Marine Petrophysics

About this programme

The course covers laboratory and in-situ methods for measuring standard petyrophysical properties of marine sediments. These include, pore space properties and permeability, as well the elastic, geocmechanical, electrical and thermal properties. The course will look at quantitative relationships between these properties, and through numerical exercises, the students will learn how they are commonly applied within industry and research to investigate different marine geological processes. Re-exams may be held on campus. Course evaluations allow the possibility to affect and take responsibility for your own learning and gives important information for our work with pedagogical development. It's important that all students complete the course evaluations after each course, it gives the Department the opportunity to improve the courses' quality. The course evaluation is composed of a number of questions and specific questions for each course. If you, as a student, want to contribute with more course specific questions you may send them to studies@geo.su.se . If you haven't received the course evaluation for your finished course, or if you have other questions regarding course evaluations at IGV please contact studies@geo.su.se . Course evaluation = student's review of the course Course report = course leader's reflections about the review *If the PDF files are not accessible for you to read, kindly contact studies@geo.su.se Course leader Matthew O'Regan (Professor of Marine geology) matthew.oregan@geo.su.se 08-674 78 57
