Exploration and Production in a Mature Basin - The North Sea

The course will review the structural and stratigraphic components of the North Sea and their role in hydrocarbon generation, migration and trapping, but will have a new focus on reservoir geology and exploitation of the remaining reserves. Leading experts from industry and academia are contributing their experience and in-depth knowledge in the finding, developing and producing oil and gas from the many reservoirs present in the North Sea.  Starting with the Late Palaeozoic reservoirs in the Southern North Sea and ending up with the most recent Tertiary plays, the course will be a must for all new entrants and new graduates joining the industry.

As with the London course the international training group Nautilus have been selected as a contributing partner and will help the tutors to prepare and deliver the material in the most effective manner.  Nautilus has been providing high-quality geotechnical training for the oil industry for eight years and is considered to be the most significant provider of Geoscience training in North America and Europe by the companies affiliated to the Geoscience Training Alliance (GTA). While not part of GTA, PESGB are able to draw on Nautilus’ skills and experience to ensure delegates receive a valuable learning opportunity. The course will be held on 7–9 October 2008 at the Aberdeen Exhibition & Conference Centre, Aberdeen.  Attendance will be limited to 50 delegates so early booking is advised.  Depending on demand the course will be repeated annually.
