Open Hole and LWD Interpretation Principles and Applications

By the end of the course you will feel confident in your understanding of:

• Physical principles of most existing open hole logging tools
• The main applications and limitations of the different tool readings
• The uses of advanced wireline and LWD logging tools in complex lithology interpretation
• How to perform a quantitative formation evaluation on a complex lithology

This course is designed for you, if you are ...
• An engineer in the exploration and/or production department
• A geologist, geophysicist or petrophysicist
• A petroleum, reservoir or drilling engineer
• In general, any oil & gas industry professional involved in wireline and LWD logging data interpretation and validation

This training course will utilise a variety of proven adult learning techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension and retention of the information presented. The sessions will include visual, auditory and kinesthetic elements to cover the three different learning modalities. The daily sessions will be highly interactive and participative. This involves regular discussion of applications as well as hands-on exercises that will be solved manually and/or using Microsoft Excel.

This training course will feature:

• Discussions on tools physical principles and applications
• Tool limitations on different borehole environments
• Tips and examples to identify and understand common logging issues
• Explanation of petrophysical concepts and techniques for advanced formation evaluation using wireline and LWD logs
• Application of interpretation methods in several examples and exercises

We look forward to hearing from you and endeavour to respond to your inquiry as quickly as possible!
