course for PhD students 1300-SZD-WSZWP

Lectures were divided into several parts focused on following issues:
1) characteristic of type and character of hydrocarbon reservoir rocks in Poland;
2) recognition of lithology, sedimentary structures, depositional geometry of individual succession of rocks, boundaries of lithological complexes in the geological exposures and in the cores on the base of the selected reservoir rock formation;
3) description of sedimentary environments and depositional processes which create primary structure and mineral composition of the selected reservoir rock formation;
4) characteristic of diagenetic processes and mineralization of the selected reservoir rock formation;
5) characteristic of geophysical and petrophysical parameters on the base of selected well-logging;
6) description of normalisation methods of archival geophysical data, visualising methods, and limitations of used well-logging;
7) studium and synthesis of bibliography data;
8) full interpretation of lithophysical units in the sedimentary basin analysis context;
9) characteristic of correlation horizons (marker beds) distinguishing specific geophysical parameters, detectable during the field observations and core analysis;
10) detection of hydrocarbon fields on the base of selected well logs;
11) calculation of basic reservoir parameters of rocks: volume of shale volume and effective porosity
