    Applications of Borehole Imaging to Hydrocarbon Exploration & Production

    Borehole Imaging is an integral part of today's exploration and development of oil and gas reservoirs. This 5 day course explains the principles and applications of borehole imaging with a strong emphasis on practical application to hydrocarbon exploration and production.

    The course covers the operating principles of the borehole imaging tools, dipmeter computation and interpretation, and application to structural geology, fracture characterization, and sedimentary environments. Several of the sessions are practical, with a range of examples and scenarios.

    Geoscientists who wish to understand how to interpret borehole imaging data and use the data to complement other available information.
