The course aims at giving the participants a powerful insight into the Petrel Workflow editor functionality and how to perform Uncertainty and Sensitivity analyses for exploration and production.
The Workflow editor enables you to automate tasks/processes/operations and build uncertainty loops. In addition to helping optimize time, this approach is widely applied for effective 3D models updates - e.g. while drilling - and for reserves uncertainty quantification.
The first part of this will focus on how to create your own workflows for batch processing and operations, in addition to setting up, editing and repeating processes with new data for a complete reservoir modeling workflow.
The Uncertainty and Optimization process enables you to perform sensitivities studies, risk analysis, proxy models creation, and models optimization.
The second part of this course will focus on understanding the sensitivities and uncertainties associated with reservoir models and volumes. Structural uncertainties related to surfaces and velocities will be explored, as well as stochastic parameters related to Fluid contacts, facies and petrophysical uncertainties.
