Introduction to Machine learning (ML) for Geophysics

Artificial Intelligence is no more and no less than a powerful extension of the human intelligence. Its power is in its capability to master data in multi-dimensional space (classification, regression, prediction, clustering) and map it onto a lower dimensional space while maintaining the inter-data relationships

Geophysical Data Acquisition and Processing

Start time: Jan. 1^st, April 1^st, July 1^st, Oct 1^st 2019 Duration: 3 months

Introduction

Course Program

This course will explain geophysical methods used in the search for hydrocarbons and minerals, monitoring pollution, and rejuvenation of polluted sites. These methods are gravity, magnetics, electrical, electromagnetics and seismic.

Teacher: J.C. Mondt

Advanced Seismic Data Acquisition and Processing

Start time: Jan. 1^st, April 1^st, July 1^st, Oct 1^st 2019 Duration: 3 months

Introduction

Course Program

This course will explain how to design optimum seismic acquisition and processing to obtain the maximum resolution at the targets. This might involve complementary non-seismic data in joint inversion schemes

Teacher: J.C. Mondt

Non-Seismic Data Acquisition and Processing

Start time: Jan. 1^st, April 1^st, Oct 1^st 2019 Duration: 3 months

Introduction

Course Program

This course will introduce the acquisition and processing of a range of non-seismic data. As an example: Marine Controlled Source Electro-Magnetics (CSEM) to detect directly the presence of hydrocarbons in seismically determined reservoir volumes.

Teacher: J.C. Mondt

Quantitative Reservoir Characterization

Start time: Jan. 1^st, April 1^st, Oct 1^st 2019 Duration: 3 months

Introduction

Course Program

This course deals mainly with combining quantitative seismic measurements with rock physics to determine the lithology, porosity, and pore fluid saturations. A most interesting application is of course time-lapse seismic in which the production is monitored from the surface (remotely).
