Basics of geological modelling
General information
Working language:
Russian
The training duration:
32 hours
The target audience:
Specialists in the sphere of oil and gas field development and operation, reservoir production improvement, who don’t have special education in Geology.
Venue:
The office of SIAM MASTER Ltd: 10 a Oktyabrskaya street, Tomsk 634003. The minimum number of trainees for the training is 6.
Methodology
- training is conducted in the form of online training which implies audiovisual delivery (presentation) and active involvement of trainees;
- discussion of problems and questions;
Expectations
- getting modern geological ideas about Earth structure and its main processes occurring on the surface and subsurface;
- introducing to the methodology of 3-D geological modelling, studying features of continuous geological models;
- studying the basis of reported mapping of different data, maps quality control and compliance with approved requirements;
