Capability and Competency Development for the Energy Sector

This virtual course, run over 8 sessions, provides a comprehensive overview of necessary concepts for seismic interpretation in carbonate systems for successful exploration and production. The newest concepts in depositional and microbial processes in shallow and deep water carbonate environments, rock physics, and sequence stratigraphy are presented through a combination of lectures, case studies and exercises.

A 5-day field course using the Monterey Formation as a natural laboratory to understand the origin, distribution and physical properties of biogenic, organic-rich mudstones as well as the relationship between mechanical stratigraphy and fracture distribution in layered rocks.

Participants on this 5-day classroom course will derive an understanding of wells and completions, allowing for more accurate production performance assessments, as well as better risk mitigation and management.

This virtual course, run over 5 sessions, details the main financial concepts and economic evaluation techniques and related financial concepts that are used in the oil and gas upstream business to assist decision making. 

This 4 day classroom course addresses the application and integration of data analytics to subsurface geomodeling for unconventional resources, including oil, gas, and geothermal.

A 5-day field workshop providing geoscientists and engineers with a thorough and practical exposure to the range of topics required to understand, characterize and predict the geomechanical response of reservoir rocks to geologic processes, field management, and hydraulic fracturing.
