Third EAGE WIPIC Workshop: Reservoir Management in Carbonates

18-20 November 2019 |  Doha, Qatar

Workshop Course

Integrated Geological Models for Assessing Uncertainties in Production Data

18 November 2019

Delivered by Dr. Dominique Guérillot

Course description

The aim of the course is to recap main techniques required to build an integrated reservoir model and to explain different potential workflows for field development and/or history matching processes. This course will include explanations of upscaling techniques and the use of proxies for uncertainty assessment of production forecasts.

Participants' profile 

The course is highly beneficial for early to middle career subsurface professionals: reservoir geologists, reservoir engineers, petroleum engineers, petrophysicists and managers.

Registration details

Attendance to this course is included in the workshop registration fee.
