CONTENT SUMMARY
INTRODUCTION
The course is designed as entry level for technical staff in E & D industries. It covers the fundamental topics including basics of petroleum geology, seismic response, velocity, time to depth conversion, resolution, seismic correlation, and seismic attributes.The beauty and art of seismic method and its interpretation lectures and exercises will be covered in this course. It is essential to any geoscientist, geophysicist and petroleum engineer working in the oil and gas industries. Familiarization with the basics and technologies of seismic reflection method and its applications will be conducted in simple and interesting bites.

OUR TRAINERS
1. Associate Professor Dr Mohamed Elsaadany (UTP)
Dr Mohamed Elsaadany is an Associate Professor at University Teknologi PETRONAS (Malaysia) since 2018. Before joining UTP, he served as a Principal in Reservoir Geophysics for Petronas Carigali with the main responsibilities of leading field development plans and exploration prospect evaluation in Malaysia, as well as international concessions. Dr Elsaadany is a well-rounded geo-scientist with 29+ years of multi-disciplinary experience in both Upstream exploration and production. His main skills are play based exploration, portfolio & prospect maturation, near field exploration/development, operational execution, coordination of geophysical/geological input to Field Development Plans, structural analysis/tectonic evolution and seismic interpretation (2D & 3D volume interpretation). He has worked with Shell Egypt Joint Venture, Cairo Egypt in Western Desert and Mediterranean, mud logging and operation in Gulf of Suez, Nile Delta and Western Desert, Egypt. Dr Elsaadany has a MSc and a PhD in Geology, Ain Shams University, Cairo, Egypt. He is currently teaching Seismic Interpretation, Principles of Stratigraphy and Petroleum Geology for UG in addition to sharing in a Geophysics Course-Work Master Course at Petroleum Geoscience Department.
