URTeC SC-06 | Essentials of Unconventional Play Based Exploration
American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG)
Saturday, 18 July – Sunday, 19 July 2020, 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. | Austin, Texas
Who Should Attend
Geoscientists, petrophysicists, engineers, and managers.
Objectives
Provide a framework and workflows for exploring and appraising low permeability shales, carbonates, and sandstones in frontier basins, as well as new areas in basins that are producing from unconventional reservoirs.
Course Content
This course focuses on the assessment of unconventional plays and the identification of initial well locations within them. The course is centered around a multi-stage exercise in a shale play where participants 1) build maps to spatially quantify in-place volumes, 2) identify target acreage by overlaying maps with components affecting producibility, and 3) estimate play chance, establish value for candidate blocks, and formulate an entry strategy. The intent is to expose participants to all the key concepts and steps in the unconventional play-based assessment process, and then apply these to a real-life competitive bidding situation. Participants will also be shown how software can be used to conduct this work faster and more comprehensively.
