 phy, April 10, 2016 \nJohn Holbrook  -  Professor of Geology at Texas Chri

 Who Should Attend\nGeologists, geophysicists, and engineers seeking techni
 ques for improved subsurface mapping and more accurate prediction of litho
 logy/porosity distribution within fluvial reservoir intervals that are dep
 icted in seismic, borehole, and outcrop data sets. Concepts are taught fro

  of fluvial rock. Participants will attain the following skills.\n\nRelate
  surficial fluvial processes to specific rock units.\nEvaluate fluvial pre
 servation in a &ldquo\;river-to-rock&rdquo\; context.\nQuickly recognize f
 luvial lithofacies in core and outcrop.\nIdentify and constrain dimensions
  of reservoir (e.g., bars, channel belts, etc) and non-reservoir (e.g. lak
 e, floodbasin, etc.) architectural elements in well-logs, core, seismic, a
 nd outcrop.\nPlace reservoir elements into their correct position within t
 he fluvial architectural hierarchy (e.g. channel-fill vs. channel belt vs.
  valley fill).\nImprove reservoir evaluations through a gained understandi
 ng of the relationships between locally preserved net to gross and broader
  basin processes.\nEstimate heterogeneity and connectivity between and wit
