Borehole Geophysics
06 – 10 Jan. 2025 | Abu Dhabi | 10 – 14 Nov. 2025 | Dubai | 13 – 17 Oct. 2025 | Abu Dhabi |
Course Objectives:
This course provides an in-depth understanding of borehole geophysical techniques, their applications in subsurface characterization, and how they contribute to reservoir evaluation, formation analysis, and well integrity assessments. By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
- Understand fundamental principles of borehole geophysics.
- Learn about wireline logging and logging-while-drilling (LWD) techniques.
- Interpret resistivity, sonic, nuclear, and imaging logs for formation evaluation.
- Use borehole geophysics to determine lithology, porosity, permeability, and fluid saturation.
- Assess well integrity, casing, and cement bond logs.
- Integrate borehole geophysical data with seismic and reservoir models.
- Follow industry best practices and standards (API, SPE, SEG, NACE).
Target Audience
This course is designed for professionals involved in subsurface characterization, well logging, and reservoir evaluation. The target audience includes:
