The aim of the course:
aims to provide the students with knowledge to imagine and to interpret geological events in 3 dimensions and to solve geological problems. In addition, the well logs are defined, interpreted, evaluated and applicatons are made on well logs.
 
Learning OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
LO - 1 : understand the processes related to well geology2,11,141,3,4
LO - 2 : know the duty of well geologist2,5,111,3,4
LO - 3 : describe the laboratory systematics of the subsurface geology, and evaluate the data1,2,8,121,3,4
LO - 4 : correlate and interpretate the data1,3,11,121,3,4
LO - 5 : draw subsurface maps and sections, and interpretate them2,3,11,141,3,4
LO - 6 : recognize, explain and interpretate the well logs1,2,11,12,141,3,4
CTPO : Contribution to programme outcomes, TOA :Type of assessment (1: written exam, 2: Oral exam, 3: Homework assignment, 4: Laboratory exercise/exam, 5: Seminar / presentation, 6: Term paper), LO : Learning Outcome
