INTEGRATED PETROPHYSICS AV COURSE
Crain's Integrated Petrophysics AV Course includes narrated PowerPoint slides, exercises, and full colour PDF reference manuals. Narration simulates a live, in-house course presentation. A Certificate of Proficiency is awarded upon completion of assignments.

                                                                    ==>
These lectures are time-tested in major and independent oil companies, service companies, and government agencies around the world, and are backed by nearly 50 years of worldwide experience. This practical, no-nonsense, course is intended for personal study at work or at home. Workload is at 3rd or 4th year University level. No prior knowledge of logs is required, but some facility with basic math is an asset.

AV COURSE MODULES and CONTENT
These courses use the same materials as our in-house seminars, with narration similar to a live presentation.

You can run the slide shows at your own speed, repeat individual slides, pause to read more in the supplied reference manuals, have a coffee, feed the baby, or check your email - you can plan your time to suit your personal situation. The material is also suitable for a structured environment such as in-house training or tech school / university settings. Contact us by email for multi-student licensing.
