Price: 4000 MYR

About this course:

The structural model is considered as the skeleton or the container of the Geomodel. Structural modelling starts with a sound structural framework which represents the relation between the faults dissecting the geological object and the seismic horizons representing the important layers.

In a traditional corner point architecture, the topology of the grid is influenced by the structural framework. Building a water tight structural model becomes mandatory when faults displace reservoir units and create compartments. The challenge faced by the Geomodeller is to render the potentially complex structural grain with limited gridding algorithm. This challenge has inevitably resulted in an increasing amount of manual editing to find the right balance between simplification and structural representation.

The PE12 course explores the tools available and the methodology to build structural model from scratch.

Under its current format, the PE12 course is tailored for a Petrel Geomodelling platform.

Attendees are encouraged to bring along their workstation and Petrel Licenses if they wish to use their own dataset during the course.

What to expect from the course:

- Understand the importance of structural modelling in Geomodelling

- Gain insights on all the data used for structural modelling

- Ability to build a structural framework in Petrel

- Ability to build a structural model in Petrel

- Ability to manually edit Faults - Horizons relationship

- Ability to perform QC on structural model

 

Who should attend:

-  Development Geoscientists / Geomodellers who are performing Geomodelling tasks involving complex and faulted geological objects

 

Prerequisite:

Solid grounding on the Geomodelling workflow, attending GM01 or GM10 courses would be highly favorable
