This session has been developed to answer the need for both new and experienced staff to be introduced to a variety of geological and technical concepts and applications. The session will be organized around presentations on concepts and applications in Geomodeling, Carbonate Reservoirs and Petrography, presented by experts in their respective fields. The session will be delivered in a “bootcamp” style, with an over-arching theme of “going back to the basics.” CSPG members have indicated a critical need for new graduates and recent hires to be exposed to the basic integrated concepts that are utilized in day to day work.
