Sedimentology & Depositional Environments of Deepwater Deposits

By the end of this 5-day course, the participants will learn the following: For geoscientists to acquire a sound understanding of:

• The processes that transport sediment (both clastics and carbonates) from the shelf region to the deep sea
• A sound understanding of the spatial patterns in sediment characteristics in 2-D & 3-D of the resulting deposits
• How these spatial variations translate into different reservoir characteristics and the implications for e.g., petrophysical characteristics and/or fluid flow behaviour
• The role and significance of sea level change as a control on the formation of deepwater depositional systems (both clastics & carbonates)
• The distinction between ‘deepwater’ reservoirs in a geological sense and ‘deepwater’ in a field development sense.

For non-geoscientists (e.g., petrophyiscists / reservoir engineers / geophysicists) to acquire a sound understanding of:

• How sedimentology & stratigraphy of deepwater deposits is key to a proper evaluation of the prospectivity of deepwater acreage
• How sedimentology & stratigraphy of deepwater deposits is key to fit-for-purpose development decision-making for a deepwater discovery
• How to ask relevant questions about deepwater reservoirs to the geoscientists

The course is intended for geoscientists, petrophyiscists, reservoir engineers and geophysicists who need to fully understand the origins of deepwater sedimentary systems.
