Course Description:
An introduction to the concepts and methods of geological reservoir characterization and 3-D reservoir modeling. Data integration to evaluate, map, model, and interpret subsurface geological characteristics and formation property heterogeneity. Methods can be applied to subsurface reservoirs and aquifers related to energy (oil, gas, geothermal, hydrogen), water, and CO 2 storage.

COURSE CONTENT
  • Introduction to subsurface data analysis, modeling, and interpretation
  • Sedimentology, stratigraphy, subsurface properties, flow units
  • Subsurface data and their uses (e.g., core, well logs, 3D seismic, outcrops)
  • Log-based rock types, well- and seismic-based correlations, basic geostatistics, and subsurface mapping
  • Subsurface modeling concepts and methods: Stratigraphic and structural framework (3-D grid), well-log upscaling
  • Facies modeling (sequential-indicator simulation, object-based, multiple-point)
  • Petrophysical modeling (e.g., sequential-Gaussian simulation with co-located co-kriging, cloud transform)
  • Static connectivity; rock, pore, and fluid volumes
  • Case studies

Instructor Bio: 
Matthew J. Pranter is the Victor E. Monnett Endowed Chair in Energy Resources and Professor of Geosciences at the University of Oklahoma. He is also an affiliate faculty in the Mewbourne School of Petroleum and Geological Engineering. He was previously a geology professor at the University of Colorado Boulder and a senior research geologist with ExxonMobil Upstream Research Company and Conoco. He received a B.S. in geology from Oklahoma State University, B.S. in geological engineering from Colorado School of Mines, M.S. in geology from Baylor University, and Ph.D. in geology from the Colorado School of Mines. His research interests include petroleum geosciences, energy resources, reservoir characterization and modeling, and sedimentary geology. He has been an active member of AAPG since 1986, is a member of the AAPG Executive Committee, and serves as AAPG Editor.
