Sedimentology Core Logging Short Course – Surat Basin
Objective The course aims to teach participants the skills and methodology required to review and log sedimentological core. The course will focus on methodology, observation and interpretation utilising select cores from the Surat Basin stratigraphy. Robust observations are critical to a successful and defendable interpretation of any stratigraphy and significant time will be spent emphasising this. Additionally, the course will explore the interpretation of facies and facies associations, erosional surfaces, stacking patterns, bedforms, ichnology, and ultimately the environment of deposition. Content The course will comprise short morning lectures introducing the principles of core logging on…

Sedimentology, Sequence Stratigraphy and Reservoir Characterisation Field Course
The “Sedimentology, Sequence Stratigraphy and Reservoir Characterisation Field Course” runs over approximately one week in south-east and central Queensland. It is modular, so particular outcrops can be included based on specific training requirements. The course can include a section on modern environments, or focus entirely on ancient systems. Modern Environments Courses can visit either Hervey Bay or Moreton Bay in south-east Queensland to examine modern sedimentary environments as a way of consolidating the learning objectives of the course. The focus of the exercises in these locations is on providing analogues to the depositional settings which…

Ancient Fluvial and Shallow Marine Sedimentary Systems Field Course, Sydney Basin, NSW
The Ancient Fluvial and Shallow Marine Sedimentary Systems Field Course runs over approximately five days in the Sydney Basin, NSW. The course runs from Sydney to Canberra, with students staying in Sydney, Wollongong and Batemans Bay. Background to the Sydney Basin The course is run at coastal exposures through the Permian and Triassic stratigraphy. These locations provide exceptional outcrops with superb sedimentary structures, varied trace fossil assemblages and well exposed stratigraphic relationships in scenic and easily accessible locations. The course itinerary broadly follows the depositional history of the basin in reverse, beginning in the Middle…
Heron Island Modern Carbonate Depositional Environments Course
The Modern Carbonate Depositional Environments course on Heron Island is aimed at geologists and reservoir engineers, and will include hands-on assessments of key features of modern carbonate systems which are pertinent to reservoir including facies, geometry and scale, and thus related issues of interconnectedness, flow units, flow barriers, and heterogeneity. The focus of this field course is providing participants with a practical understanding of the sedimentary characteristics and geometries of the principal reefal facies and the physiographic controls on their distribution. Field observations will be supported by discussion relating potential reservoir quality and porosity modification…
