    실질적인 문제 해결방식을 찾아가는 교육생 참여위주의 교육

- Introduction : to geo-mechanics
- General fault characteristics
- In order to create a ‘common ground’ in the group, the first day will be spend on general aspects of the application of   

  structural geology and geo-mechanics in the E&P business. Introduction to stress and strain, some rock mechanics and

  the application of this subject to geological phenomena as encountered in the oil and gas business.

- Extensional tectonics : rifts, delta’s, domes.
- Theory, examples, analogue models, seismic interpretation. Structural geometries and fault properties that are

  characteristic for extensional tectonic regimes will be treated during the morning session of day-2. Structural reservoir

  types and fault sealing mechanisms will be part of the material.
- Strike-slip tectonics
- Theory, case history, analogue models, seismic interpretation. Structural geometries and fault properties that are

  characteristic for strike-slip tectonic regimes will be treated during the afternoon of day-2. Structural reservoir types, in-situ

  stress analysis and fault sealing mechanisms (also in sand-sand juxtapositions) will be part of the material. The 3D nature

  of this tectonic setting including pitfalls and traps in structural interpretation will receive special attention

- Compressional tectonics : fold-and-thrust belts
- Compressional tectonics : fault reactivation ? multi-phase tectonics.
- Theory, case histories, analogue models, seismic interpretation exercise. Structural geometries and fault properties that

   are characteristic for compressional tectonic regimes will be treated during the morning of day-3. Structural reservoir types

   and fault sealing mechanisms will be part of the material. During the afternoon session the mechanics of fault reactivation

   (inversion tectonics) will be discussed.

- Salt tectonics
- Fault sealing and top seal integrity
- Aspects of salt-tectonics will be discussed during the morning of day-4. Examples from the North Sea and the Gulf of

  Mexico, interpretation exercise. The afternoon session will be used to discuss fault sealing mechanisms and approaches

  to evaluate top seal integrity in exploration and in production scenarios.

- Fracture systems : fracture mechanics, reservoir examples and outcrop examples
- Analysis of fault and fracture systems, including fractal properties of fault and fractures and prediction of sub-seismic

  faults
- Theory, case histories, analogue models. The morning session will be used to discuss fracture mechanics, fracture

  types, natural fracture systems and their influence on reservoir characteristics and production strategies
