Workshop Overview

Tight reservoirs have become a very important resource that most oil operators are headed towards, to sustain the supply of hydrocarbons resources; Where there are many unique and specific challenges associated with all exploration and production aspects.

The need to optimize the production capacity and recovery potential from this type of reservoirs have risen. Unconventional resources, including tight reservoirs, constitute some of the largest components of remaining hydrocarbon resources in the Middle East reservoirs.

The fifth edition of EAGE/AAPG Tight Reservoirs Workshop in the region will highlight case studies and new ideas from industry and academia in the Middle East and worldwide where a multitude of topics will be discussed from both the exploration and production side including:

  • Reservoir geology            

  • Petrophysics / rock physics / geomechanics          
  • Reservoir geophysics     
  • Reservoir engineering    
  • Integrated projects         
  • Tight fields economics

The 2019 edition of EAGE/AAPG Tight Reservoirs Workshop aims to promote discussions related to tight reservoirs based on both local and international experiences.

Who Should Attend?

This workshop welcomes attendance of all scientists and engineers interested or involved in exploring and developing tight reservoirs from a diverse range of disciplines.
