AIM
To develop a sound knowledge on nature and properties of rocks and minerals, sedimentation
and sedimentary environments, geological and geophysical methods in petroleum exploration
and development.
OBJECTIVES
At the end of the course students will be in a position to have knowledge on nature and
geological properties of petroleum, petroleum generation, migration, entrapment and
degradation, sedimentology of petroleum bearing sequences, primary and secondary porosity,
structural and stratigraphic traps, formation of water, oil shale and other non-conventional
petroleum sources.
Note : One day field excursion is a compulsory part of the course.
UNIT I 9
Introduction to earth science - Origin of earth. Nature and properties of minerals and rocks.
Sedimentation and sedimentary environment. Stratigraphy and geological time scale.
Introduction of plate tectonics.
UNIT II 9
Sedimentalogy of Petroleum bearing sequences - Sedimentary basins. Generation and
Migration of Petroleum. Physical and Chemical properties of Petroleum.
UNIT III 9
Subsurface Environment – Formation fluids – Composition, temperature, pressure and
dynamics. Traps and Seals. The Reservoir. Generation and Migration and Distribution.
UNIT IV 9
Exploration Methods - Well drilling. Formation Evaluation. Geophysical. Borehole Seismic
and 4D Seismic. Subsurface geology.
UNIT V 9
