Geologists, Geophysicists, Reservoir Engineers, Geo-modelers
This short training course is based on years of experience stemming from R&D studies in the fields of sedimentology, stratigraphy, structural geology, geochemistry, and petroleum systems in the East-Mediterranean basins. The acquired knowledge and the proposed workflow that has been tested particularly on the Levant basin, can be applied and tailor-designed to suit other underexplored basins.
The objective of the course is to present an integrated workflow for modeling sedimentary basins including source to sink stratigraphic forward simulations, thermal and burial evolutions, and uncertainty analyses. Numerical modeling is based on robust field investigations, well data analyses, and interpretation of geophysical data. Through this workflow reasonable multi-scenario simulations and probabilistic information are produced, leading to sound decisions for less risky hydrocarbon exploration. The course will detail the various steps that were achieved for constructing and applying the integrated workflow on a real exploration frontier province.
The delivering method of this course is centered on inter-active group activities with a minimum amount of lecturing (particularly for presenting the objectives, settings, and some data). It consists of an efficient walk through the workflow (geodynamic framework, regional stratigraphic correlations, key seismic section interpretations, seismo-stratigraphy, forward stratigraphic modeling – including source rocks modelling, thermal/burial modeling – including both thermogenic and biogenic (gas) petroleum systems, and uncertainty analyses (via machine learning and geostatistics). Participants will get involved in the data interpretation and geo-models through group activities.
The key course outcomes will be:
