Course Description

This course provides the format for genetic classification of sedimentary basins, drawing together the principles of the previous six modules into the evaluation of the earth’s plate tectonic framework. It explains identification and classification of sedimentary basins, their role in forming oil and gas, and the habitats of oil and gas within them. In addition, the course identifies the important elements essential to analyse the potential of the basin qualitatively and quantitatively and provides the systematic techniques of basin analysis to evaluate and develop the oil and gas exploration program of the basins.
 

Course Goal

To enhance participants’ knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to evaluate the sedimentary basin and determine its petroleum potential.
 

Course Objectives

By the end of this course, participant will be able to:

• Identify the important elements essential to analyze the potential of the basin qualitatively and quantitatively.
• Understand of the exploration plays expected in the basin.
• Classify of the basins and its potential for oil and gas discoveries.
• Employ the systematic techniques of basin analysis to evaluate and develop the oil and gas exploration program of the basins.
• Evaluate and improve modelling the different basins and enhances evaluation of new exploration plays and prospects.
