization: The course provides improved linkage between the techniques used at various scales to describe and model petroleum reservoirs. The ultimate objectives are to enable technical staff to maximize the recovery of Hydrocarbons. The impact of petrophysical heterogeneity at various scales on the recovery of oil and gas provides the focus for the course. Generate permeability-porosity relations unique to their reservoir; Calculate horizontal permeability from measured vertical permeability data; Use MDT testing to determine vertical permeability; Identify and characterize flow units in sandstone formations; Determine fracture porosity and permeability; Calculate Porosity partitioning coefficient of a naturally fractured reservoir; Calculate storage capacity and inter-porosity flow factor. Determine Net-Pay, Permeability and Porosity Cut-off. Use Dykstra-Parsons and Lorenz parameters to quantify impact of internal reservoir architecture in controlling sweep efficiency and oil recovery factors. Evaluate potential of unconventional reservoirs, tight gas sands, shale-gas reservoirs.
