DEVELOPMENT GEOLOGIST
Reservoir Characterization
Reserves Estimation
Reservoir Optimization
Development Geology = Production Geology = Reservoir
Geology
Hybrid discipline: geology on the field and reservoir scale.
Principal Responsibilities of The Development Geologist
(DG):
Estimation of Volumetric Reserves
Justifying drilling & workover options to improve recovery
Plan and acquisition geological data while drilling & production
Providing a framework for maximum financial return for his
company
DG requires good knowledge of many disciplines :
Structural Geology.
Stratigraphy and sedimentology.
Reservoir engineering.
Drilling methods and engineering.
Petrophysics.
Laboratory for rock and fluid
Seismology.
Petroleum Economics and management.
Petroleum Development Geology
What is a petroleum exploration &
development geologists?
EXPLORATION GEOLOGIST DEVELOPMENT GEOLOGIST
DISCOVERS HYDROCARBON
RESERVES
Technical and functional expertise
on regional geology

(basin /
petroleum system analysis, tectonic
and stratigraphy), geophysical
(acquisistion, processing and
interpretation), computer and other
technical
DEVELOPES & PRODUCES
HYDROCARBON
Technical and functional expertise
on reservoir geology, log

Additional: Financial awareness

understanding the business. Project
management, team work, achieving results skills Interpersonal,
communication, serving skills
WHY COMPANY SHOULD HAVE

A DEVELOPMENT GEOLOGIST
Engineers, Geologists and
Geophysicists dont just specialize in
different fields, they think in different
ways.
There is a communication problem:
the development geologist must be
able to bridge the gap.
Geophysical Processing
E&P Management
Drilling
Engineering
Reservoir
Engineering
Geoscience
Bridging the Disciplines

Enhanced operational efficiencies through new,
multi-disciplinary workflows
responsibility of the DG in
PREDEVELOPMENT EVALUATION
After field discovery :
Evaluate field for
reserves, well
placement and
design criteria.
DEVELOPMENT DRILLING
DG is responsible for:
Initiating development
well recommendations
Decide what reservoir
geological data should
be collected and prepare
the geological prognosis
Monitoring these wells
during drilling
Adjusting development
plans as wells are drilled
WELL SURVEILLANCE
Generally handled by the reservoir engineer (RE)
However, when performance is not as expected or when
remedial work is required (workover, stimulation &
optimization) the DG inputs geological constraint.
RE & DG work together to
evaluate unusual reservoir
performance.
RE & DG then make
remedial recommendations
FIELD STUDIES
One of the most important
roles of the DG :
Re-evaluation of old fields
and recognition of new
opportunities in these
fields.
This role will become
increasingly important in
the future as reserves
decrease.
Improved oil recovery as
well as enhance oil
recovery.
CONCLUSION
Development geology is not only a
rewarding, but a lucrative field for the
small and independent operator.
In the future, this field (which
requires skills in many oil/gas fields)
will become more important as
reserves decline.
The bottom line in all petroleum
exploitation is financial and
economic evaluations require input
from many disciplines: the DG must
have these skills.
The most important ability is
RESERVES ESTIMATION and
RESERVOIR OPTIMIZATION.
