COURSE OVERVIEW
In addressing of importance of fractured reservoirs, PetroTecah offers this course focusing on Geological related geosciences aspects of naturally fractured reservoirs. These reservoirs are challenging type of the oil reservoir, which needs special attention and treatment. Participants will learn how to characterize fractures from the out crop to the reservoir using different methods (Borehole images, cores and geomechanics) focusing on the fracture’s geometry, density, apertures and some other important aspects.
COURSE OVERVIEW
This 5-days course will focus on details of fractures characterization using borehole images methods that allow to measure, classify and calculate the fractures properties. Porosity and permeability related fractures will be discussed and methods of how to calculate those parameters for different will be shown. Geomechanics plays an important role and allow to measure the stress generating the fractures, quantifying the fractures and their cinematic using advanced geomechanics methods.

INSTRUCTOR
Imene Ferhat
Imene Ferhat accumulate over 10 years of borehole images interpretation, geomechanics and geosciences experience. She joined Baker Hughes as a geoscientist and certified for advanced borehole images and awarded for the efforts and commitments. She became a team lead and contributed in several integration studies and geomechanics modelling delivered to different companies in Europe, Middle East and Africa. Imene Joined to the Algerian institute of petroleum (IAP) as instructor, presenting seminars and workshops for engineers in borehole images and geomechanics, and published recently a study titled “Fractures Characterization of the Combro-Ordovician Reservoir of Hassi Messaoud”, where she addressed the compartmentalization issue related to fault sealing in the periphery of Hassi Messaoud field.
