Hi,
I am Open as well as Cased hole wireline logging engineer with 5 years of experience. I did my graduation in Mechanical Engineering. I am thinking to be Petrophysicist. Are there any distance learning courses which can add value to my resume ? Please let me know.


Thanks


My suggestion is that if you first understand logging principles of every logging tool interpretation would not be far away....then start searching exercises for petrophysical exercises.

If you want to become a petrophysist at your own i would suggest you to

-understand working principle of all wireline logs first and look at some interprted logs as well.

-download well log exercises, print and try your interpretation.

-understand mathematical formulas regarding petrophysics like archie equation and cross plots for quantitative measurments such as volume of shale, saturation of water, porosity, permeability etc.

-try to aproach a petrophysist for time to time help and guidline.

Take Care
