The course will focus on the main Petrophysical concepts and techniques, along with their subsequent applications in IP and to get you familiar with the IP software and its main skills.  It will be taught theoretically and practically on software along with hands-on exercises and tutorials. A variety of data will be used for analyses using the software through a workflow allowing the trainees to complete a deterministic Petrophysical analysis. The comprehensive course documentation has been designed as a useful guide for future reference.

By the end of this course, delegates will be able to:

• • Be familiar with the IP’s user interface and data structure
  • Be familiar with shortcuts, alternative approaches and hidden features
  • Be proficient with how to get data in/out of IP
  • Be able to present data graphically as logs and as X-Y plots
  • Be able to edit tools work
  • Be able to perform porosity, water saturation and shale volume calculations
  • Be familiar with the deterministic interpretation modules and approaches work
  • Be able to perform a deterministic Petrophysical interpretation
  • Be able to report the parameters and results
  • Be able to correlate and understand the multi-well sketches and batching tools
  •  

This course is designed for all Geologists, Operations Geologists, Geo-Modelers, Reservoir Engineers, Core Analysts, Geophysicists and Reservoir Engineers who wish to use IP software. While aimed at beginners, the course will also benefit those who have some experience of IP to broaden their practical knowledge of the software
