Upon completing this course, the participant should be able to use log analysis to identify reservoir rock properties (fluid saturation, porosity, fluid contacts, permeabilities, bulk shale content, net oil sand, fractures).

Upon completing this Learning Module assignment, the participant should be able to select the appropriate logging tool(s) for evaluating a given reservoir parameter, taking into account operating conditions and limitations, and specify procedures, surface equipment, and auxiliary tools to be employed on a logging job.

Upon completing this Learning Module assignment, the participant should be able to access PDVSA engineering and geoscience databases and identify information that is relevant to the field under study as well as classify information according to discipline and what reservoir parameters it helps to define.

Use electromagnetic, radioactive, acoustic and other logs to infer stratigraphic and structural characteristics of subsurface formations.

Explains commonly used standard and quick-look log analysis techniques.

This Topic describes the operating principles, applications and limitations of acoustic and resistivity imaging tools, and illustrates how you can use borehole imaging as a reservoir monitoring and characterization tool.​

This topic, Dipmeter Surveys, discusses dipmeter logging tools, data acquisition, data processing, display and interpretation of computed dipmeter data, as well as applications for unconventional resource reservoirs.​

Presents the commonly used logging tools--SP, gamma ray, resistivity and porosity--and their characteristics and functions including coverage of Magnetic Resonance Logging.

The features and functions of common LWD and wireline logging tools are summarized. LWD and wireline logging operations are compared, facilitating logging program design. Well log quality control techniques are discussed.
