Syllabus: Develop a petrophysical fiels review plan (PPFRP). Petrophysical interpretation workflow for generating input into static and dynamic reservoir models starting from log and core data. Petrophysical log evaluation using Techlog where core data is not yet available. Apply a range of shaly sand and carbonate interpretation models using Techlog. Coring acquisition requirements for routine and special core analysis programs. Understand the Value of Information (VOI) concept, and quantify uncertainty at every stage of the petrophysical analysis. Describe the most common routine and special core analysis techniques, and their associated issues and QC procedures. Carry out saturation - height and permeability modelling. Describe how upscaled evaluation results for inclusion in static and dynamic reservoir models are generated.
