Convention

Naturally Fractured Reservoirs

Coordinator: Faranak Mahmoudian and Amy Fox

8:00 am - 12:00 Noon
Paradigm Office, 298, 115 – 9th Ave SE

Abstract

The focus of this workshop will be on Naturally Fractured Reservoirs from both a geological and geophysical perspective. Presenters will represent a variety of disciplines from operators, service companies and academia. Example topics include seismic anisotropy, laboratory measurement of fracture properties and geomechanical modelling of fractured reservoirs. Open discussion will be encouraged by limiting presentation lengths, ensuring content is technical rather than commercial and not recording or distributing workshop content.
