  5. Source rocks (mudstones) and their analysis
  6. Basic sequence-stratigraphic concepts
  7. Clastic (fluvial, eolian, deltaic, shallow marine,
  8. deepwater) and carbonate depositional systems and reservoirs

  • Upscaling well data
  • Spatial analysis and variography
  • Deterministic and stochastic modeling methods
  • Inputs and geological constraints for stochastic simulation
  • Modeling sedimentary deposits / rock types / “facies” (sequential-indicator simulation, object-based modeling, multiple-point geostatistics)
  • Modeling petrophysical properties
  • Case studies
