3-Part Online (Self-paced) Tutorial:
Petrophysics for the Geoscientist
Come take advantage of an opportunity to learn at your own pace, from the privacy of your own home or office computer! In this series of three (2-hour) online tutorials, GeoMark's Chief Petrophysical Advisor, Dr. Stephanie Perry, shares petrophysical knowledge, workflows, and tips/tricks. Listen in as Dr. Perry shares the basics of Petrophysical wireline tools and log responses and the integration of Geochemical and Engineering data with resulting deliverables. Finally, an overview and knowledge-sharing of Petrophysics relevant to the Delaware and Midland Basins, relating Geoscience to the Petrophysical discipline. Feel free to sign up for a single course ($100 per course), or stay for all three ($250 for all three!). Below, we provide a breakout of each:

Course 3: Petrophysical Integration with Geochemistry Techniques and Application
2-hour tutorial to demonstrate how petrophysics can support and complement geochemical data and tools. Share examples of how petrophysics utilizes, builds on, and integrates the following geochemical laboratory data sets. Show how the data constraints subsurface characterization, what and how we learn from the integration, and generate additional ideas for application.
