Integrated Reservoir Characterization and Geo-Engineering Modeling
Oil, Gas & Petroleum · 5 Days · Public · Al-Khobraa certified · From USD 3,900
Overview
Reservoir characterization will encompass parameter definition, petrophysical modeling, and geo-engineering modeReservoir characterization will encompass parameter definition, petrophysical modeling, and geo-engineering model development.
Learning Objectives
Specific components in petrophysical modeling incorporate a pay assistant with capillary pressure and nuclear magnetic resonance analysis modules, relative permeability modeling, hydrocarbon pay synthesis, and synthetic seismogram construction.
Geomodel development will comprise reservoir zonation, automated correlation of flow units and gridding and mapping; geo-engineering modeling encompasses volumetrics and material balance and parameterization for reservoir simulation.
Who Should Attend
This course is designed for production and reservoir engineers, development and exploration geologists, managers and supervisors, and other professionals seeking to strengthen their capability in this area.

Accreditation
Al-Khobraa certified. On completion delegates receive an Al-Khobraa certificate of achievement.
What do Al-Khobraa oil, gas and petroleum courses cover?
The portfolio spans the full value chain: upstream exploration, drilling and well control; midstream processing, pipelines and gas treatment; and downstream refining and petrochemicals — plus process safety management (PSM), HAZOP studies, corrosion control and plant operations. Trainers are practitioners from the sector.
Who should attend an oil, gas and petroleum course?
These courses suit process, production and petroleum engineers, plant and field operators and supervisors, maintenance and inspection staff, HSE and process safety professionals, and technical or commercial staff joining the sector from another industry.
How long are oil, gas and petroleum courses, and where are they held?
Most Al-Khobraa oil, gas and petroleum courses run over 5 days. The exact duration, dates and city for this course are listed in the dates section on this page. Public sessions run across Saudi Arabia — Riyadh, Jeddah, Al-Khobar, Jubail and Yanbu — as well as regional and international venues, with live virtual classrooms available on request.
What certificate will I receive?
Delegates who complete the course receive an Al-Khobraa certificate of completion, issued by a Saudi-registered training provider. Al-Khobraa also delivers internationally accredited programmes; where a course carries an external awarding body such as PMI, CIPS, ILM or IOSH, that body is named on the course's own page.
Can oil, gas and petroleum training be delivered in-house for our team?
Yes. Any Al-Khobraa oil, gas and petroleum course can be delivered in-house at your own premises anywhere in Saudi Arabia or the GCC, with the content, dates and language of delivery tailored to your team. Al-Khobraa is an approved HRDF (Hadaf) provider, so eligible Saudi employers can seek training support. Contact us for a quotation.
