About this Micro Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT)

Carbonate reservoirs are very different from clastic reservoirs and are mineralogically unstable. Post depositional alteration is common and it greatly influences petrophysical character. This Micro VILT is designed to refresh the participants' skills in recognizing and understanding the diagenetic and petrophysical characteristics of carbonate reservoirs. The Micro VILT will examine post-depositional changes, the creation and destruction of porosity, including natural fractures and effects on petrophysical character, especially wettability, capillary pressure and saturation. Examples from across the world will be used during the training, but particular reference will be made to reservoir formations in the Arabian Gulf.   Micro VILT Group Pricing: SGD$1,200 per person / USD$ 889 per person (Minimum 5 persons per group session) For more details on pricing for larger groups or customisation of course outline, call us at +65 6741 9927 or email [email protected]   Delivery of this Micro VILT: The Micro VILT will be delivered through Zoom, MS Teams or equivalent video conference platforms in combination with other online interactive training tools.   Micro VILT Duration: The Micro VILT will be delivered online in 1 session comprising 4 hours, with 2 breaks.
