I have learnt and performed the following tasks,
• Petrophysical Interpretation:
Wireline log interpretation, calculation of volume of shale, Total porosity, Effective porosity, Resistivity of water, Saturation of water, Saturation of hydrocarbon, Bulk volume of water, Hydrocarbon bulk volume and Permeability.
• Structural Interpretation:
Data collection, Structural mapping, Cross-section Preparation, Structural and Stratigraphic correlations, Area Calculation by using time maps, Preparation of isopach maps, Play fairway maps and Fault seal analysis.
• Seismic Interpretation:
Demarcation of seismic reflectors, Horizons and Faults.
• Well Site Geology:
Mud Logging, monitoring of daily drilling activities, Daily geological and drilling reports writing

Reservoir Geomechanics
This will be completed by determining the location and architecture of reservoir and seal lithologies and establishing the location and effect of faults on the reservoir connectivity within the basin.
Overpressure is economically significant to help identify potential reservoirs and produce resources. However, it is important to understand overpressure to increase safety for personnel during drilling and to protect the environment from complications. Offshore drilling is considerably more expensive due to the locations involved and specialized equipment required, and that cost can be further increased if the well encounters overpressure. Understanding the mechanisms, magnitudes, and locations of overpressure in the basin allows safer, cost effective drilling and well casing programs to be designed. This is especially important as exploration for petroleum resources increases throughout the basin.
