Overview
Online Pore Pressure Training aims to enhance understanding of pore pressure mechanisms for accurate predictions and evaluations. The course is designed for operational geoscientists, geologists, and geophysicists with well operation responsibilities. Through 3 modules over 3 days, participants will learn to identify mechanisms, apply calculation algorithms, and manage uncertainties in the process. Topics include pore pressure mechanisms, quantitative analysis methods, and prediction processes. By the end, attendees will gain confidence in pore pressure predictions and evaluations.
Who should attend
Geoscientists, Geologists, Geophysicists
Course Content
Description
Pore pressure prediction and evaluation processes rely on algorithms which can be influenced by pore pressure generation mechanisms. Using algorithms without knowing what the mechanism is, can result in calculated pore pressures being too high or too low, resulting in NPT or serious well control issues.
This course will show you how understanding the pore pressure mechanism can result in higher confidence in pore pressure predictions and evaluation.
