This has significant applications in the hydrocarbon industry in terms of both exploration for, and production of, oil and gas. It is also an important component of the\u00a0International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP)\u00a0in helping to answer the many and varied questions posed by ocean research drilling expeditions around the world. This third\u00a0Petrophysics Summer School\u00a0will provide a unique workshop that will bring together experts from both academia and industry to give training in the theory and practice of petrophysics and, notably its applications across both IODP and industry.\u00a0There are few opportunities for training, especially for non-industry researchers, and with recent reports indicating significant skills shortages in the hydrocarbon sector, the workshop could attract a variety of participants including those who might not normally engage with the IODP community. In addition, the summer school will strengthen links between IODP and industry, increase the visibility of IODP, provide essential training to the next generation of petrophysicists and, importantly, enable future expedition participants to best utilize these data in their investigations of the ocean floor.\u00a0U.S.-affiliated students and researchers may apply for partial travel support through the\u00a0U.S. Science Support Program. A limited number of travel grants are available.
