Dates Venues Register
21/12/2025 - 25/12/2025 KUALA LUMPUR

Introduction

Shallow and Deep Marine Sedimentation : Principles and Application

What are the Goals?

By the end of this training course, participants will learn to:

  • Understand different shallow and deep marine facies models and their sedimentary setting
  • Interpret mudlogs, core and thin sections to produce shallow and deep marine facies logs and a facies model
  • Utilize borehole images, log data, ECS and NMR to generate marine electro facies
  • Identify accurate geological analogues, to derive input parameters for geological models
  • Understand upscaling, which honors geological data to create accurate static and dynamic geological modelling

Who is this Training Course for?

This training course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit: 

  • Geologists
  • Petrophysicists
  • Geophysicists
  • Reservoir Engineers
  • Technical Project Managers
  • Exploration Managers
  • Geomodellers
