Integrated Geosteering and Borehole Image

Course details

• This course will introduce a solid and in-depth understanding of the different WL and MWD-LWD logging tools and technology with, special emphasis on geosteering operations and related borehole imaging applications.
• Participants will understand geosteering process using basic and advanced real-time drilling & logging technologies.
• During this course the participant will got familiar of the different geosteering procedures: well planning, prejob modelling, real time decisions and post job reporting.
• In this course our audience will navigate through different aspects of borehole image evaluation , formation dip identification, real-time utilization, cutting up, cutting down, reservoir entry-exit identification, fractures, insitu-stresses and fault analysis.

• To get a solid background about different logging operations and utilizations.
• To get familiar of different WL and LWD imaging tools
• To understand what is geosteering and why we do directional drilling.
• To be familiar of Prejob, Real-time and Post job procedures.
• Understand Geosteering operations and real-time communications.
• To get familiar of borehole evaluation while drilling.
• Geological changes while drilling (TVD, TVT, dip, structures, fractures and facies).
• To be familiar of azimuthal and non-azimuthal logs applications.
• To know the main logging packages for essential geosteering operations.
• To understand insitu-stresses (washout, breakout and induced fractures).
• To get familiar of the main petrophysical aspects for reservoir evaluation while drilling.
