Presented by
Dr. Matthew J. Pranter
Professor & Lew and Myra Ward Chair in Reservior Characterization The University of Oklahoma ConocoPhillips School of Geology and Geophysics
Course Content
- Introduction to reservoir characterization
- Sedimentary and reservoir-rock properties
- Reservoir heterogeneity and flow units
- Well logs and pay determination
- Source rocks (mudstones) and their analysis
- Basic sequence-stratigraphic concepts
- Clastic (fluvial, eolian, deltaic, shallow marine,
- deepwater) and carbonate depositional systems and reservoirs
- Structural characteristics of reservoirs
- Reservoir modeling concepts and methods:
- Stratigraphic / structural framework
- Upscaling well data

- Modeling sedimentary deposits / rock types / “facies” (sequential-indicator simulation, object-based modeling, multiple-point geostatistics)
- Modeling petrophysical properties
- Case studies
