London 2018
2 E D U C AT I O N D AY S L O N D O N 2 0 1 8Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the Board of the European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers
(EAGE), I am pleased to introduce our multiple short course programme ‘Education Days
London 2018’, which will take place on 19-23 March 2018 in London, United Kingdom.
The event consists of multiple one-day and two-day short courses delivered by
distinguished geoscientists and professionals. The courses are carefully selected to ensure
a consistent programme with appeal to a broad geoscience and engineering audience.
Multiple courses and topics are offered during the week, thus insuring that all attendees
can customize an educational programme appropriate to their own needs and interests.
Education Days is an ideal platform to increase knowledge and awareness of new
methodology for geoscience specialists. These short courses do not only reflect the
latest scientific developments in geosciences, but also demonstrate applications of these
theories to real-life problems.
This year the event will be held at the Holiday Inn Express London Heathrow T5, which is
accessible for all participants traveling from central London or any London Airport. Holiday
Inn Express London Heathrow T5 is ideally located close to the major motorways – M4,
M25, M40 – providing easy access from all directions. The Holiday Inn Express London
Heathrow T5 is located within Heathrow Airport’s area, and has local tourist attractions
such as Windsor and its historic Castle, Henley and the theme parks at Legoland
and Thorpe Park. For concert enthusiasts, the Wembley Arena is within easy reach.
Special registration conditions are available for EAGE and PESGB members.
I strongly encourage you to participate in one or more short courses during the EAGE
Education Days in London. I am sure that you will be positively surprised by the high
quality and professionalism of the courses.

Course Description
AVO (Amplitude Versus Offset) analysis has been a key
technology for de-risking drill targets as it can potentially
distinguish different fluids and litho-types. Over time the
application of the AVO technique has evolved and merged
with seismic inversion methods so that today the traditional
AVO analysis has been superseded by the analysis of
rock property volumes on the interpreter’s work station.
However, in order to derive these rock properties, we still
