Advanced Wire Line Logging
| 18 – 22 May 2026, Abu Dhabi | 12 – 16 Oct. 2026, Dubai |
COURSE OVERVIEW:
Advanced wireline logging is a critical discipline for accurate reservoir evaluation, formation characterization, well integrity assessment, and completion decision-making. This course provides an in-depth understanding of state-of-the-art wireline logging technologies, including open-hole, cased-hole, production logging, imaging tools, NMR, pulsed neutron logging, spectroscopy, and advanced reservoir evaluation techniques.
Participants will learn to interpret complex log responses, evaluate lithology and fluid types, calibrate logs with core and SCAL data, diagnose well integrity issues, and integrate wireline data into petrophysical models and dynamic reservoir workflows. The course also covers operational planning, tool selection, conveyance systems, real-time QC, and troubleshooting of logging challenges in deviated, horizontal, HPHT, and carbonate reservoirs. Real field examples reinforce practical decision-making and high-accuracy subsurface evaluation.
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
After completion of the course, the participants will be able to:
- Understand advanced principles of open-hole and cased-hole wireline logging.
- Select appropriate logging tools for reservoir, completion, integrity, and production evaluation.
- Interpret complex log responses for lithology, porosity, saturation, and permeability indicators.
- Analyze density, neutron, sonic, and resistivity logs in challenging formations.
- Evaluate carbonate, fractured, and heterogeneous reservoirs using advanced logging methods.
- Use NMR logs to quantify pore-size distribution, permeability, and fluid typing.
- Interpret imaging logs (FMI/UBI) for fractures, bedding, and structural features.
- Apply pulsed neutron and spectroscopy logging for saturation monitoring and fluid identification.
- Perform production logging to identify inflow, crossflow, and well performance issues.
- Validate wireline data quality using QC workflows and environmental corrections.
- Integrate wireline logs with core, SCAL, LWD, seismic, and reservoir models.
- Troubleshoot operational challenges such as tight spots, differential sticking, and tool failures.
- Evaluate well integrity using cement bond logs, casing inspection tools, and corrosion logging.
- Prepare high-quality logging interpretations, reports, and decision-support material.
TARGET AUDIENCE:
- Petrophysicists
- Reservoir Engineers and Geoscientists
- Logging Engineers and Wireline Field Specialists
- Drilling, Completion, and Production Engineers
- Well Integrity Engineers
- RTOC and Subsurface Evaluation Teams
- Professionals seeking advanced competency in wireline logging
TRAINING COURSE METHODOLOGY
A highly interactive combination of lectures, discussion sessions, and case studies will be employed to maximise the transfer of information, knowledge, and experience. The course will be intensive, practical, and highly interactive. The sessions will start by raising the most relevant questions and motivating everybody to find the right answers. The attendants will also be encouraged to raise more of their questions and to share in developing the right answers using their analysis and experience. There will also be some indoor experiential activities to enhance the learning experience. Course material will be provided in PowerPoint, with necessary animations, learning videos, and general discussions.
The course participants shall be evaluated before, during, and at the end of the course.
COURSE CERTIFICATE
National Consultant Centre for Training LLC (NCC) will issue an Attendance Certificate to all participants completing a minimum of 80% of the total attendance time requirement.
