Overview This advanced case-study led course is designed to teach participants a process for rapidly screening frontier basin opportunities with minimal data, with case studies from across the world, including many African, Atlantic and South-East Asian Basins. Three day modules cover the essentials of basin classification and tectonostratigraphic analysis, the prediction of petroleum system elements (reservoir, source…

Overview Understand the regional controls underpinning some of the world’s key frontier exploration provinces in the South and Central Atlantic. Save considerable time in your own researches in these regions. Learn how to assess the key factors controlling exploration success and failure in the region and in particular the complications involved in identifying pre-salt and…

Overview In Petroleum Geology, source rocks are important as they are rocks from which oil and gas have been generated or are capable of being generated. This makes them vital in a working petroleum system as subsurface source rock mapping method make it possible to identify likely zones of petroleum occurrences in sedimentary basins and…

Overview All wells drilled require a pre-drill prediction of pore fluid and fracture pressures which defines the “drilling window”. This course explains the objectives, methods and uncertainties of prediction, based on extensive global experience. The necessary understanding of the geological/geophysical context of abnormal pressures leading to standard algorithms will be provided. Part of the challenge…

Overview This advanced case-study led course is designed to teach participants a process for rapidly screening frontier basin opportunities with minimal data, with most case studies from African and Atlantic style rifts and passive margins. Three day modules cover the essentials of basin classification and tectonostratigraphic analysis, the prediction of petroleum system elements (reservoir, source…

Overview This course aims at providing participants with the ‘regional picture’ that controls the complex play systems of the Central and South Atlantic using largely unpublished material gathered from the authors own regional work and attendance at scores of conferences on the region, many organised by himself. By presenting these regional models during the course…

Overview This 3-day course synthesizes the product of a 35-year career studying the Gulf of Mexico, Mexico, Florida-Bahamas Cuba, Central America, the Caribbean, northern South America, and the opening history of the Atlantic basins. It represents a state-of-the-art assessment of what we know and don’t know in terms of basin evolution, and highlights some of…

Overview The aims of this course will be focussed on Tertiary carbonate systems and reservoirs of SE Asia and will provide an updated review on the controls of carbonate sedimentation, global changes through the Tertiary and how these affect reservoir types. The sequence stratigraphy of carbonate, and mixed siliciclastic carbonate systems will be discussed drawing…

Overview This course summarises the main petroleum systems of the Mexican Gulf of Mexico. It is based on Cambridge Carbonates Ltd. 50 man-years experience of working on play evaluation, reservoir description and regional studies of Jurassic, Cretaceous and Tertiary petroleum systems of Mexico. It emphasises the importance of the regional tectonic and palaeogeographical evolution of…

Overview This is a basic course that explains petroleum geology in elementary scientific principles. It provides sufficient knowledge of the subject for engineers, economics, geophysicists and other disciplines to interact effectively with geologists. The course is also suitable for young geologists or managers who require a refresher in the subject Following an introduction to the…

Overview This course will teach you how to evaluate reservoirs and quickly identify flawed results. Robust reserves and simulation are achieved by the logical, systematic integration of all relevant data. A quality interpretation is extremely cost-effective compared with data acquisition or development mistakes and essential with today’s complex reservoirs and data sets. Proper integration replaces the need…
