Sample Course
Outcropping Oil Fields- From Seeps to the Subsurface©
Analogues for Acquisition, Development, and Prospecting
Participants spend the trip evaluating "Billion Barrel" oil fields
during a week of field trips and exercises including lease
sales, purchase opportunities, and prospect evaluation.
Exercises and data provides analogues for giant domestic and
international projects.
This trip offers a rare opportunity to tie outcropping oil fields
to subsurface production and to tie outcrop facies directly to
well logs. This unique venue allows the group to discuss
topics as diverse as seeps, basin analysis, and source rock
modeling to reservoir engineering for secondary and tertiary
recovery.
The class is designed for multidisciplinary teams and
experienced individuals from all areas of petroleum
exploration, development, or production. The trips and
exercises are designed to serve as an exceptional
teambuilding opportunity for newly formed or existing project
groups and have successfully integrated participants from
new hire interns to research PHDs to 35-year experienced
engineers and major company management.
