Courses

This course teaches the PetroMod* petroleum systems modeling workflows needed to build more sophisticated models. The course combines lectures on key aspects of petroleum systems modeling with a wide selection of practical software exercises.

This class covers a number of elective components in the PetroMod Education Services offering. Students successfully completing this course will be able to handle the most advanced challenges when building a petroleum systems model.

Please note that the total content available comprises 10 days of training grouped into 7 elective module packages. Each package is further subdivided into smaller modules. Practical experience has shown that the topics of interest vary widely by company and by the types of projects in which participants are engaged.

The available elective modules packages are:

• Model Construction Techniques
• Modeling in Structurally Complicated Geological Environments
• PetroMod Salt Modeling
• Advanced Thermal Calibration
• Fluid Properties and Petroleum Migration
• Special Situations – Gas Hydrates and Biodegradation
• Advanced Simulator Features

The Advanced Topics class usually is customized to suit individual companies or groups of users. You are encouraged to select elective module packages of interest and to build a 5 day class. However, the class is flexible; both elective module packages and individual modules may be selected to form a custom class, which can be delivered in a timeframe lasting anywhere from 3 to 10 days.
