Short Course on Geomechanics for Sedimentary Reservoirs

12-15 February 2024

Andrea Moscariello

Dr. Maximilian Haas, SLB, London (UK)

Dr. Assef Mohamad Hussein, SLB, London (UK)

The courses will introduce the basic applications of rock mechanics and fracture analysis for both the oil/gas and new energy industry. The different modules and sessions dive into the theoretical principles needed for the consecutive tasks:

The courses start at 9:15 a.m. every morning and will run until 4:30 - 5:00 p.m.

Day 1: M1: Introduction to 3D geomechanics & natural fracture prediction; M2: Advanced case studies on reservoir geomechanics, natural fracture prediction; M3: Construction of a mechanical earth model (MEM) & basics on the Finite Element Method (FEM) & Session day closure – Q/A.

Day 2: M4: Geostatistics & property modelling; M5: Hands-on construction of a MEM & property modelling & Session day closure – Q/A

Day 3: M6: Geomechanics-driven natural fracture prediction based on geological restoration; M7: Petrel Geomechanics workflow including natural fracture modelling applied to GEOTHERMAL CCS NUCLEAR WASTE DEPOSITS & Session day closure –
