SPWLA 2010 Abu Dhabi Conference Announcement Carbonate Reservoir Rock Typing

15-18 February
Hilton Hotel, Abu Dhabi
Dear member,

the Abu Dhabi Topical Conference will be held a little earlier this year so mark your calendar. If you plan to submit a presentation please get it to the committee as soon as possible so it can be added to the agenda.

Don't forget to register and submit your presentations at the SPWLA website www.spwla.org
Application deadline date: 1 February 2010
We hope to see you there.
The SPWLA 2010 Abu Dhabi Topical Conference will be a forum for discussing Carbonate reservoir rock typing. We will cover the entire work flow from a basic understanding of carbonate depositional environment and facies types, through diagenesis and the impacts of cementation and dolomitization, scale issues related to volumes investigated and described in cores and logs to prediction and mapping of reservoir rock types between wells in models and simulators.

Uncertainty analysis, sense-checking, comparison with analogues and history matching of resulting models will also be discussed.

The final Agenda will vary with submissions received, but topics will include:
° Carbonate geology, deposition and diagenesis (Environments, facies and diagenetic processes, hydrocarbon charge and wettability effects)
° Reservoir Rock Type definitions (facies, electrofacies, static and dynamic reservoir rock types, flow units)
° Best Practices in Reservoir Rock Typing
° Predicting RRTs in uncored wells and between wells (Geostatistics, variograms, stochastic and deterministic techniques; Neural networks, training sets, fuzzy logic and predictive maps)
° Incorporating dynamic data in the static model(production logging, time-lapse monitoring logging, 4D seismic, cross well seismic and repeat Deep Electro Magnetic Imaging surveys, gravimetry)
° Integration of RRTs in static modeling & reservoir simulation
° Uncertainty analysis and Upscaling issues (i)
° History Matching, data quality and other hazards.
Preliminary Agenda (May be modified based on speakers' proposals.)

SPEAKER SOLICITATION
Please remember that the SPWLA Topical Conferences are informal, off-the-record discussions focused on a specific area. No papers or abstracts are published. We seek presentations from people who wish to speak. We welcome diversity of expertise to foster a genuine learning event.

WHO WILL BE THERE: Petrophysicists, Reservoir Engineers and other Geoscientists working on core analysis, monitoring logging and surveillance strategy, Carbonate Petrophysics, reservoir modeling and production management.

DISCUSSION GROUPS: Small breakout groups will further discuss the topics presented in the morning and then report back in a plenary session.
