Modules

This training course is split into two modules:

Module I - Fractured and Unconventional Reservoir Modelling

Module II - Advanced Seismic Interpretation

Each module is structured and can be taken as a stand-alone training course; however, delegates will maximise their benefits by taking Module 1 and 2 back-to-back as a 2-week training course.
