During 2004, OilTracers personnel presented short (1 - 2 hour)
oil geochemistry and gas geochemistry lectures on-site at 22
companies in North Africa and the Middle East . We presented
similar lectures at a large number of companies in the USA.
In addition, OilTracers personnel taught our 5 day class
"Petroleum Geochemistry: Tools for Effective Exploration and
Development" on-site at Caltex in Indonesia in October. We taught
this 5 day class again on-site at ONGC in Dehra Dun, India in
November. That was the second year in a row that we have taught the
class at ONGC.
We teach the 5 day class "Petroleum
Geochemistry: Tools for Effective Explor ation and Development"
through OGCI/Petroskills. In 2005, we will be teaching the same 5 day class in Aberdeen, Scotland (March
14-18, 2005), and in Dubai, UAE (November 12-16, 2005). Those
classes are available to the public for registration.
OilTracers LLC is also offering a class on Geochemical Techniques for Solving
Reservoir Management/ Field Development Problems. That class is
available upon request for in-house presentation throughout the
world. Both 2 day and 4 day versions of that class are available.
Thus far, OilTracers has taught this reservoir geochemistry class
at Petrobras in Brazil and at BAPCO in Bahrain. Various OilTracers
instructors are available to teach this class, including Dr. Mark
A. McCaffrey (who was the 2002 Distinguished Lecturer for the SPE
on Reservoir Management Applications of Geochemistry), Dave Baskin,
Brooks Patterson, and Mark Beeunas (all internationally recognized
experts on this subject). For more information on this class,

About OilTracers LLC
OilTracers LLC is a petroleum consulting company that
specializes in integration of geochemical, geological, and
engineering data to solve various petroleum exploration,
development, and production problems. In addition, OilTracers LLC
owns and operates the two premier petroleum geochemistry web sites
(www.oiltracers.com and www.gaschem.com) The databases on these web
sites, such as OilRef (a database of >14,000 petroleum
geochemistry citations), the Oil Sample Library (a listing of
>33,500 oil geological samples owned by various laboratories),
and the Petroleum Geochemistry Dictionary provide answers to more
than 5,000 inquiries a month. OilTracers LLC is organized very much
like a law firm, with our various scientists having complementary
areas of expertise. OilTracers LLC is not a laboratory. We do no
analyses. We only interpret data. All oil analyses are contracted
to one of several laboratories we use around the world. These
laboratories then transfer the data electronically to OilTracers
for interpretation.
