Basic Static 3D Modelling: a Practical Techniques to Build Static Geological Model
The purpose of this Basic Static 3D Modelling Training is to guide petroleum geologists and engineers with practical techniques used to build basic static 3D geological modelling.
Participants will learn about the concept of geomodelling, geostatistic, structural modeling, geology and depositional environment, variogram setting and modelling, facies and petrophysical modeling.
