OBJECTIVE

This course will get you acquainted with the practice of geostatistics in Isatis. It covers many topics - Data Loading, Exploratory Data Analysis, Kriging and Simulations - that you will be familiar with by the end of the session.

KEY FEATURES

The course is based on computer exercises applied to real datasets coming from the petroleum industry. Attendants will practice either alone or by groups of two people, they will keep a copy of their Isatis project at the end of the course (database, graphics, journal files, etc). It is required to have a feeling for the basic concepts of geostatistics (spatial data analysis, what are the Variogram and Kriging), however the course does NOT make use of mathematics and therefore can be followed by beginners in geostatistics as well as confirmed geostatisticians.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

Since Isatis is a general purpose geostatistical tool, learning how to use it is of benefit to any geoscientist or engineer who works on spatial data: geologists, geophysicists, reservoir engineers.

COURSE CONTENT

This session covers the following topics:

Presentation of the concepts and tools around which Isatis is organised: User Interface, types of data manipulated and organisation of the database, graphical capabilities, HTML on-line manual, batch capabilities.
Exchanging data with other software: loading data into the database.
Data management inside Isatis.
Classical statistics and Exploratory Data Analysis.
Computing experimental variograms and introduction to variogram modelling.
Applying Ordinary Kriging.
Introduction to simulations.
Graphics and reporting.
Exchanging data with other software: saving results outside of Isatis.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Optional days could be reserved for practicing on the attendant’s own dataset, with a particular focus on Data Loading and Exploratory Data Analysis. In such case datasets should be sent to Geovariances beforehand in order to make sure that they can properly be used during the training.
