Duration

Two days.

Description

This course is intended for new and existing Tigress users who are involved in geological and petrophysical interpretation.

Trainees will be taught data preparation techniques, both to validate and edit imported data prior to interpretation. We will show you how to set up zonal well correlations (picks, zone tops), and use them to calculate zone thicknesses and store petrophysical parameters generated in crossplots, histograms and other interpretation routines. You will then use these parameters as input to CPI generation, the results of which are zonally averaged for input to mapping.

Applications

The following applications are covered in the course:

  • Trace Edit
  • Core Depth Matching
  • Log Depth Matching
  • Corrections
  • Zonation Dictionary
  • Well Correlation and Zonation
  • Isochore/Isopach
  • Crossplot
  • Histogram
  • RFT Analysis
  • Parameter Table
  • Petrophysics Interpretation
  • Zonal Averaging
  • Log Plot
  • Audit Trail

Prerequisites

Attendance of the Tigress Fundamentals course. Familiarity with Unix/Linux workstations and windowed environments is an advantage.

Format

Demonstrations, lectures and user exercises.

Objectives

On completion of the course, trainees will be able to:

  • use the relevant data loading applications to view and edit imported data numerically
  • perform standard log data editing and preparation techniques
  • create single well zonations and multiwell correlations
  • generate isochore and isopach zonal thicknesses
  • perform routine petrophysical log core analysis
  • produce zonal average values
  • track data edits
  • produce final composite plots.
