CH EN 6169 - Formation Evaluation and Petrophysics

Engineering petrophysics covers the assessment of rock type, hydrocarbon storage and transport capabilities, geologic depositional and tectonic environments, natural fracturing and mechanical properties appropriate to any part of the engineering life cycle of a well or field. It incorporates well logging, in situ testing, surface measurements, and core analysis. A recomended prerequisite is CH EN 6163, Petroleum Science.
