Exploration Geostatistics

Use statistical methods to describe the characteristics of the hydrocarbon-bearing system. Validate the description by comparing data with reservoir analogs. Establish supporting trends for predicting properties in both drilled and non-drilled areas. Characterize dependence among multiple variables. Describe risk and uncertainty using probabilistic distributions. Apply preliminary statistical analysis methods to geological data. Apply conventional techniques to validate reservoir data and trend maps. Demonstrate an understanding of risk and uncertainty in probabilistic distributions. Build single model variograms for simple reservoir properties. Apply basic Krigging techniques to generate representative reservoir parameter maps.
