Petrophysics 1300-WPFW-GES
The course is designed to provide knowledge of the petrophysical properties of rocks associated with hydrocarbon deposits and the methods used to determine these properties. The summary of the classes is a comprehensive interpretation of the results from different sources and on this basis alone carried out the classification of lithology and petrophysical rock. The course will be completed the following topics:
1. Characteristic of petrophysical properties (4h)
2. Microscopy methods (6h)
3. Laboratory methods (6h)
4. Logging (4h)
5. Seal rocks (4h)
6. Dygital rock physics (6h)

Learning outcomes
– understand the complex geological processes that have an impact on the petrophysical properties of rocks
– consistently applies the principle of the strict use of empirical data obtained by different research methods to comprehensive interpretation of petrophysical properties of rocks.
– have knowledge of the principles of planning field studies and laboratory tests for the selection of representative samples and interpretation of the results of research in the field of petrofizyki rocks.
– uses advanced techniques and research tools for research petrophysical properties of rocks.
- collects and interprets the empirical data on the basis of their formulate appropriate proposals
- demonstrate the ability to formulate reasoned judgments based on data from various kinds of laboratory and field.
- able to interact and work in a group both during testing and during the interpretation of the results, assuming different roles in the group.
- regularly update the knowledge of the petrophysical properties of rocks research and knows its practical use.
Assessment criteria
Class attendance and performance alone exercises (two absences allowed). The final written exam.
