This course provides a comprehensive examination of the diagenetic processes that fundamentally control the quality and heterogeneity of shale and carbonate reservoir systems. Unlike conventional sandstone reservoirs, shales and carbonates are exceptionally reactive after deposition, undergoing profound physical and chemical alterations that can create, enhance, or completely destroy reservoir potential. Participants will learn to integrate geological principles with petrophysical data to predict pore network evolution, fluid flow behaviour, and ultimately, hydrocarbon recovery.

Course Outcomes
Delegates will gain the knowledge and skills to:
Develop a clear understanding of the diagenetic processes affecting shale and carbonate reservoirs.
Analyze the impact of diagenesis on reservoir quality, hydrocarbon potential, and production performance.
Interpret diagenetic features using core, thin sections, geochemical data, and petrophysical logs.
Integrate diagenetic concepts into reservoir characterization and modeling workflows.
Apply case-based learning to solve practical reservoir evaluation challenges.
At the end of this course, you’ll understand:
This course is designed for geoscientists, reservoir engineers, Petro physicists, and professionals involved in exploration and production who want to deepen their understanding of diagenesis and its implications for reservoir quality. It is also beneficial for early-career researchers, and technical managers seeking to bridge the gap between academic knowledge and practical industry applications in shale and carbonate systems.
