Graduate Learning Outcomes (GLO) carried by the course

CPMK CodeCourse Learning Outcomes Elements (CLO)
CPMK 1Able to understand the process of natural fractured reservoirs and can classify them based on porosity (storage) and inter-porosity and can determine the orientation and thickness of the fractures that occur.
CPMK 2Understand the classification of carbonate porosity and recognize its geometry for use at the exploration stage. Can interpret capillary pressure curves, and determine changes in porosity due to the dolomitization process in carbonate rocks.
CPMK 3Able to determine the interrelationships between the reservoir parameters mentioned through mathematical, empirical and statistical equations. Understand the concept of effective and relative permeability in carbonate rocks and be able to create a relative permeability curve based on laboratory measurement results and empirical equations. Able to determine the compressibility of carbonate rocks under various compaction conditions.
CPMK 4Understand the equations of fluid flow in naturally fractured media and the differences with the equations in intergranular-intercrystalline porosity systems. Able to determine permeability, productivity, storativity and interporosity flow coefficient based on well test results. Able to calculate the size of oil and gas reserves in carbonate reservoirs
