Petroleum Geosciences > Deepwater Turbidites

About this Training Course 

The course provides an opportunity to examine analogue data from turbidite reservoirs. This course will review the depositional setting, sequences that are associated with clastic deepwater systems, the geological controls on reservoir quality and architecture, and put the environment into context of the petroleum system.

 

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Gain an understanding of deepwater depositional systems, how they form and how they are identified using different data sets
  • Identify reservoir quality and the geological controls
  • Understand the risks and uncertainties in deepwater exploration

This course will benefit:

  • Exploration and production geologists and geophysicists
  • Stratigraphers
  • Reservoir engineers
  • Petrophysicists

Your expert course leader is the Geosciences Technical Director for PetroEdge. She was previously, the manager of Robertson Petroleum Training Centre and a Senior Project Scientist at Robertson CGG. She has over 20 years of experience in teaching geology and leading field trips. Prior to her 8 years at Robertson, she was in academia as a lecturer for 6 years and a Research Fellow for 3 years. She has conducted fieldwork and led field trips in the US and many areas in the UK. In addition, she has led university regional geology day schools and has comprehensive experience in course and study programme writing.

She has extensive experience in delivering courses and in Clastic and Carbonate Reservoir Geology, Deepwater Turbidites, Sandstone Reservoirs, Wireline Log Interpretation, Integrated Sequence Stratigraphy, Basin Analysis and Exploration & Appraisal workshops globally. In delivering the Exploration Team Management Workshop, she has project managed and taught key principles and modules on project planning, data collection/collation, geophysical assessment, stratigraphy and facies mapping, source rock facies and hydrocarbon generation, play fairway mapping, risking and prospect evaluation. Her knowledge and enthusiasm for instructing is reflected in consistently being rated as excellent by trainees, and clients specifically requesting her participation in courses.

To further optimise your learning experience from our courses, we also offer individualized “One to One” coaching support for 2 hours post training. We can help improve your competence in your chosen area of interest, based on your learning needs and available hours. This is a great opportunity to improve your capability and confidence in a particular area of expertise. It will be delivered over a secure video conference call by one of our senior trainers. They will work with you to create a tailor-made coaching program that will help you achieve your goals faster.
