Course Objectives:
The objective of this training course is to get more out of seismic and well data through the use of sequence and seismic stratigraphy and integrated stratigraphic analysis to further constrain geological models. Ultimately, it can be used to predict and discover more geological resources and predict the geology before wells are drilled.
This 25-hour interactive Sequence Stratigraphy training course will deal with the fundamentals and practical applications of sequence and seismic stratigraphy. It will include exercises and case histories for some interpretation and workshop discussion.
During the course and in an organised and systematic manner, we aim to achieve several objectives that are briefly presented:
- Understand the critical use of chronostratigraphy in providing a temporal and spatial display of depositional packages
- Have a full understanding of the factors controlling sedimentary basin fill
- Have an awareness of the terms and definitions used in sequence and seismic stratigraphy
- Identify the main stratal terminations, surfaces, system tracts and sequences on seismic
- Integrate other geological data and then identify sequences and system tracts on well logs
- Identify main trends, surfaces and system tract in outcrops
