Introduction
Training course introducion / brief
The course provides understanding the fundamentals of the pore pressure, wellbore instability and applications in the oil and gas industry. These concepts and methods of pore pressure in different rocks, techniques and methods of assessment using wells’ data. It also gives good understanding of elastic and strength (mechanical) properties of the rocks, with an introduction to the basics of experimental rock mechanics. The course also examines the main approaches of construction of Mechanical Earth Model (MEM) and the further application of these models to solve the most important issues of exploration and development of oil and gas fields. The course includes examples of wellbore stability, modeling and forecasting abnormally high formation pressures. This course is designed for anyone involved in petroleum related exploration or well planning without detailed geomechanical experience.
