 27 October 2011
3-4:30 pm CDT


Attend from the convenience of your own computer. Marfurt VCSHAL1011 image
After this class you will be able to:
  • Choose appropriate attributes to delineate folds, flexures, and faults associated with natural fractures created in the geologic past
  • Justify the acquisition of wide azimuth seismic surveys to estimate the present-day horizontal stress regime
  • Design a workflow using prestack seismic inversion to delineate rock types
  • Use microseismic data and image logs to calibrate predictions made from surface seismic
Attend this class from the convenience of your home or work computer. Listen to the instructor, view the presentation slides, and discuss in real time. All you need is a computer with internet connection and audio.
Instructor: Kurt Marfurt
Pricing: $40 Members, $50 Nonmembers (USD)

Short Course: Integrated Basin Analysis, 22-23 October 2011, Milan

Short Course: Integrated Basin Analysis, 22-23 October 2011, Milan


Course Name: Integrated Basin Analysis
Course Leader: Bob Stewart, Geoscience Recruiting Supervisor, ExxonMobil
Date and Location: 22-23 October 2011, Milan
Venue Name:  Milano Convention Centre, Milan
Times: 22nd October 9-5 / 23rd October 9-3.30
Fee: Free for Students





Course Description:
This AAPG two day course held at the International Convention and Exhibition (ICE) will explore concepts, methods, and tools of petroleum geoscience used on a day-to-day basis in the energy industry. We focus on how to evaluate basins and plays for hydrocarbon prospectively, how to make decisions with limited information, evaluate risk versus uncertainty, and maximize value from integrated teams.

  • Day 1 reviews fundamental concepts of genetic basin analysis and the hydrocarbon play elements. These concepts are applied through an exercise that focuses on which basins are favourable to explore.
  • Day 2 is an applied problem in basin exploration. Students will make play elements maps and composite play summary maps, evaluate play risks, bid on prospective acreage, and audit the hydrocarbon occurrence against their maps and interpretations.
Throughout the course, we will stress integration across disciplines and scales, focusing on interaction and expression of basin formation, fill, and evolution processes from regional to prospect scale. The course is intended to give students an understanding of an approach to and the type of work they would need to do to if they participate in the AAPG IBA (Imperial Barrel Awards) competition.
