It emphasizes its industry-specific applications, teaching participants to write efficient Python programs and use its libraries such as NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, and SciPy for numerical operations, data input/output, scientific plotting, and interpolation respectively.
The second module dives deeper into data analysis and visualization, honing in on techniques essential for the oil and gas industry. Participants will become proficient in managing data cleansing, creating various visualizations, handling missing data, and interactive plotting using tools such as Plotly.
The third module focuses on production data analysis and forecasting. Here, participants will learn to conduct time-series analysis, visualizing production data, identifying and eliminating outliers, and performing decline curve and uncertainty analyses. These skills are vital in maximizing the efficiency and predictability of production operations in the oil and gas sector.
The course then proceeds to explore the applications of machine learning, both for lithofacies classification and well log synthesis. Participants will be introduced to the workflow of creating and evaluating classification and regression models, enabling them to classify lithofacies and predict well logs effectively.
Finally, the eighth module provides a comprehensive introduction to machine learning fundamentals, touching upon critical concepts such as supervised and unsupervised learning, dimensionality reduction, and explainable machine learning. Practical workshops are woven into this module, allowing participants to put their knowledge into practice by reconstructing wireline logs using random forests and performing outlier detection and clustering.
Upon completion, participants will not only have a solid foundation in Python programming and data analysis but will also understand how to implement machine learning models in their oil and gas operations and projects.

Training can take place in 4 formats:
- Self-paced
- Blended learning
- Instructor-led online (webinar)
- Instructor-led offline (classroom)
Description of training formats:
- Self-paced learning or e-Learning means you can learn in your own time and control the amount of material to consume. There is no need to complete the assignments and take the courses at the same time as other learners.
- Blended learning or "hybrid learning" means you can combine Self-paced learning or e-Learning with traditional instructor-led classroom or webinar activities. This approach requires physical presence of both teacher and student in physical or virtual (webinars) classrooms or workshops. Webinar is a seminar or presentation that takes place on the internet, allowing participants in different locations to see and hear the presenter, ask questions, and sometimes answer polls.
- Instructor-led training, or ILT, means that the learning can be delivered in a lecture or classroom format, as an interactive workshop, as a demonstration under the supervision and control of qualified trainer or instructor with the opportunity for learners to practice, or even virtually, using video-conferencing tools.
When forming groups of students, special attention is paid to important criteria - the same level of knowledge and interests among all students of the course, in order to maintain stable group dynamics during training.
Group dynamics is the development of a group in time, which is caused by the interaction of participants with each other and external influence on the group. In other words, these are the stages that the training group goes through in the process of communicating with the coach and among themselves.
The optimal group size for different types of training:
- Self-paced / E-learning: 1
- Instructor-led off-line (classroom): 6 – 12
- Instructor-led on-line (webinar): 6 – 12
- Blended learning: 6 – 12
- Workshop: 6 – 12
- On-the-job: 2 – 4
- Simulator: 1 – 2
Feedback in the form of assessments and recommendations is given to students during the course of training with the participation of an instructor and is saved in the course card and student profile.
In order to control the quality of the services provided, students can evaluate the quality and training programme. Forms of assessment of the quality of training differ for courses with the participation of an instructor and those that are held in a self-paced format.
For courses with an instructor, start and end dates are indicated. At the same time, it is important to pay attention to the deadlines for passing tests, exams and practical tasks. If the specified deadlines are missed, the student may not be allowed to complete the entire course programme.
