Part of Field Study & Modelling and one of the Subsurface Production Disciplines


studying physical and chemical rock properties and their interactions with fluids with an ultimate objective to build a model predicting:


Primary petrophysical rock properties based on open-hole and cased-hole reservoir data logs 

Secondary petrophysical rock properties based on primary petrophysical rock properties


and includes the following study areas: 

Core AnalysisPetrophysical ModellingReservoir Data Log Interpretation



Petrological Analysis

Identifying the mineralogy and lithological facies from core analysis


Routine Core Analysis (RCAL)

Modelling Reservoir Data Logs


Special Core Analysis (SCAL)

Modelling Relative Permeability 


Digital Core Analysis (DCAL)Modelling Capillary Pressure

Modelling Saturation Height Function
