Initially\, CCS projects were primarily onshore in eastern Australia\, focusing on sequestering CO2 from power generation. By 2011\, the focus had shifted dramatically. Despite regulatory advancements\, the number of active projects decreased between 2011 and 2020. However\, policy shifts such as the Federal government’s net-zero emissions target by 2050 and the introduction of the revised Safeguard Mechanism in 2023 spurred a resurgence in proposed CCS projects\, particularly for LNG and hard-to-abate emission mitigation. Currently\, with record numbers of planned projects\, the need for regulatory reform is evident. The existing petroleum-based CCS regulatory framework poses inefficiencies\, which are further complicated by interactions with Australia’s obligations under international agreements. This complexity emphasises the necessity for regulations tailored to contemporary CCS project realities to meet Australia’s emission reduction commitments. \n

SUMMARY:PESA WA August Technical Lunch:  2023 Australian Exploration and Appraisal
DESCRIPTION:Hosted with thanks to our Platinum sponsor SLB: \n  \n \nGold Sponsors IKON Science and DUG: \n                                              \n  \nand Silver Sponsors Delft and Qeye: \n              \n\nPESA WA invites you to our technical luncheon on Thursday 15th August.\n2023 Australian Exploration and Appraisal Year in Review\nPresented by Adam Craig (RISC)\n\nThis presentation attempts to be a concise summary of petroleum exploration and appraisal activity in Australia for 2023. Exploration trends\, acreage releases\, bids and awards\, seismic acquisition\, drilling activity and transactions. \nPetroleum exploration expenditure in 2023 increased modestly over that of 2022. But remains well below expenditure highs of a decade ago\, which was dominated by offshore activity. Exploration expenditure\, and activity\, is now dominant in onshore state jurisdictions. This has been the case since 2019 and will continue with no Federal offshore petroleum exploration acreage release rounds or exploration permit awards in 2023. Exploration expenditure (and activity) appears to be de-linked from increases in commodity prices which have typically been exploration stimuli in the past. This suggests that other factors including access to acreage\, regulatory burden\, legal challenge\, social and environmental\, are at play. \n  \nTicket Prices: \nMember (Early Bird): $69.00 \nConcession Member [Retired\, Graduate or Hardship] (Early Bird): $59.00 \nStudent Member (Early Bird): $39.00 \nNon-Member: $99.00 \nMember (Non-Early Bird): $79.00 \nEarly bird pricing ends Thursday (1 week prior) at 5pm (AWST). All ticket sales close at 5pm Tuesday (2 days prior). \n

SUMMARY:2024 PESA WEBINAR SERIES: Deploying Passive/Microseismic Technology to Monitor Subsurface Reservoirs During CO2 Injection
DESCRIPTION:Kindly supported by Rock Flow dynamics  \n  \nThis live webinar will take place at: \n11am              – Perth\n12.30pm       – Darwin\, Adelaide\n1pm                – Brisbane\, Canberra\, Hobart\, Melbourne\, Sydney \nUse the calendar link on this page to add this event in to your own calendar at the correct local time for your location. \nTickets are free for members (please log in to see this) and $10 for non members. \nPlease buy your tickets and immediately follow the link in the ticket e-mail (not the calendar invite or this webpage\, which is just generic and not event specific) to set up your registration with the webinar software well in advance of the time of the talk. Once registered with the webinar software you will receive a reminder e-mail 1 hour beforehand. \nDeploying Passive/Microseismic Technology to Monitor Subsurface Reservoirs During CO2 Injection \nPresented by Roy Bitrus (TenzorGEO) \nAbstract \n\nTenzorGEO aim to advance passive seismic CO2 monitoring technology to enhance environmental stewardship in carbon capture and storage\, and together with operator partners ADNOC have deployed the technology in the Middle East. The results showcase the ability of passive seismic data to verify the containment of CO2 and serve as an early warning system and stability indicator for injected CO2. The solution known as Cuttlefish Carbon Guard (CCG) integrates both passive seismic and microseismic methods with a wider frequency spectrum from 0 – >100Hz to locate microseismic events\, analyse the integrity of the caprock and the storage reservoir\, and analyse spectral responses due to CO2 saturation velocity changes to visualise the reservoir and injected CO2. \nMethod: \nTo develop and standardise acquisition\, processing and interpretation of microseismic data acquired during CO2 monitoring projects the following areas was focused on: Data acquisition\, method workflow\, software and algorithm testing as well as development. \nData Acquisition: Here\, an effective combination of sensor types 1C and 3C were designed and deployed as patches in a grid array. This helped achieve an integrated workflow with reduced volume of acquired data and improved SNR. Data acquired is in the frequency range of 0.1 – >100Hz with tests performed onsite prior to acquisition to determine and suppress surface waves. \nMethod Workflow: Integrate and adapt two standalone passive seismic methods into one solution capable of analysing\, filtering\, processing and interpreting data to visualise the storage reservoir and injected CO2. \nMethod A aims to locate the microseismic events and determine the moment tensor in the reservoir rock – i.e. in response to changes in pressure\, fluid displacement\, pore fluid saturation\, reactivation of fractures and filtration channels.\nAdditionally\, Method B analyses the spectral response of vertically directed P-waves from ambient background microseismic noise (0.1 – 10 Hz) to delineate CO2 saturated rock due to velocity changes. \nSoftware: Finally\, test the capability of the software by acquiring relevant passive seismic data from a CO2 injection project in a field trial with ADNOC. The data acquired will feed into the model and educate the interpretation team as they aim to standardise procedure and application of the solution. \nConclusions: \nThe field project highlights the capability of an integrated passive/microseismic solution\, paving the way for standardized procedures in the measurement\, monitoring and verification (MMV) sector of the industry. The project underscores the technology’s potential to add cost\, security and innovative value while monitoring subsurface reservoir integrity and track CO2 velocity changes. The continuous monitoring nature of the technology can help to increase public and stakeholder confidence.

SUMMARY:2024 PESA WEBINAR SERIES: Sediment Provenance Analysis of the Early Permian Reservoirs of the Perth Basin (Chemostrat)

Once registered with the webinar software you will receive a reminder e-mail 1 hour beforehand. \nSediment Provenance Analysis of the Early Permian Reservoirs of the Perth Basin \nPresented by Stuart Munday (Chemostrat) \nAbstract \n\nThe sediment provenance of Early Permian reservoirs (‘Kingia’ and High Cliff sandstones) of the onshore North Perth Basin is poorly understood. Bulk rock inorganic geochemistry\, detrital zircon geochronology and heavy mineral data have been used to assess spatial and temporal changes in provenance in the vicinity of the Waitsia\, Lockyer Deep\, West Erregulla and Beharra Springs Deep discoveries. The geochemical data provides a chemostratigraphic framework for the Early Permian that can be confidently correlated throughout the basin. The detrital zircon and Raman data have recognised significant regional variabilities. The zircon data defines western and eastern regions that were separated and/or infilled by different depositional systems\, likely defined by the Mountain Bridge Fault. Raman analysis demonstrates that the High Cliff and ‘Kingia’ sediments in the vicinity of Waitsia have different zircon age populations and heavy mineral assemblages\, with the ‘Kingia sandstone’ dominated by apatite indicating access to a granitic source at this time. This is poorly represented by wells in the northern Dongara Terrace and Allanooka Terrace\, where sediments are dominated by garnet. Analysis of Lockyer Deep and West Erregulla discovery wells in the northern Dandaragan Trough\, also demonstrate only minor amounts of apatite\, but also include a significant mafic component\, the source of which is uncertain. The geochemical data demonstrates that the top of these reservoirs is defined by a highly consistent change in provenance\, coincident with a switch to garnet-rich sediments and different dominant zircon age populations.

SUMMARY:PESA WA Christmas Luncheon 2024:
DESCRIPTION:PESA WA invites you to our Christmas Technical Luncheon on Thursday 12th December\nTalk by Ernie Delfos – ‘Colour of Rocks’  \n\n\nHaving spent over 40 years in the great Oil & Gas industry\, you know what part of your career you are in when you are invited to give a talk on it. It seemed an appropriate invitation to accept when in July this year I realised that my passion for geology came a full circle with a trip to the Bungle Bungle Range in the Kimberley region. The magnificent beehive structures and their alternating red and yellow colouring caused the posing of the question why? The same question as a teenager I asked what causes the colour of rocks and who studies this? \n\n\nTransitioning from full time employment to “my time” employment is exciting and highly recommended if affordable and I am excited to share experiences\, lessons learned\, and yarns on all these influences and mentors that shaped my career so far. \nI strongly believe there is plenty of running room in the future demand of hydrocarbons to improve global standards of living\, while we find better ways to cut emissions and seek alternatives. \n\n  \nPESA WA Annual General Meeting\nPESA WA is seeking new committee members to support the running of the society and its active program of technical and social events throughout the year.  A range of positions are available\, with opportunities to shadow existing members to build experience and understanding of the committee. \nNominations for 2025 committee positions are required by the 6th of December\, prior to the AGM at the Annual Christmas Luncheon on the 12th of December. For further information please review role descriptions in the 2025 nomination form (link below) or reach out to the WA President (wa-president@pesa.com.au) or WA Secretary (wa-secretary@pesa.com.au) for further details. \nPESA Committee Nomination Form \n\nHosted with thanks to our Platinum sponsor SLB: \n \nGold Sponsors IKON Science and DUG: \n \n  \nand Silver Sponsors Delft Inversion and Qeye: \n               \n  \nEach lunch ticket includes networking drinks at Metro Bar afterwards.  No admittance to the drinks if you have not purchased a lunch ticket. \n\nTicket Prices: \nMember (Early Bird): $79.00 \nStudent Member (Early Bird): $49.00 \nNon-Member: $109.00 \nMember (Non-Early Bird): $89.00 \nEarly bird pricing ends Thursday (1 week prior) at 5pm (AWST).

SUMMARY:February 2025 Workshop - Good Model: Bad Models – How Can We Tell?
DESCRIPTION: Good Model: Bad Models – How Can We Tell? \nA one-day workshop with Mark Bentley\, 13th February 2025 \nReservoir and simulation models are widely used to generate forecasts and support decision-making in operating companies\, yet the results often disappoint.  Where do models ‘go bad’\, and what can we do to address the disappointments? \n\nFirstly: sometimes we do OK.  There are excellent examples of useful models which help support good development decisions and help move us forward. \nHowever\, there is also a broad tendency towards over-optimism in modelling\, a habit of making forecast ranges which are too narrow and key heterogeneity is often lost in the modelling process\, leading to misleading predictions. \nIn this one-day workshop\, common causes are shared\, along with suggested solutions and\, for those who use or review models\, things to query. \n\nWorkshop will take place at the Parmelia Hilton Hotel\, Perth on the 13th February 2025: \nMembers: $400 \nNon-Members: $500 \nStudent Members: $100

SUMMARY:PESA WA February Technical Lunch: Natural Hydrogen in Western Australia
DESCRIPTION:Hosted with thanks to our Platinum sponsor SLB: \n  \n \nGold Sponsors IKON Science and DUG: \n                                              \n  \nand Silver Sponsors Delft and Qeye: \n              \n\nPESA WA invites you to our technical luncheon on Thursday 20th February.\nNatural Hydrogen in Western Australia\nPresented by Leon Normore (Geological Survey of Western Australia)\n\nThe nascent field of natural hydrogen investigations is expanding rapidly worldwide. Recent studies in Australia have documented hydrogen in natural gas samples in both sedimentary basins and cratonic settings. Study of open file data at the Geological Survey of Western Australia (GSWA) focused on historical occurrences of hydrogen primarily within the onshore sedimentary basins. Petroleum wells were the primary data source\, but natural hydrogen has also been detected in mineral exploration drillholes\, shallow gas seep drilling and water bores in Western Australia. The GSWA has investigated soil gas spot sampling and continuous soil gas measurements for natural hydrogen in the Canning and Perth Basins. Additional studies include the use of Fluid Inclusion Stratigraphy (FIS) from well cuttings and core demonstrating anomalous zones of both hydrogen and helium in petroleum wells. \nLegislation for exploration of natural hydrogen in Western Australia was passed in May 2024 by adding hydrogen as a prescribed regulated substance to the Petroleum Legislation Amendment Act 2024. Supporting regulations for natural hydrogen exploration are currently being developed in conjunction with the transport and storage of greenhouse gas regulations. \nTicket Prices: \nMember (Early Bird): $69.00 \nConcession Member [Retired or Hardship]: $59.00 \nStudent Member: $10.00 \nGraduate Member: $20.00 \nNon-Member: $99.00 \nMember (Non-Early Bird): $79.00 \nEarly bird\, Concession\, Student and Graduate Member pricing ends Thursday (1 week prior) at 5pm (AWST).

DESCRIPTION:PESA technical lunches are back for 2025! \nPESA Queensland welcomes Dr Julie Pearce to present a technical luncheon on What happened to CO2 storage in the Great Artesian Basin? (Navigating gas water rock reactions and potential groundwater impacts) \nThe Technical Lunch will be held at the Brisbane Hilton Hotel\, (Room TBC). \nFor detailed directions\, see explanation below. \nPlease note the Early Bird ticket pricing cut-off times described below. \n\n\n\nPresentation:\nWhat happened to CO2 storage in the Great Artesian Basin? (Navigating gas water rock reactions and potential groundwater impacts)\n\n\nVenue:\nHilton Hotel Brisbane\, 190 Elizabeth Street\, Brisbane QLD 4000\nRoom TBC\n(Detailed directions below)\n\n\nDate & Time:\nThursday\, 20 March 12:15 PM\n\n\n\nPresentation Abstract: \nCarbon dioxide geological storage is one option to enable Australia to reach net zero. Several carbon storage demonstration sites are undergoing feasibility studies and environmental impact assessment internationally and in Australia. Very recently CO2 storage in the Surat Basin gained a lot of media and political attention – the QLD government has now put a ban on CCS in the geographical extent of the QLD Great Artesian Basin (and below it). The reservoir that was being assessed is in a deep (~2300 m)\, brackish\, unpotable part of the Precipice Sandstone. However\, the broader formation is an aquifer of the GAB\, therefore stakeholders were sensitive to potential environmental impacts. The previous demonstration site that underwent assessment was further north in the shallower part of the Precipice Sandstone (~1200 m). In that Glenhaven site the West Wandoan 1 well was drilled for the feasibility study\, and the reservoir had fresh groundwater. This presentation details part of the experimental and field sampling components of the underlying research\, including CO2-water-rock geochemical reactions\, metal mobilisation\, and creation of a reactive transport model. \n\nTickets for the Technical Luncheon can be purchased below. \nPlease be advised of the early bird cut-off date. \nEarly bird pricing will remain available up until Friday\, 7 March 11:30 PM  after which\, standard pricing will come into effect. \nStandard ticket pricing will be available until Monday\, 17 March 12:00 PM – To avoid disappointment please register before this time. \n\n\n\n\nEarly Bird Ticket Price\nStandard Ticket Price\n\n\n\n\nMembers – $55\nNon-Members – $75\nStudent / Retired Members – $30\nMembers – $75\nNon-Members – $95\nStudent / Retired Members – $30\n\n\n\n\nLate ticket sales up to Wednesday\, 19 March 12:00PM will be available at $95 for all tickets – subject to availability.

SUMMARY:PESA WA April Technical Lunch: What you should know about borehole images but were afraid to ask…. Forty years of hard-won lessons
DESCRIPTION:Hosted with thanks to our Platinum sponsor SLB: \n  \n \nGold Sponsors IKON Science: \n \n  \nand Silver Sponsors Delft\, Qeye and Task Fronterra Geoscience: \n                       \n\nPESA WA invites you to our technical luncheon on Thursday 17th April.\nWhat you should know about borehole images but were afraid to ask…..  Forty years of hard-won lessons\nPresented by Lawrence Bourke (Task Fronterra Geoscience)\n\nBorehole images (BHI) have been around commercially\, for around 40 years now.  The real breakthrough was led by SLB using micro-resistivity on wireline providing cm scale\, high resolution images capable of supporting detailed sedimentological and fracture characterisation to compliment structural analysis.  A whole new field of study\, complimentary to core and seismic data was born! \nIn the early 1990s two things began in earnest:  The development of LWD tools (which would take 20 years to catch up with wireline usability) and the widespread use of Oil Based muds which were a serious setback to BHI interpretability and application\, that would take nearly 20 years to resolve with electronics innovation. \nToday\, there is a bewildering array of image tools: micro resistivity\, sonic\, density\, induction\, capacitance\, electromagnetics\, passive nuclear etc.  All the acquisition companies have their “me too” LWD and wireline offerings\, and also rebrand from time to time!.  But they are not all the same\, in terms of resolution\, bedding definition\, accuracy and application.  But the sales engineers won’t really help you decide! \nFortunately\, we have done that hard work of comparison\, applicability\, and reliability.  Based on detailed commercial studies across the globe over the last 40 years\, the conclusions are presented in a clear and concise manner for the casual BHI user. \nTicket Prices: \nMember (Early Bird): $69.00 \nConcession Member [Retired or Hardship]: $59.00 \nStudent Member: $10.00 \nGraduate Member: $20.00 \nNon-Member: $99.00 \nMember (Non-Early Bird): $79.00 \nEarly bird\, Concession\, Student and Graduate Member pricing ends Thursday (1 week prior) at 5pm (AWST).

SUMMARY:Joint PESA - SPE WA Evening Event May 2025:  CCS projects and insights from across Australia
DESCRIPTION:PESA – SPE WA invites you to Joint Evening Event.\n\nCCS projects and insights from across Australia: Thursday 15th May 2025\n\nGorgon Carbon Capture and Storage – Insights and Lessons Learned\nRobert Root (Chevron Australia) will provide an overview of Gorgon CCS including performance to date\, system optimization\, and key lessons for other CCS projects. The Gorgon Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) plant is supplied by gas from two foundation fields: Jansz which has low reservoir CO2\, and Gorgon which is relatively high in reservoir CO2 (~14%). The design of Gorgon Project included systems to extract CO2 from the reservoir gas stream feeding the LNG plant and inject it into the Dupuy Formation below Barrow Island (BWI) for permanent storage. Since 2019 CO2 has been injected into the Dupuy at globally significant rates with over 10 million tonnes injected\, however the system has been limited by the capacity to manage reservoir pressure through producing water from the Dupuy Formation and injection into the overlying Barrow Group. Activities are currently underway to increase pressure management capacity including side-tracking and re-completing existing wells\, drilling additional wells\, and installation of surface filtration facilities. \nCO₂mpartmentalising Climate Change: Perth Basin’s Role\nJulia Cass (DEMIRS) will discuss reservoir quality controls in the Perth Basin that have been evaluated to rank carbon storage targets for a CO₂ Storage Atlas being prepared by the Geological Survey of Western Australia. The key attributes for the most prospective targets include thick intervals with high net-to-gross passing cut-off criteria of shale volume below 30% and porosity greater than 10% at depths suitable for supercritical CO₂ storage. Reservoir heterogeneity is preferred as it permits greater lateral plume migration by enhancing residual gas trapping thereby boosting storage efficiency. These attributes alongside seal effectiveness determine the most suitable storage intervals. \nThe Cattamarra Coal Measures emerged as the highest-ranked storage interval of the evaluated targets. It is characterised by thick\, high net-to-gross sections with coarse-grained channel sands providing excellent injection potential. Burial and temperature control diagenesis which naturally degrades porosity and permeability with depth ultimately defining the lower limit of intervals prospective for storage. A combination of temperature modelling\, petrophysical analysis and depth mapping has been utilized to delineate the Cattamarra Coal Measures reservoir target and assess the overlying regional seal of the Cadda Formation. \n\nGlobal CCUS overview: Pivotal progress and persistent challenges\nAnne Forbes (Wood Mackensie) will discuss the highs and lows in the CCUS space across 2024. The 48 Mtpa of sanctioned project capacity was much lower than expected\, although new project capacity announcements remained at a healthy rate. Asia Pacific led in licencing\, with 90% of new awards occurring in APAC. And in Australia\, Moomba CCS\, the world’s lowest cost CCS project to date\, commenced operation. \nLooking forward\, we expect a record number of FIDs\, industry first start-ups\, and the first commercial scale CO2 ship to set sail in 2025. But at a global level we expect the rate of licensing to slow as existing work commitments are actioned. \n\nTickets on sale shortly: \n\nTicket Prices: \nMember (Early Bird): $40.00 \nNon-Member (Early Bird): $60.00 \nMember: $50.00 \nNon-Member: $70.00 \nEarly bird pricing ends Thursday (1 week prior) at 5pm (AWST). All ticket sales close at 5pm Tuesday (2 days prior). \n  \nHosted with thanks to our Platinum sponsor SLB: \n  \n \nGold Sponsors IKON Science and DUG: \n \n  \nand Silver Sponsors Delft\, Qeye and Task Fronterra: \n                      \n\n

SUMMARY:PESA WA and CCUSNA - Perth Basin from a CCS Perspective Core Workshop
DESCRIPTION:PESA WA and CCUSNA\n10th of June \, 9:00 – 1600 Carlisle Core Library\nPerth Basin from a CCS Perspective\nSpend a day at the Perth Core Library considering how our collection of cores help us to understand CCS targets in the Perth Basin. We will delve into the importance of characterising seals\, the influence of reservoir heterogeneity vs homogeneity and how diagenesis impacts pore geometry. \nThe Cattamarra Coal Measures ranks highly as a saline aquifer CCS reservoir target as it has excellent net-to-gross and reservoir quality over thick intervals. The fluvio-deltaic depositional environment of this unit provides for significant heterogeneity to promote lateral migration of the injected plume. Diagenesis impacts reservoir quality as a function of depth of burial and reservoir temperature. These impacts will be demonstrated with a suite of cores from various structural settings in the basin. \nThe Dongara Sandstone has attracted attention as a potential CCS reservoir target in depleted fields. Due to the homogeneous nature of the shoreface facies\, this may be the best interval to study the impact of hydrocarbon charge on diagenesis and porosity preservation. \nCores of sealing lithologies are rare but provide important constraints when characterising a CCS storage formation. A suite of cores from the Kockatea Shale and Hovea Member will be investigated to understand variations in facies and the impact of diagenesis on geomechanical properties. \nThe workshop will be led by Julie Cass and Arthur Mory (GSWA) with assistance from Simon Molyneux (Molyneux Advisors) and Jeremy Prosser (Task Fronterra). Simon will show how cuttings can be utilised to investigate these same reservoir quality controls and Jeremy will illustrate how image log data compliments analyses of core and cuttings. \nOrganiser: Julie Cass and Arthur Mory (GSWA) with assistance from Simon Molyneux (Molyneux Advisors) and Jeremy Prosser (Task Fronterra) \nHard limit of 30 attendees.  \nCost:  \nPESA Members:  $30 \nCCUSNA Members: $30 \nThis event is for PESA WA and CCUSNA members only.

SUMMARY:PESA WA June Technical Lunch: The Renaissance Tour: A revival of frontier basins with data-driven exploration
DESCRIPTION:Hosted with thanks to our Platinum sponsor SLB: \n  \n \nGold Sponsors IKON Science: \n \n  \nand Silver Sponsors Delft\, Qeye and Task Fronterra Geoscience: \n                       \n\nPESA WA invites you to our technical luncheon on Thursday 19th June.\nThe Renaissance Tour: A revival of frontier basins with data-driven exploration\nPresented by Lauren Found (Searcher)\n\nAs the energy exploration landscape shifts and evolves\, so too does the thinking around the basins we investigate. Advancing seismic technology in the last decade has allowed for a fresh perspective on frontier and previously discarded basins\, with the shifts in thinking yielding billions of barrels of results. \nIn this world tour of frontier basins\, crustal architecture\, source rock presence and reservoir fairways are explored with direct observations from modern\, long-offset seismic data. The deepwater Gulf of Papua had its crustal model challenged and reinterpreted thanks to long-offset 2D seismic acquisition\, allowing for the imaging of large-scale crustal structures. Beneath the salt of the Scotian Basin\, reservoir fairways are imaged in detail and de-risked thanks to Wide Azimuth Seismic Acquisition\, and further south to the conjugate Orange-Pelotas Basins\, high-resolution 3D and Ultrafar AVO analysis reveals a world-class source rock\, observable and mappable on both sides of the margin\, despite being proven only on one side to date. \nTicket Prices:\nMember (Early Bird): $69.00 \nConcession Member [Retired or Hardship]: $59.00 \nStudent Member: $10.00 \nGraduate Member: $20.00 \nNon-Member: $99.00 \nMember (Non-Early Bird): $79.00 \nEarly bird\, Concession\, Student and Graduate Member pricing ends Thursday (1 week prior) at 5pm (AWST). All ticket sales close at 5pm Tuesday (2 days prior). \n
