Geologic risks in petroleum exploration are related to the traps (geometry, reservoir, seal), as well to the petroleum Charge Risk. While traps are always subjected to the most detailed possible assessments as a part of the exploration risk analysis, this is not always the case for Charge Risking, even though it can easily be shown that the geologic risking is often dangerously incomplete without these risk assessments.

Petroleum Systems Modelling for Exploration Risk Assessments
Geologic risks in petroleum exploration are related to the traps (geometry, reservoir, seal), as well to the petroleum Charge Risk. While traps are always subjected to the most detailed possible assessments as a part of the exploration risk analysis, this is not always the case for Charge Risking, even though it can easily be shown that the geologic risking is often dangerously incomplete without these risk assessments.
The technology which is used to investigate Charge Risks is Petroleum Systems Modelling in which basin, play or prospect scale geologic models are created by interpreting and mapping key stratigraphic units and facies and subsequently processed by special simulators which can calculate the processes of hydrocarbon generation, expulsion, migration and loss through geologic time. In all leading exploration companies, charge risking using petroleum systems modelling is an essential component of the exploration risking workflow.
In this course, an introduction to the technology, the data and commonly performed tasks is given in order to illustrate the role of the technology in exploration risking as well as in hydrocarbon resource assessments. Applications cover the entire range of exploration phases from very early work in frontier areas to assessments in mature production areas, for example in order to explain why petroleum has specific properties or the distribution of oil vs. gas in an area of interest.
