Summary
Understanding the subsurface and placing exploration and production targets optimally remains of upmost importance in the current economic markets.
Faults play an important role in the definition of traps, often compartmentalizing simple structures into more complex ones. Faults can influence migration into, leakage out of and sealing hydrocarbons inside compartments over geological and production time scales. During the webinar afternoons, we explore the following topics to strengthen our understanding:
- Fault compartment case histories from oil and gas production
- Fault seal and leakage in CO2 storage
- Calibration of fault seal predictions
- Fault geometries, densities, and compartments
- Fault geometries and compartments from outcrop and seismic
The Force Structural Network Group invites you to this webinar for learning and sharing knowledge, methodologies and case histories on fault seal and fault compartments from exploration to late life production on any of the topics above.
