Course Description: Audience:

This course is an integrated Wireline Logging course for geoscientists Log Analyst, Petrophysicist, Geologist or Wellsite Geologist wishing
combining theory and practice. It will be held at the Schlumberger to get more acquainted with the practical aspects of Wireline Logging
Wireline Logging British Training Centre in Livingston, Scotland. The data acquisition and interpretation.
course main objective is to provide exposure to both the practical and
theoretical aspects of Wireline Logging data acquisition and applica- Prerequisites:

The theoretical and practical sessions will cover a wide range of tools mended but not a prerequisite.
such as Resistivity, Nuclear, Sonic, Borehole Imaging and Nuclear
Magnetic Resonance technology.
The theoretical part will cover the tool physics, data acquisition pro-
cedures, Log Quality Control and a short workshop session on data
interpretations.
The workshop focus will be on interpretations in shaly-sand forma-
tions, and various shaly sand equations used to estimate Sw, such as
the Waxman-Smits and Dual Water equations. No special software
will be required.
Logging operations will be done under real conditions in the test wells
at the Schlumberger Wireline Logging British Training Center in Scot-
land. The practical part involves hands-on connecting and running of
logging tools in the hole, monitoring depth control, and the normal
data acquisition procedure and log quality control.
The course will be 50% in classroom and 50% on the well pad.
Personnel Protective Equipment will be required during the practical
sessions

Cost: GBP £4,500
