A set of knowledge domains facilitating Upstream operations:
Petroleum Geology | Studying reserves structure and volumes |
Rock Geomechanics | Studying response of rock and rock masses to the forces or displacements |
Petrophysics | Studying rock properties |
Reservoir Engineering | Modelling well and reservoir flow dynamics and generating forecasts |
Well & Log Analysis | Designing and interpretation of well logs |
Well Testing | Designing and interpretation of well tests |
Production Analysis | Long-term analysis of production history |
Fluid Analysis (PVT) | Modelling fluids produced from or injected into the petroleum reservoir |
Drilling Engineering | Designing and monitoring the well drilling |
Workover Engineering | Designing and monitoring workovers |
Production Technology | Well |
Performance Analysis and Production Planning | |
Subsurface Chemical Engineering | Designing the chemical treatments facilitating the optimal well and reservoir performance |
Field Development Planning | Creating Field Development Plans |
The first three disciplines and a part of the fourth discipline are often refereed as Geology and Geophysics (G&G).
