2 Masterclass Objectives GAIN insights on the economic potential and importance of natural gas worldwide RECOGNIZE the emergence of unconventional shale gas resources UNDERSTAND about the different types of black shales, their deposition and their distribution EXPLOIT different types of unconventional petroleum from black shales APPLY the principles of petroleum system analysis and prospects evaluation on unconventional shale gas reservoirs EVALUATE the potential and productivity of shale gas reservoirs from various perspectives ESTIMATE volumes and CLASSIFY unconventional shale gas reservoirs accurately ANALYZE the petrophysical parameters of shale-gas & shale-oil reservoirs UNDERSTAND about other unconventional gas types, like tight-sandstone gas BENEFIT from successful shale-gas and shale-oil plays in the world, including the US and Canada Masterclass Overview Shale gas is becoming an increasingly important source of natural gas in the United States over the past decade and is expected to grow further in the coming future. One analyst expects shale gas to supply as much as half the natural gas production in North America by This interest in shale gas has since spread quickly to the rest of the world as countries seek to produce more shale gas to reduce their dependency on foreign imported gas. This masterclass will provide a thorough understanding on the evaluation of shale gas and oil reservoirs from various perspectives (geological, geophysical, geochemical and petrophysical) and how to classify and estimate unconventional gas reserves accurately and precisely. Delegates will learn to evaluate the various black shales, as shale-gas & shale-oil targets, as well as predicting locations of quality shale plays. The course will also present on successful shale-gas/shale-oil plays in the US, Canada and other places in the world. A short presentation on other unconventional gas and oil types (tight sandstone-gas, Bakken Play) will also be included. Project exercises and case studies based from the trainer s past experience will also be covered extensively to allow delegates to gain practical experience from this masterclass. Who Should Attend This program is intended for : Exploration Geologists Explorationists Geoscientists Geophysicists Reservoir Engineers Petroleum Engineers PLUS those who wants to improve their knowledge in shale gas. The course will assume a basic knowledge in petroleum geology and use of Microsoft Excel. No chemical experience is needed. WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND PETROSYNC S EVENTS To ensure that all objectives of the course matches yours, all PetroSync programs are developed after intensive and extensive research within the industry PetroSync programs focus on your immediate working issues to ensure that you are able to apply and deliver immediate results in real work situations Application and implementation of industry knowledge and experience are the drivers for our course design, not theoretical academic lectures PetroSync training focuses on practical interactive learning tools and techniques including case studies, group discussions, scenarios, simulations, practical exercises and knowledge assessments during the course.
