Advanced Formation Pressure Evaluation 2015

Advanced Formation Pressure Evaluation 2015 is a workshop dedicated to planning and execution of wells.

Topics

• Wellbore instability caused by anisotropic stress
• Earth stresses and their relationship to pore and fracture pressures
• Fracture pressures and evaluate LOTs and FITs
• Overburden pressures and their importance in pore and fracture pressure calculations
• The controls on pore pressure distribution post generation
• The importance of recognising pore pressure generation mechanisms
• The interpretation of key pore pressure and earth stress indicators
• Quantitative pore pressure calculation methods
• HTHP and deepwater wells from the geologist’s perspective
• Use and interpret direct pressure measurements
• Use of managed pressure drilling (MPD) in HTHP
• Techniques for risks in well planning and execution of HTHP wells
