The document outlines a 10-hour introductory course on Petrel software, designed to help PhD and master's students from the UAB geological department model and visualize reservoirs using geological and geophysical data. The course content is divided into five modules covering various functionalities such as data management, fault modeling, and seismic treatment. Enrollment is limited to 9 participants per session, free for department members, with a symbolic fee for external attendees.
Petrel introduction course guide
- 1. Introduction Petrel Course (UAB-2014) This course has been prepared as an introduction of Petrel software (Schlumberger, www.software.slb.com/products/platform/Pages/petrel.aspx), an application which allows the modeling and visualization of reservoirs, since the exploration stage until production, integrating geological and geophysical data, geological modeling (structural and stratigraphic frameworks), well planning, or property modeling ( petrophysical or petrological) among other possibilities. The course will be focused mainly in the understanding and utilization of workflows aimed to build geological models based on superficial data (at the outcrop scale) but also with seismic data. The course contents have been subdivided in 5 modules each one developed through the combination of short explanations and practical exercises. The duration of the course covers more or less 10h divided in three sessions. The starting data will be in the first week of December. This course will be oriented mainly for the PhD and master students ascribed at the Geologic department of the UAB. For logistic reasons the maximum number of places for each torn are 9. The course is free from the Department members but the external interested will have to make a symbolic payment. Those interested send an e-mail to the Doctor Griera (albert.griera@uab.cat). The course will be imparted by Marc Diviu (Msc. Geology and Geophysics of reservoirs).
