This course examines different deepwater depositional systems and considers how deepwater process, topography and sediment supply impact on these systems. The course examines analogue data from turbidite reservoirs and modern turbidite systems. Depositional settings and sequences associated with clastic deepwater systems are reviewed, along with the geological controls on reservoir quality and architecture. It also examines post-depositional process that can have a major impact on reservoir quality and architecture, and considers this within the context of the petroleum system.

Carol is the Geosciences Technical Director for petroEDGE. Formerly, Carol was the manager of Robertson
Petroleum Training Centre & a Senior Project Scientist at Robertson CGG.
Here is what past learners have said about her previous training courses: -
 "It was overall a nice experience. Detailed explanations were given by the instruction and there were hands-on exercises on
samples, processes etc” Petrographer-Sedimentologis, Core Laboratories Int BV
 “Very informative examples given by Carol are relevant and excellent. Course is too compact, almost as if it is for a 2 weeks length
course. Do extend the time but maintain course content” Jr Geoscientist, JX Nippon Oil & Gas Exploration Malaysia
 “A very useful course. The trainer is very knowledgeable in the subject and I find that her explanation can be well understood”
Junior Geologist, JX Nippon Oil & Gas Exploration Malaysia
 “Great eye opening review of geological facies and seismic interpretation” PP, SC
 “Overall is good & the trainer is experienced in this topic” Geologist, JX Nippon Oil & Gas Exploration (Malaysia)

About this training course
This course examines different deepwater depositional systems and considers how deepwater process, topography and
sediment supply impact on these systems. The course examines analogue data from turbidite reservoirs and modern
turbidite systems. Depositional settings and sequences associated with clastic deepwater systems are reviewed, along
with the geological controls on reservoir quality and architecture. It also examines post-depositional process that can have
a major impact on reservoir quality and architecture, and considers this within the context of the petroleum system.
Key learning objectives:
 Gain an understanding of deepwater depositional systems, how they form and how they are identified using
different data sets
 To recognize how deepwater process and environments impact on reservoir properties, and to be able to predict
reservoir quality
 Interpret turbidite depositional environments using data from core, seismic and wireline logs
Who should attend?
Geologists from exploration and production, geophysicists, reservoir engineers and petrophysicists.
