07 – 11 July 2025Abu Dhabi24 – 28 Nov. 2025Dubai08 – 12 Dec. 2025Abu Dhabi

The course provides to recognize the concept of Goals of Development of Balanced Sections ,

Fundamentals  ,parallel Folding  ,practical Techniques and Assumptions The course provides to recognize the concept of Sedimentary facies analysis eventually leads to sequence stratigraphy, which is the study of rock relationships within a chronostratigraphic framework of repetitive, genetically related strata bounded by surfaces of erosion or nondeposition, or their correlative conformitiesAfter attending the course, participants will be able to:
3-D Geometry 
Stratigraphic separation diagrams
