The Next Seminar
The London Petrophysical Society announces a one day seminar focused on: "Carbonate Formation Evaluation"
Tuesday 16th September, 2010 at the Geological Society, London
Objective:
Review current approach and thinking towards Carbonate Petrophysics.
Abstract:
More than half the Earth's conventional hydrocarbon resources are found in carbonate reservoirs. These are highly heterogeneous over many length scales and are typically extensively fractured: as a result recovery factors are often low. Essential to improving oil and gas recovery is to understand the fundamental controls on carbonate porosity, permeability and saturation, and develop new techniques for evaluating and predicting these reservoir properties.
