Mary and I love to go to the movies. Unfortunately, with an 11- and a three-year-old, what we normally see is something produced by Mickey Mouse.
In an earlier column I referred to AAPG’s big audacious goal: YOU MUST BE A MEMBER TO DO YOUR JOB WELL. This year we have been educating members and potential members on the “Membership Pyramid of Existing Programs and Services,” as well as new programs such as GIS-UDRIL (see my April column).
Last month we discussed the importance of accurately describing the geological, geophysical and petrophysical attributes of fractures to optimize fractured reservoir management. Ron Nelson’s 2001, classification of “fracture-dominated” vs. “matrix-dominated” reservoir types helps to recognize the range of porosity and permeability in those producing reservoirs.
AAPG has found it necessary to postpone the Hedberg Conference, originally scheduled next month in Vienna, due to recent world events.
Welcome to the outdoor geological laboratory that surrounds Barcelona!
AAPG's international members, for administrative purposes, are organized on a regional basis, allowing for better communication and representation in association matters.
This month's column is titled 'Electromagnetics Help Lower Drilling Risk.'
I visited a local bookstore looking for an extra 2003 calendar but the selection wasn't great in early February. I finally gave up in my search when I realized my only two choices were a calendar with dogs standing around in men's clothing or a calendar that featured recipes based on astrology.
There seems to be a lot of confusion about the relationship between chance of success for a drilling prospect and various possible outcomes of recoverable reserves. Such confusion could lead to bad E&P business decisions.
Premise: Geological applications of well logs are as broad as geology itself and petroleum geologists can learn from their colleagues in other disciplines.
