Definition, typology, and in-depth analysis of naturally fractured reservoirs (NRF) in different geological contexts: different rock types (carbonates, clays, bedrock), burial, diagenesis, exhumation, folding, fault damage, cooling, mineralogical change. Anthropogenic induced fracturing systems (hydraulic, thermal), applications to shale plays, cap rocks and storage sites.
Integration of this knowledge into the exploration and exploitation of fractured reservoirs.
Concept and workflow for editing DFNs (discrete fracture networks).
Two-day presentation by Bertrand Gauthier of Total, free of charge: Static and dynamic properties of fractured oil reservoirs.

The module content is divided into three sections:
1) a sequence defining concepts, introducing a tool (R), and reviewing vocabulary related to statistical estimation and its application to calibrating hydrological parameters;
2) a sequence on methods for analyzing uncertainties and sensitivity, and
3) a sequence on data assimilation applied to hydraulic modeling. The EU will also be introduced by a presentation from an engineering firm executive who will explain the usefulness of this type of approach in engineering.
