Workshop 1
Advanced Borehole Image Applications – Reservoir characterization beyond dips

For this 2024 advanced borehole image applications educational workshop we will present a technique that integrates borehole image logs, conventional petrophysical logs, lab results and DST for modeling porosity and permeability in pre-salt carbonates. Since its development, this technique has changed the way pre-salt carbonates are modeled, becoming part of the petrophysicists and geologists’ workflows.

Workshop 2
Optimized Reservoir Performance: UDAR-Well Placement and High Angle /Horizontal Well Petrophysics

A review of the principles, benefits, and latest innovations in Deep and Ultra-Deep Azimuthal Resistivity technologies with case studies focused on well placement for optimal reservoir performance. Although UDAR helps us place wells, we also need to utilize near well data to understand the reservoir details for completion optimization and reservoir performance.

Workshop 4
New Advances in NMR Techniques and Applications

For this 2024 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) educational workshop we will get “back to basics” with three sub-topics: Core NMR, formation evaluation NMR (both wireline and LWD), and core to log integration. There will also be a brief introduction to NMR.

Workshop 5
Towards the effective use of borehole acoustics; Understanding, validating and utilizing sonic measurements

This course will provide a grounding in the principles of borehole acoustic measurements in both simple and more complex conditions, along with quality control techniques to ensure reliable data is obtained, and case studies showing how the results can be used for a variety of applications. This course will cover both wireline and LWD conveyances and explore the different acquisitions, capabilities, and applications of each and the case studies presented will cover both Brazil and international examples. Additionally, attendees would also be encouraged to bring their own case studies and examples for group analysis and discussion.

Workshop 6
Data Analytics – Understanding the Tools – Limitations and Opportunities

The 2024 data analytics educational workshop holds significance as it equips professionals with essential skills to harness the power of machine learning in petrophysical analysis. By addressing both the capabilities and constraints of these tools, the workshop fosters a comprehensive understanding, empowering participants to leverage data analytics for enhanced decision-making in various petrophysical challenges.

Workshop 7
Energy Transition Petrophysics – What is new, What is the Same

For this 2024 Energy transition petrophysics educational workshop we will discuss ” the need of this transition, what do we need from A to Z to make this transition smooth, effective and how to generate well-trained work force”.

Workshop 8
Petrophysics Surveillance – Technologies and Best-in Class Applications

The SPWLA wishes to invite all interested petrophysicists, reservoir engineers, and production engineers to this Reservoir Petrophysical Surveillance workshop covering essential aspects of data acquisition, processing, interpretation, and integration. Unlike formation evaluation which often is in static nature, a key feature of dynamic reservoir surveillance is the necessity of gathering and understanding the history of the study well/reservoir, in order to diagnose its current status and performance, like a family doctor, who is required to possess a specialist in-depth expertise as well as a generalist breadth of a variety subjects.
