Understanding Sub-surface Pressures 2019 is a course that covers topics such as:
- Relationship between pressure and subsurface geological conditions, including mechanisms which create abnormal pressures, and the role of lithology in maintaining and distributing excess pressure
- The relevance of pressure interpretation in exploration/production/drilling
- The challenges of high pressure sediments, with particular reference to all types of tectonicenvironments including thrust belts
Understanding Sub-surface Pressures 2019 brings together:
- Geophysicists
- Geologists
- Engineers
- Petrophysicists
- Personnel preparing for future drilling, but also for the ability to incorporate pressure data and concepts into operations and future exploration programmes. Appreciation of pressure prediction methods and their uncertainties pressures is also needed by management, especially when the company operates in high-risk environments, such as HPHT and Deep-Water
