  • Understand the integration of different data
  • Enhance the interpretation processes
  • Learn how to perform day-to-day tasks within the Techlog Suite
  • Get acquainted with advanced techniques for improving the analysis results

Objectives

    This Techlog Formation Evaluation training aims to enable participants to achieve the following objectives:

    • Provide the insight into the Techlog software
    • Understand the improvements in usability and productivity
    • Prepare for the optimal formation evaluation with the use of Techlog
    • Use the advanced techniques and add-ons to improve analysis results
    • Learn about Techlog modules
    • Prepare and create a Techlog project

Training Methodology

The Techlog Formation Evaluation training course will combine presentations with interactive practical exercises, supported by video materials, activities and case studies. The course will use the most up-to-date presentation and interactive methods of work with the group's modernization, focusing on problem identification in the thematic area, and group work of the participants on finding solutions, or ways to solve the identified problems through the discussion of practical examples and tasks.

Who Should Attend?

Engineers and other personnel involved with the daily operation and management of producing oil and gas wells; production engineers and reservoir engineers involved with well stimulation applications would also benefit from attending this course.
