SUMMARY:PESA ACT/NSW June Technical Lunch
DESCRIPTION:THE FEDERAL BUDGET 10 MAY 2023\, ITS CONTENTS AND ITS IMPLICATIONS FOR THE ENERGY INDUSTRY\nThe Federal Budget is far from what is contained in the Treasurers Speech\, the associated Ministers Press releases\, the Budget documents themselves and the massive rhetoric that will flow from days after the actual speech in the House. There will be countless hours spent in preparing treatises and marketing documents from the many who feed off the circus and the media who have a vested interested in selling whatever. \nThe reality becomes a lot clearer when those with patience and tenacity actually spend time post delivery of the package of above by delving far deeper and working through both what is included in those documents and just as importantly what is NOT included. \nThis presentation given many days post the circus will address as many issues as become apparent with as much depth as is possible in a 30 minute talk\, both being advanced and provided in common language avoiding jargon. \nThe more publicised issues are going to include the changes to the Petroleum Resource Rent Tax rules and funding for hydrogen and renewable energy sources\, but that means there will be hidden stories for nuclear energy\, major infrastructure support\, graphite production and research into alternatives to lithium-ion batteries. The deliberate intention will be to make this session hum with ideas\, identified issues and positive thoughts of how Australia can “move forward”\, while keeping cost increases down for the masses. \nNotice: previous event on PNG Darai Limestone by Tony Allan cancelled\, apologies for any inconvenience caused. \nAGM Documents\n2023_PESANSW_Annual_Report \nPESA NSW 2022 AGM Minutes Draft \nPESA NSW Branch Committee Nomination Form 2023 \nPESANSWBranch-AGMNotice2023

SUMMARY:PESA WA June Technical lunch talk - Monitoring of the reservoir pressure & saturation changes using Extended Elastic Impedance from time lapse seismic data: Enfield Field
DESCRIPTION:Hosted with thanks to our Platinum sponsor SLB \n  \n \nGold Sponsors Katalyst Data Management\, Applied Geoscience\, Delft Inversion and DUG \n                \n                                                \nand Silver Sponsor Qeye \n \n  \nPESA WA invites you to our technical luncheon on Thursday 15th June\n\n“Monitoring reservoir pressure and saturation changes using extended elastic impedence from time lapse seismic data: Enfield Field\, NW Australia”\nPresented by Sergey Shevchenko\, SIS Exploration Pty Ltd\nThe Extended Elastic Impedance (EEI) concept has been used by the oil industry primarily for lithology and fluid prediction. We present a method of reservoir monitoring that calculates changes in pressure and saturation in a producing reservoir by applying EEI to time-lapse seismic data. The method uses time-lapse seismic difference data rotated to specific EEI χ angles which are optimised for the changes expected in a given reservoir. One angle is found to be appropriate to identify predicted changes in saturation\, using fluid substitution models\, while the other angle is found from rock-physics assumptions or laboratory measurements of fluid-pressure changes. \nOur technique is tested using time-lapse seismic data for the Enfield oil field\, in the North West Shelf\, Australia\, with estimates of optimal EEI rotation angles χ based on log data and Biot-Gassmann modelling for the fluid changes\, and on rock physics models fit to measurements made on core samples for the pressure changes. Reflectivity and inversion domains were used using various approaches to test results qualitatively and quantitively. \nThe final calculated pressure and saturation maps predicted areas where changes in pressure and/or saturation changes were expected. It was successfully tested with two areas of changing the pressure from the well data\, showing that our quantitative results are credible. Additionally\, our results coincide with the Enfield operator’s maps for pressure and saturation predictions. \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  \nRefund Policy: Refunds are only applicable if notified in writing to WA-secretary@pesa.com.au prior to the close of ticket sales. Refunds will be issued to all participants in the case that government regulations prevent the event taking place.

SUMMARY:PESA QLD: AGM and Technical Lunch\, 22nd June : Melbana Energy in Cuba – an exploration success in the Caribbean
DESCRIPTION:This month PESA Queensland welcomes Duncan Lockhart to present a technical luncheon highlighting Melbana Energy’s activities and the complex and fascinating geology of Cuba. \nThe Technical Lunch will be held at the Brisbane Hilton Hotel\, in Room 83 (Level 8). \nThe Annual General Meeting (AGM) for the PESA QLD Branch will be hosted prior to the commencement of the Technical Lunch. \nFor detailed directions\, see explanation below. \nPlease note the Early Bird ticket pricing cut-off times described below. \n\n\n\nPresentation:\nMelbana Energy in Cuba – an exploration success in the Caribbean\n\n\nVenue:\nHilton Hotel Brisbane\, 190 Elizabeth Street\, Brisbane QLD 4000\nRoom 83\, Level 8\n(Detailed directions below)\n\n\nDate & Time:\nThursday\, 22 June 12:15 PM\n\n\n\n  \nPresentation Abstract: \nIn September 2015 Melbana Energy was awarded the Block 9 PSC\, an onshore block on the north coast of Cuba which covers over 2\,344 km2. The block is 140km east of Havana in a proven hydrocarbon system and on trend with the multi-billion barrel Varadero oil field. Cuba currently produces approximately 45\,000 barrels of oil per day and 3 million cubic metres of gas. Oil production meets 50% of the domestic consumption\, with the balance satisfied by imports. Most of the oil industry is currently operated by the national oil company\, CUPET. The Canadian company\, Sherritt International\, has been producing oil in Cuba for over 25 years. \nThe geology of northern Cuba is dominated by complex fold and thrust belt geology which has encapsulated rich source rocks\, fractured carbonate reservoirs\, serpentinitic shales and ophiolites. Seismic data in Block 9 is limited to various vintages of 2D data of generally poor quality. Melbana has drilled two exploration wells to date in Block 9\, the first well Alameda-1 was spudded in September 2021 and drilled to a depth of 4000m. This well encountered continuous oil shows from as shallow as 400m with oil regularly flowing over the shakers while drilling. Several high-pressure zones were encountered whilst drilling reflecting the intersection of separate pressure compartments bounded by various thrust faults. A total of 218m of net log pay was encountered (precluding zones which could not be logged due to adverse hole conditions). A total of 6.4 billion barrels OOIP with 362 mmbbls of P50 prospective resource have subsequently been independently certified at Alameda based on seismic mapping and the well result. The second well Zapato-1 reached a total depth of 3700m. Oil was observed flowing over the shakers at the top of the ophiolite sequence from a fault zone indicating access to a mature oil generative system below the ophiolites\, unfortunately the well reached TD still within the ophiolites\, above the anticipated reservoir section. A review of the gravity and magnetic model is underway to ascertain a more favourable location for a potential Zapato follow up. \nA two well appraisal campaign designed with the prime objective to obtain a measure flow rate of the Alameda numerous discovery zones is on track to spud at the end of June 2023. \n  \n  \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 Wednesday\, 14 June 11:30 PM  after which\, standard pricing will come into effect. \nFinal numbers to venue required by Monday\, 19 June 12:00 PM – To avoid disappointment please register before that date and time. \n  \n\n\n\n\nEarly Bird Ticket Price\nStandard Ticket Price\n\n\n\n\nPESA Members – $55\nNon-Members – $75\nStudent / Retired Members – $30\nPESA Members – $75\nNon-Members – $95\nStudent / Retired Members – $30\n\n\n\n\nRegistrants may elect to book a ‘Talk Only’ ticket below.  Chairs will be made available at the back of the room for members wishing to attend the presentation. \nTalk Only tickets are free of charge\, however\, no refreshments or lunch is included. \n\nPESA QLD 2023 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING\nThe Annual General Meeting (AGM) for the PESA QLD Branch will be hosted prior to the commencement of the Technical Lunch. \nMembers are encouraged to attend the AGM to have their say with the PESA QLD committee. \nPESA QLD are always interested to have active involvement from our membership… and what better way than to take up a position on the PESA QLD Committee!  Interested members who are keen to become a committee member are encouraged to lodge a nomination form (see link below).  Any member is invited to nominate for any of the available roles detailed on the Nomination form.  Any questions\, please email qld-secretary@pesa.com.au \nPlease find below the requisite AGM governance documents for distribution to members\, provided at least 21 days ahead of the AGM as required by the PESA Constitution: \nAgenda AGM 2023\nProxy Form\nMinutes of 2022 AGM\nNomination form\n2022 President’s Report \n\nThe venue location can be accessed by two means: \n1) Entry from Queen Street Mall\nTake the lifts to Level 6\, and walk to the guest lifts located in the centre of the main atrium and take the lift to Level 8.

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT June Technical Luncheon  "A new 3D structural model for the Porgera Region\, PNG Fold Belt: the integration of petroleum and minerals exploration methods"
DESCRIPTION:A new 3D structural model for the Porgera Region\, PNG Fold Belt: the integration of petroleum and minerals exploration methods.\nPresented by: Gareth T. Cooper\, Enigma Energy Services\nWork by: Gareth T. Cooper\, Kevin C. Hill\, Peter Essy\, Mark Haydon & Agnes Pokondepa\n  \nAbstract \n\nThe Porgera Region is a complex strike-slip pull-apart zone located in the central Highlands of PNG. The region sits on the northern margin of fold belt close to the boundary with the Mobile Belt. The region is ~70km NE of the Hides gas field and has been the subject of numerous regional studies by petroleum companies since the early 1970’s. Porgera hosts a gold mine which is one of the richest in the world and lies in a wide valley at an elevation of 2800m surrounded by mountains up to 4000m elevation. The intrusive underlying the Porgera ore-body was emplaced in the earliest Pliocene at the time of maximum compression during orogenesis. \nThe mine has been active for some 30+ years and has been the subject of multiple geological studies over that period. However nearly all studies to date have concentrated on local-scale mapping using methods commonly utilised in the minerals industry. In 2019-2020\, the mine operators\, PJV\, engaged a new study\, this time at a regional-scale and deliberately integrating methods commonly used in the petroleum sector. This included the integration of legacy petroleum data including palynology\, field dips and mapping\, as well as the acquisition of new data including new field transects\, palynology\, pyrolysis-Tmax and the incorporation of these data into thermal modelling and 3D structural modelling software (3D Move). \nThis new regional mapping of the area used high resolution LIDAR in association with field mapping\, analysis of gravity and magnetics data and drilling of 300-500m deep core-holes has allowed development of a detailed 3D structural model. The draft model was used to guide a regional drilling campaign in early 2023 as well as a follow-up sampling program for palynology and pyrolysis. The model also reveals much about previously unknown regional heating events in the Late Cretaceous-Palaeocene as well as the distribution of the Jurassic Om Beds and the Late Cretaceous Chim Formation\, both of which are thermally mature and may have the potential to host deep gas reservoirs. \nThis presentation discusses the methodologies used in the study and the unique integration of minerals and petroleum methods. The resultant model elucidates much about both the Pliocene emplacement of gold-bearing fluids in the area as well as the potential for deep Toro and Chim-aged gas reservoirs within deep structures. \n\n\nEvent Details:\nThursday\,  June 29th\, 2023\nLuncheon: 12 pm for a 12:30 pm start \nPlace: Ayer’s House\, 288 North Tce\, Adelaide \nIncludes a 2-course lunch and drinks \nBookings close 1 pm Monday\, 26th June\nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee. Strictly no walk-ins.

SUMMARY:PESA ACT/NSW July Technical Lunch
DESCRIPTION:Household renewable energy journey\, and more\nWhat is a VPP and how can you be part of one? Can you get electricity off the grid for free\, or get paid for taking it? Can you as an individual trade electricity? What is VTG or VTH\, and how will these revolutionise electricity supply in the future? Why is South Australia so far ahead in the renewables race\, and how was John Howard involved? How will the transition to renewables work in Australia\, and how long will it take? How much does it really cost to run an electric car? What percentage of electricity production is now renewable? \nThese and other questions will be addressed in this discussion of going all electric. Home solar systems provide the means to monitor one’s electricity generation and usage\, at 5 minute intervals. \nComparisons of different periods (days\, seasons\, years) allow the user to evaluate\, for example\, the effect of La Niña on solar production\, winter versus summer\, and the need for backup from the grid\, and to determine what device in your household is sucking up all that electricity. Even if you don’t have a solar system you can optimize your use of solar energy if you want to. Some weird and wonderful data displays from the Australian Energy Market Operator’s website will be shared\, comparing state by state energy generation by power source\, usage and price.

SUMMARY:PESA & ASEG QLD: Lunch Presentation\, 20th July – Randall Taylor
DESCRIPTION:This month PESA and ASEG welcomes Randall Taylor to present a technical luncheon entitled “Recent Exploration in the Timor-Leste Frontier”. \nThe Technical Lunch will be held at the Brisbane Hilton Hotel\, in the Victoria Room. \nFor detailed directions\, see explanation below. \n\n\n\nPresentation:\nRecent Exploration in the Timor-Leste Frontier\n\n\nVenue:\nHilton Hotel Brisbane\, 190 Elizabeth Street\, Brisbane QLD 4000\nVictoria Room\n(Detailed directions below)\n\n\nDate & Time:\nThursday\, 20th July 12:15 PM\n\n\n\n  \nPresentation Abstract: \nRecent Exploration in the Timor-Leste Frontier \nTimor Resources\, has re-commenced onshore hydrocarbon exploration in Timor Leste after a 50-year hiatus. This talk describes the challenges presented by the complex geology and the process of developing an understanding from the regional to the prospect scale. Timor Island is the product of an active continental collision\, which has been studied by numerous academics for decades. Timor Resources has harnessed some of their ideas\, added a few of our own\, and recently acquired 2 seismic surveys and drilled 3 wells in the Suai Sub-Basin on the southern coast\, including a deep “sub-decollement” play\, first proposed in the 1970s. The talk will show the regional structure developed using gravity and outcrop data and then zoom in to the prospect scale for a look at the recent drilling results. \n  \n\nTickets for the Technical Luncheon can be purchased below: \nEarly bird pricing will remain available up until Wednesday\, 12 July 11:30 PM after which\, standard pricing will come into effect. \nFinal numbers to venue required by Monday\, 17 July 12:00 PM – To avoid disappointment please register before that date and time. \n\n\n\n\nEarly Bird Ticket Price\nStandard Ticket Price\n\n\n\nPESA & ASEG Members – $55\nNon-Members – $77\nStudent / Retired Members – $33\nPESA & ASEG Members – $77\nNon-Members – $99\nStudent / Retired Members – $33\n\n\n\n\nThe venue location can be accessed by two means: \n1) Entry from Queen Street Mall\nEnter the lifts located just to the left of Mick O’Malley’s Irish Pub\, and take the lifts to Level 6.  Once you exit the lifts\, the Victoria Room is immediately to the left. \n2) Entry from Elizabeth Street\nEnter the foyer located on 190 Elizabeth Street\, and take the lifts to Level 6 (Main Foyer).  The Victoria Room is located in the back of the main foyer towards the right as you walk past Vintaged Restaurant. \n\n  \n\n\n\n\nKeep track of upcoming PESA QLD Events:\n\nClick here to view PESA QLD Events Calendar on the web\n\n\n\n\nClick here to subscribe to PESA QLD Events by adding it to your Google Calendar \n

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT July Technical Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:A seismic source field trial in the Bass Strait: Testing the impact of several different source configurations on geophysical quality\, received sound\, and direct impact on scallops and lobsters\nPresented by: John Cocker (Beach Energy)\n\n  \nAbstract:\nBeach Energy acquired a seismic source technology field trial in Dec 2021 in the shallow waters (50-80m) of the Bass Strait. The trial consisted of eight source tests acquired along two 2D lines\, including: a full-size array (2480 cu.in.) with Sercel G-GUN II in a wide-tow triple source configuration\, eSourceTM (2098 & 1049 cu. in.)\, reduced size (300\, 700 & 1260 cu.in.)\, and Distributed Source tests including Shearwaters Apparition test (140 & 340 cu.in.). A test of a 70 cu.in. airgun was also recorded during a whale mitigation procedure. The aim of the field trial is to investigate whether any of these source options: \n1. Provide the required geophysical data quality \n2. Significantly alter the received anthropogenic sound levels (SPL and SEL) \n3. Changes the impacts on benthic invertebrates via analysis of scallop and lobster specimens placed on the seafloor \nThis combined data will then be used to determine if any of the alternative source options are suitable replacements for conventional full-sized arrays and if any provide a meaningful reduction to potential impact on marine organisms. \nThe study was performed in conjunction with the Institute for Marine & Antarctic Studies\, Fisheries Research & Development Corporation\, Curtin University\, and the Department of Natural Resources & Environment Tasmania. \nScallop and lobster specimens as a model species for crustaceans and molluscs were placed on the seabed below the full array (triple and single source)\, both eSource arrays and one control location. The specimens were assessed over 6 months for physical damage\, chronic effects and survival\, pH\, refractive index\, total and differential haemocyte cell counts\, DNA damage and biochemistry. Lobsters were also assessed for righting ability. The results will not be available until Q4 2023. Noise loggers were collocated with the specimens to measure received sound. \nThe data processing was completed by Shearwater. The results show that all options result in lower S/N raw shot gathers; but also\, that modern processing algorithms are able to compensate for most of this through noise attenuation\, deblending and designature. eSource (2098 and 1049 cu.in.) and the reduced source size options provide very similar final stack and migrated gather quality to the full array. Both apparition tests (140 & 340 cu.in.) were very similar in 2D stack quality but with slightly lower S/N below 4Hz and above 64Hz. The data quality of the other distributed source tests was better in the shallow but worse in the deep due to poor randomisation achieved. There are differences in gather quality that require further investigation. These results demonstrate that alternative sources and/or smaller volumes have the potential to meet survey objectives whilst reducing impact on marine life. \n  \nEvent Details:\nThursday\, July 27th\, 2023 \nLuncheon: 12 pm for a 12:30 pm start \nPlace: Ayer’s House\, 288 North Tce\, Adelaide \nIncludes a 2-course lunch and drinks \nBookings close Tuesday\, 25th July\nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee.

SUMMARY:PESA ACT/NSW August Technical Lunch
DESCRIPTION:Federal Government False Narrative About Cause of East Coast Gas Supply Shortage\, Gas Price Cap and Gas Reservation\nI have major concerns about the prevalence of misinformation spread by politicians\, leaders at the UN and the media. Evidence-based decision making has been replaced by emotional beliefs\, with politicians and senior bureaucrats spreading false information without being held accountable. The mainstream media prioritises sensational news over evidence-based reporting and avoids conducting in-depth research. The ABC and SBS\, two taxpayer-funded media outlets\, solely presenting one-sided and propagandistic reporting rather than a balanced\, evidence based narrative. \nThe reason for recent high natural gas prices and supply shortages in eastern Australia has falsely been blamed by Anthony Albanese and his Labor Government Ministers on the war in Ukraine. \nGas price increases began before the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the 2022 price spike was caused by local factors. The Federal Government then used the excuse that the gas shortage and higher prices were caused by the war in Ukraine to justify implementation of new legislation that enforced a gas price cap and domestic gas reservation. This presents as a socialist intervention. \nMisinformation is prevalent in politics\, the media and Government discussions about gas prices. Evidence-based facts are overlooked in favour of emotional narratives.\nThe increase in east coast gas prices can be attributed almost solely to a domestic gas supply shortage. That gas supply shortage has been caused by State Government energy policies.\nThe ACCC’s gas report reveals that domestic gas contract prices increased from late 2020 to mid-2021 and the supply outlook from 2022 onwards appears tight.\nThe 2022 Australian Energy Regulator “Gas Markets” report highlights a period of sustained high gas prices and tight supply in east coast gas markets. Factors such as depleting southern gas reserves\, overlapping electricity market dynamics and short-term spot exposure during the higher demand winter period contributed to the increase in gas demand and subsequently gas prices. \nThe blame for the gas supply shortage can be attributed to past and present State Governments in NSW\, Victoria\, SA\, and Queensland who have limited access to new petroleum exploration areas through regulations\, lack of expedited approvals and withholding vast areas prospective for gas exploration.\nThe absence of a coordinated national energy policy\, combined with subsidies for renewable energy projects has resulted in a shortage of reliable\, low-cost base load electricity which in turn has increased electricity prices and gas supply shortages. \nThe false narrative surrounding human-caused climate change has directly led to policies condemning fossil fuels and limiting onshore petroleum exploration. The finance sector’s withdrawal of funding for fossil fuel projects\, the abandonment of support by business groups and the lack of defence by petroleum exploration and production companies has also contributed to the situation. \nContrary to the narrative\, the Australian export LNG projects were not robbing gas from domestic supply. These projects were developed for the existing\, lucrative LNG export market in Asia\, where prices were higher and long-term contracts were more feasible. The small domestic east coast gas markets were adequately supplied by other domestic sources and the large gas reserves associated with LNG projects could not have been sold in Australia due to the small market size.\nThere is an urgent need for a coherent national energy policy incorporating a balanced approach to renewable energy and an orderly transition to ensure a reliable energy supply and mitigate the impact of rising gas and electricity prices.\nLegislative power for petroleum exploration and production in onshore areas\, including State-controlled waters\, is governed by each State and Territory under the Australian Constitution. \nThere has been significant depletion of existing onshore gas fields through production in South Australia\, Victoria\, and Queensland and also in the offshore gas fields Victorian\, South Australia and Tasmania. These gas fields are in many cases approaching the final stages of their production life and with the declining production rates comes increased production costs which is passed on to the consumer in the form of higher gas prices. \nThe lengthy and costly State Government regulatory processes\, community consultations and bureaucratic obstacles faced by petroleum exploration companies have all hindered the addition of a new gas supply. These processes often lead to delays and unnecessary costs which are ultimately either borne by exploration company shareholders or in the case of successful projects are funded by consumers through higher commodity prices. \nNew South Wales (NSW) petroleum exploration was effectively halted in 2011 initially in response to the Government responding to activists claims of the damage caused by the use of fracking. The NSW Government then conducted a review of petroleum exploration resulting in the cancellation of all existing petroleum exploration licenses except for those related to the Santos-controlled coal seam gas project in the Narrabri region. \nThe NSW Government referred to the cancelled licences as “zombie licences” claiming that they had all passed their expiry date or had not met their financial commitments. In fact\, the NSW Government had applied a compulsory moratorium on exploration in 2011 which prevented the titleholders from meeting their financial commitments by conducting exploration activities. \nApplication for development approval of the Narrabri Gas Project was first submitted in 2014 with conditional approval not granted until September\, 2020 – a 6 year process!!! In the meantime NSW has no domestic gas supply and is totally dependent on gas imports from South Australia\, Queensland and Victoria\, a rapidly dwindling gas resource. \nPetroleum exploration and development policies in Victoria\, South Australia\, and Queensland has effectively halted onshore gas exploration and the addition of a new gas supply. Moratoriums and bans on onshore gas exploration and development in Victoria as well as the competitive tendering processes for new exploration areas in South Australia and Queensland have either stopped or greatly reduced gas exploration in those states. The Queensland government has prioritised the release of new areas for coal seam gas and unconventional gas leading to limited opportunities for conventional gas exploration. \nThe demonization of fossil fuels by state governments along with the withdrawal of prospective exploration areas has resulted in a gas supply shortage and increased gas prices on the east coast. Additionally\, the replacement of fossil fuels with heavily subsidized renewable energy sources without a proper transition plan is seen as a contributing factor to the gas supply shortage\, high gas prices\, and electricity grid imbalances. \nThere are major concerns with the long-term impact on the average citizen\, businesses and productivity due to government policies and subsidies that favour renewable energy over fossil fuels.

SUMMARY:PESA WA August Technical Lunch:  Flexible Solutions for both CCS Measurement\, Monitoring\, and Verification (MMV) and Offshore Windfarm Developments
DESCRIPTION:Hosted with thanks to our Platinum sponsor SLB \n  \n \nGold Sponsors Katalyst Data Management\, Applied Geoscience\, Delft Inversion\, DUG and IKON Science \n                \n                                                \n \nand Silver Sponsor Qeye \n \n  \nPESA WA invites you to our technical luncheon on Thursday 17th August\nFlexible Solutions for both CCS Measurement\, Monitoring\, and Verification (MMV) and Offshore Windfarm Developments \nPresented by Andrew Long (PGS) \nMeasurement\, Monitoring\, and Verification (MMV) are essential to Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) projects\, ensuring their effectiveness\, safety\, and regulatory compliance. Precise CO2 emission measurements\, ongoing project performance monitoring\, and independent data verification provide stakeholder confidence in the CCS system’s greenhouse gas reduction\, safe operation\, and prompt issue resolution. \nLikewise\, developing ground models for offshore wind turbine placement demands a comprehensive approach that addresses various geotechnical\, geophysical\, regulatory\, and stakeholder aspects. \nA common element should be that any ‘baseline’ geophysical platform is built to best practice standards for both CCS and Wind projects. For CCS\, accurate subsurface characterization ensures reliable site candidate selection and ranking\, facilitating the deployment of appropriate monitoring technologies post-CO2 injection in a cost-effective manner. Similarly\, high-resolution 3D geophysical data for Wind projects enable the development of an accurate 3D ground model for integrating subsequent geotechnical and geophysical measurements\, reducing the need for costly new surveys when adjusting turbine foundation locations. \nThis talk comprises four stages: \n\nI present AI\, machine learning\, and automation solutions to enhance the petrophysical and geological understanding of near-surface and overburden areas crucial for both CCS containment and Wind projects.\nI outline an efficient workflow for CCS site screening\, focusing on Container and Containment elements.\nI briefly discuss methods for acquiring high-resolution (HR) and ultra-high-resolution (UHR) seismic data cost-effectively\, including suggestions for congested infrastructure areas where traditional seismic surveys are logistically challenging.\nI describe subsurface characterization (both CCS and Wind) and monitoring solutions (for CCS) that leverage innovations from stages 1 and 3.\n\n\nEvent Sponsors: \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).

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT August Technical Luncheon  "Critical Minerals in SA – The road to net zero"
DESCRIPTION:Critical Minerals in SA – The road to net zero\nPresented by: Bronwyn A Camac (Geological Survey of South Australia)\n\n  \nAbstract \n\nFor about 150 years\, the use of petroleum products has driven world economies and is the greatest influence on quality-of-life improvement.\nBefore then\, we burned whatever we could find\, to keep us warm\, to fuel our emerging technologies\, and to cook our food. But most of these fuels could not keep up with population growth. Our forests were being pillaged\, our health declined due to coal pollution and our oceans stripped of whales.\nOur societies turned to the emerging new fuel – oil and its cleaner partner\, natural gas. We found its value more than just a fuel – we could make things from it – plastic\, clothes\, medicines\, fertilisers\, cosmetics\, and the list goes on and on. So\, dependent upon these products\, it becomes difficult to imagine that we can ever do without them.\nBut that time has come\, just as with wood\, coal and whales\, the market has outgrown us\, demanding cleaner fuels and products which has no effect on the earth and its climate.\nThis single most disruptive event of the last 150 years is being addressed in all countries to drive our economies toward net-zero carbon emission. To support net-zero targets\, the market is moving towards new technologies\, such as electric vehicles\, renewable technologies\, space technology\, telecommunication and defence. All of these technologies need critical minerals.\nThis is space where the mineral resource industry and the energy resource industry collide!\nCritical minerals are described by Geoscience Australia as “minerals that are essential to our modern technologies\, economies and national security\, and whose supply chains are vulnerable to disruption.”\nSouth Australia is well-endowed with many of the minerals and metals projected to be in short supply as this energy transition progresses. SA is rich in copper and currently holds 69% of Australia’s copper resource. It is a major producer of mineral sands\, with their associated rare earth elements and is rich in graphite. A state-wide study is currently underway to uncover SA’s full resource potential\, putting us at the forefront of the world’s energy transformation. \n\n\nEvent Details:\nThursday\,  August 24th\, 2023\nLuncheon: 12 pm for a 12:30 pm start \nPlace: Ayer’s House\, 288 North Tce\, Adelaide \nIncludes a 2-course lunch and drinks \nBookings close 1 pm Monday\, 21st August\nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee.

SUMMARY:PESA ACT/NSW September Technical Lunch
DESCRIPTION:Tony Allan – The Darai Limestone\, T-Letter stages and strontium with everything: exploration stratigraphy in the Papuan Basin\, a lab and field perspective.\nNotice: Date change to Tuesday 19th September \nThe Oligo-Miocene Darai Limestone crops out over much of the Papuan Fold Belt in the western Papuan Basin\, so its stratigraphy is critical in developing structural models to target Mesozoic reservoirs. Since its first application in the Muller Range in 1990 by Mobil\, strontium (Sr) dating has been used extensively throughout the Papuan Fold to map the base Darai surface. Most of the isotopic analysis was done at the CSIRO labs in Sydney\, in conjunction with petrographic study of limestones as a QC on Sr ages. Without name-dropping too many species\, the talk will outline how the petrographic and field research revitalised the conventional “T-Letter” foram biostratigraphy and Darai microfacies stratigraphy through its calibation to the Sr data. This has been a close collaborative effort with many exploration companies – so some industry geologists might be named. \nExploration for Tertiary limestone reservoirs in the eastern Papuan Basin was revived by InterOil in the early 2000s\, resulting in the 2009 Antelope gas discovery in a Miocene “reef”. By contrast with the Darai “platform”\, in the east sedimentation in a more rifted margin is reflected in the Tertiary sequence; with localised shallow carbonate deposition contiguous with deeper water carbonate and clastic sedimentation\, and the tectonic overprint from the middle Miocene of foreland  Aure  volcanigenic sediments. Within this setting the stratigraphic record of marker forams (& other calacreous microfssils) is complicated by geological factors including reworking and condensation/non-deposition. As a result\, the “noise free” T-Letter scheme and broader microfacies sequence in the Darai has been important to the exploration search for carbonate reservoirs in the east. \nThis account will touch on lessons relevant to ongoing exploration; (1) some findings on Sr age anomalies and their geological and diagenetic causes that have emerged\, particularly in the search for “reef reservoirs in the eastern Papuan basin\, and (2) potential to refine Tertiary sedimentaion models with the large basinwide petrographic and Sr dataset that captures time-facies information. And some concluding remarks on the Darai exploration legacy for current and future Tertiary basin research on the Australian Margin.

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT September Technical Luncheon  "Cretaceous depositional environment interpretation of offshore Otway Basin cores and wireline logs"
DESCRIPTION:Cretaceous depositional environment interpretation of offshore Otway Basin cores and wireline logs; application to the generation of basin-scale gross depositional environment maps\nPresented by: Chris Cubitt\nDeputy Director Geoscience & Exploration \nGeoscience and Exploration Branch | Energy Resources Division – DEM \nChris.Cubitt@sa.gov.au \n  \n  \nAbstract\n\nGas production from the Inner Otway Basin commenced in the early 2000s but the deep-water part of this basin remains an exploration frontier. Historically\, the understanding of plays in this region were largely model driven and therefore the ground-truthing of depositional environments (DE) and gross depositional environments (GDE) are critical. This aspect has been investigated for the Sherbrook Supersequence (SS) by the integration of legacy wireline and core data\, with regional 2D seismic facies mapping of new and reprocessed data from Geoscience Australia’s 2020 Otway Basin seismic program. Core observations were matched to wireline logs and seismic facies with resulting well based DE interpretations calibrated to seismic resolution Regional GDE intervals. Integration of well and seismic observations lead to the compilation of a basin-wide Regional GDE map for the Sherbrook SS. This GDE map indicates the distribution of Sherbrook SS play elements such as source rock\, seal and reservoir\, especially across the Deep Water Otway Basin where well data is sparse. \n\n\nEvent Details:\nThursday\,  September 28th\, 2023\nLuncheon: 12 pm for a 12:30 pm start \nPlace: Ayer’s House\, 288 North Tce\, Adelaide \nIncludes a 2-course lunch and drinks \nBookings close 1 pm Monday\, 25th August\nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee.

SUMMARY:PESA ACT/NSW October Technical Lunch
DESCRIPTION:Seismic in the 60s\nTwo clapped out vessels\nOne drunken skipper\n100 ton of Nitramon \nAn explosive combination!\nPlus Discussion Forum: The future of the PESA NSW Branch\nPlease complete the membership survey by clicking here \nSummary:\nSet in the early days of marine seismic in Australia\, December 1966 to February 1967 \nI spent 3 months as a summer student. It was a 2 boat survey – both clapped out coastal freighters MV Merino and MV Paul Markson. \nAn incident filled trip. \nBallasting the kerosene filled streamer with lead and gaffer tape at midnight on a pitching deck 30ft above the water with no rails whatsoever (OHS was an unknown acronym). Deck awash with kero which rotted all our footwear (and feet). \nSkipper was a drunk\, Party Chief was an idiot. \n8500 foot streamer cut in half by a freighter because the skipper couldn’t signal properly with his Aldis lamp (he could hardly hold it!). \nStreamer sections blown up because the shooting boat couldn’t keep position. \nStreamer sections bitten by sharks. \nSpanish deckhand almost dead from carbon tetrachloride poisoning because he couldn’t tell anyone what was wrong. \nDrunk found down in the hull complete with wine flagon just before we headed to sea. \nHeading back to Portland in a Force 10 gale knowing that the Sedco 135G had slipped its tow and was somewhere out in front of us. \nAnd to cap it all\, we found that 50% of our powder (about 25 tons) would sometimes not explode so it was jettisoned overboard – 1\,000 yellow canisters bobbing off into the Tasman Sea.

SUMMARY:PESA WA October Technical Lunch:  Why understanding hydrodynamics is critical in petroleum exploration\, appraisal\, development and production.
DESCRIPTION:Hosted with thanks to our Platinum sponsor SLB \n  \n \nGold Sponsors Katalyst Data Management\, Applied Geoscience\, Delft Inversion\, DUG and IKON Science \n              \n                                                \n \nand Silver Sponsor Qeye \n              \n  \nPESA WA invites you to our technical luncheon on Thursday 17th October\nWhy understanding hydrodynamics is critical in petroleum exploration\, appraisal\, development and production. \nPresented by Robert Seggie & Peter van Ruth \n\nWater flow occurs in ALL sedimentary basins from higher pressured to lower pressure areas.  Flow occurs via permeable beds away from meteoric intake areas or from over-pressured mudstones that are de-watering.  Another source of pressure variation is aquifer depletion due to hydrocarbon production\, or aquifer pressurisation due to fluid injection. To understand fluid flow\, pressure must be expressed as over-pressure variation\, the variation in potential\, equating to over-pressure above hydrostatic gradient or head (the height a water column would rise above MSL in a pipe intersecting the point of measurement).  Variation in fluid potential within the aquifer beneath a hydrocarbon field results in a variation in FWL over a field (tilted or stepped contacts).  This is not evident in most fields due to the small size of fields relative to the small variations in potential which are routinely interpreted as measurement error.  However\, when the variation is higher\nthese tilts or steps can be very significant\, due to: \n\nLarge field areas\nFaults causing baffling\nLower permeabilities\nHigher water flows\nHigh density hydrocarbons where minor variation in potential causes\nsignificant tilting.\n\nIn this talk concepts such as overpressure\, potentiometric maps and sections and compartmentalised reservoirs are discussed.  Examples from all over the world are presented along with the impact on failed exploration wells and sub-optimum development plans.  Vertical variation in potential within fields is also discussed. Finally\, publicly available pressure data from the Perth Basin is reviewed and discussed to consider whether Perth Basin Fields are compartmentalised\, or have complexly stepped contacts. \nEvent Sponsors: \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).

SUMMARY:PESA QLD: Lunch Presentation\, 19th October – Brendon Mitchell
DESCRIPTION:This month PESA welcomes Brendon Mitchell to present a technical luncheon entitled: \n“High Value\, Low Cost\, Low Impact Seismic for optimising horizontal drilling”\nThe Technical Lunch will be held at the Brisbane Hilton Hotel\, in room the Victoria Room. \nFor detailed directions\, see explanation below. \n\n\n\nPresentation:\nHigh Value\, Low Cost\, Low Impact Seismic for optimising horizontal drilling\n\n\nVenue:\nHilton Hotel Brisbane\, 190 Elizabeth Street\, Brisbane QLD 4000\nRoom 83 (NOTE CHANGE FROM USUAL ROOM)\n(Detailed directions below)\n\n\nDate & Time:\nThursday\, 19th October 12:15 PM\n\n\n\n  \nPresentation Abstract: \nHigh Value\, Low Cost\, Low Impact Seismic for optimising horizontal drilling \nA proof-of-concept 3D seismic survey was acquired over the Glenaras Gas Pilot earlier this year as a collaboration project between Oceania Geo\, Galilee Energy\, Stryde (nimble nodes)\, and Earth Signal Processing. \nThe Enviro-Pad 3D trial aimed to test the viability of acquiring small footprint 3D seismic surveys using lower cost and lower impact technology to deliver fit for purpose 3D seismic data that can inform fast turnaround well planning and optimisation decisions. The concept of an Enviro-Pad 3D is to provide 3D imaging over a proposed lateral well path faster and cheaper than traditional 3D surface seismic. Recent advances in both source and receiver technology have facilitated higher density surveys with lower operational footprint and lower impact on affected parties. \nAn overview of the design concept\, operational execution\, and initial results will be presented to highlight the multi-faceted benefits the technology brings to the exploitation of unconventional resources and the potential to make seismic commercially and operationally viable where it may not have been otherwise. \n  \n\nTickets for the Technical Luncheon can be purchased below: \nFinal numbers to venue required by Monday\, 16 October 12:00 PM – To avoid disappointment please register before that date and time. \n\n\n\n\nStandard Ticket Price\n\n\n\n\nPESA Members – $55\nNon-Members – $75\nStudent / Retired Members – $30\n\n\n\n\n\nThe venue location can be accessed by two means: \n1) Entry from Queen Street Mall\nTake the lifts to Level 6\, and walk to the guest lifts located in the centre of the main atrium and take the lift to Level 8.

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT October Technical Luncheon The CO2 Storage Resources Management System
DESCRIPTION:The CO2 Storage Resources Management System (SRMS): what it is and how it was applied at Moomba\nJohn Kaldi\nEmeritus Professor & CO2CRC Distinguished Scientist\nUniversity of Adelaide \nPaul Lyford\nReserves & Resources Manager\nSantos Limited \n  \nAbstract\n\nThis talk aims to create awareness of the recently published Guidelines for Applications of the CO2 Storage Resources Management System (SRMS). The SRMS was first published in 2017 and is now sponsored by the world’s foremost industry-focused professional societies\, including SPE\, AAPG\, SEG\, SPWLA\, EAGE\, SPEE and WPC. The Guidelines were released in June 2022 and are available from the SPE bookstore. Although a voluntary system\, the intent is that regulators\, government departments\, and financiers will be able to draw upon the experience of managing petroleum resources to advise on the management of carbon dioxide storage resources. \nThe SRMS is modelled on the Petroleum Resource Management System (PRMS). This was a deliberate choice aimed at making the development of storage resources clearer by drawing parallels with the well-known and well-understood process of maturing petroleum resources. The need to show that injected CO2 can be contained in a geologic formation is the key difference between exploring for CO2 storage resources and exploring for petroleum accumulations. \nAccording to the SRMS\, a CO2 storage resource is defined as the quantity (mass or volume) of CO2 that can be stored in a geologic formation. This storage can be in geologic structures (e.g.\, an anticline) or in regionally extensive dipping geologic formations. The storage mechanisms are geologic (structural and stratigraphic)\, residual\, solubility\, and mineral trapping\, and an inherent consideration in any storage resources is that displaced fluids (e.g.\, brine or hydrocarbons) are managed. \nA significant case study from Santos’ Moomba CCS project in the Cooper Basin is provided to demonstrate incorporation of SRMS in storage resource assessments. The Moomba project is the world’s first commercial CCS project to incorporate the SRMS system and to include the CO2 resource in a company’s annual report.   As more experience is gained through the development of commercial projects such as Moomba\, the SRMS and Guidelines undoubtedly will be updated. \n  \n\nEvent Details:\nThursday\,  October 26th\, 2023\nLuncheon: 12 pm for a 12:30 pm start \nPlace: Ayer’s House\, 288 North Tce\, Adelaide \nIncludes a 2-course lunch and drinks \nBookings close 1 pm Monday\, 23rd August\nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee. Strictly no walk-ins.

SUMMARY:PESA ACT/NSW Melbourne Cup Lunch
DESCRIPTION:Melbourne Cup and oil price prediction lunch\nJoin us in watching the race that stops the nation! A Calcutta and raffle will be held followed by a presentation on future oil price trends. See you there! \nMELBOURNE CUP SWEEP AND CALCUTTA PROCESS \nDue to the smaller groups of attendees and in an effort to increase interest in the Calcutta aspects of our price Prediction Day/Melbourne Cup our auctioneer\, Andy Rigg and the team have come up with an amended set of Rules to make the day more competitive and fun. The new rules of the front end of the Calcutta are as follows: \nEvery person registered and attending on the day of the meeting (including speakers) receives an option to purchase a ticket in the PESA Melbourne Cup (Sweep);\nEvery person above then has the choice to either exercise the option and purchase a ticket in the sweep for $40 or sell the option to the highest bidder\, who must then exercise the option (i.e. and pay the $40 to the auction team);\nThe price paid to buy an option goes to the original option holder;\nThe $40 goes to auction team as a pot for the race to the distributed between first\, second and third horses;\nWith 24 horses the pot should be $960;\nThe names of the persons exercising the options will be inserted into a hat and then drawn against horses drawn out of another hat;\n1/ If the number of exercised options is equal to the number of starters in the Melbourne Cup\, then every exercised option will receive a horse in the sweep;\n2/ If the number of exercised options is less than the number of starters\, then all the names of the registered persons attending will go back into the draw for the remaining horses;\n3/ If the number of exercised options is greater than the number of starters\, then not all exercised option owners will receive a horse in the sweep;\nOnce the owners of all the horses in the field are known\, then the call of the card and the normal Calcutta bidding process can begin as usual based on the declared pot. \nBest advice is to bring along some cash (no credit card facilities available in the Adams Room)\, a willingness to have a lot of fun and front up at the Masonic Club (also known as the Castlereagh Boutique Hotel) on Tuesday 7 November 2023 and get together with all your old friends for a great days entertainment.

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT November Technical Luncheon Coorikiana Sandstone Play\, Cooper Basin region
DESCRIPTION:Coorikiana Sandstone Play\, Cooper Basin region\nCarmine Grasso \nSouth Australia’s Department for Energy and Mining (DEM) \n  \nAbstract\n\nPetroleum exploration of the Cooper/Eromanga basin commenced in 1954 with the granting of an exploration licence to Santos\, the dominant focus for operators being gas resources of the deeper Permian reservoirs of the Cooper Basin\, which are overlain by the younger shallower Eromanga Basin. However\, a recent industry focus to specifically target the shallower reservoirs\, viz.\, Coorikiana Sandstone of the Eromanga Basin\, has yielded rewarding outcomes\, thus adding to the Cooper/Eromanga basin reputation as Australia’s most prolific onshore oil and gas basin. \nThe early Cretaceous Coorikiana Sandstone has been proven to be a bona fide exploration\, appraisal and development target in the South Australian sector of the Cooper/Eromanga basin. This presentation of the play is aimed at providing explorers with a better understanding of the geology and potential importance of these regressive marine shoreface sandstone reservoirs. Recent activity in the South Australian portion of the Cooper/Eromanga basin has proven successful via low-cost shallow drilling campaigns\, focusing on delivering additional production rate and reserves for both oil and gas. These positive results in the Coorikiana Sandstone have not only placed the spotlight on this formation as a legitimate hydrocarbon target but it has also increased our knowledge on the importance of understanding the value of shallow hydrocarbon plays in the Eromanga Basin. \n  \n\nEvent Details:\nThursday\,  November 23rd\, 2023\nLuncheon: 12 pm for a 12:30 pm start \nPlace: Ayer’s House\, 288 North Tce\, Adelaide \nIncludes a 2-course lunch and drinks \nBookings close 1 pm Monday\, 20th November\nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee.

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT CHRISTMAS 2023 PESA LUNCHEON DECEMBER
DESCRIPTION:CHRISTMAS 2023 PESA LUNCHEON DECEMBER\nPresented by: Dave Grybowski\, Consultant\nAbstract – \nIf you missed David’s double-header luncheon talk of October last year comprising Cry Me A River and the world premiere of The Project – A Play About Not Working Together\, here’s your second shot at the Christmas Cracker. This December\, PESA SA/NT is paying David $1\,000\,000 to return with another blockbuster. Before dessert\, David will lead a joint discussion on The Books That Hooked Me – an investigation of the childhood books and collectables that turned his head toward geology. Luncheoneers will be invited to share their experience. How can we turn those young brains we babysit into earth scientists and engineers with great Christmas gifts? Specifically\, the challenge of making engineering remotely interesting to a kid compared to all the neat things geological.\nAfter dessert\, there will be a thrilling slideshow on The Role of Toilet Paper. The Chinese invented toilet paper in the 6th Century after discovering gunpowder was much too powerful and what to do with all those books after inventing printing eight centuries earlier? David will show a great variety of toilet paper dispensers with video of how well they don’t work. Naturally\, there will be a tie-up with Christmas at the end\, and remember\, paper beats rock\, any day. \n  \nEvent Details:\nThursday\, December 14th\, 2023\nLuncheon: 12 pm for a 12:30 pm start \nPlace: Ayer’s House\, 288 North Tce\, Adelaide \nIncludes a 3-course lunch and drinks \nTickets: \nStudent Members – $25 \nMembers – $50 \nNon-members – $100 \n  \nBookings close 1 pm Monday\, December 11th.\nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee. Strictly no walk-ins.

SUMMARY:PESA ACT/NSW February Twilight Talk
DESCRIPTION:Onshore Gippsland CSG Potential – Myth or Massive?\nThe onshore Gippsland hydrocarbon province has always been a poor cousin to the prolific offshore discoveries of gas and oil. It has been\, however\, the powerhouse of Victoria driven by the huge open-cut brown coal deposits in the Latrobe Valley. Following conventional gas discoveries in the Strzelecki Group at Trifon\, Gangell and Wombat\, attention turned to the shallower\, but deeper than the mined seams\, Traralgon brown coals as candidates for methane extraction from immature\, wet lignite. \nEarly test drilling was carried out in 2005\, but when Exxon entered the area in 2012\, the press perception of easily extracted gas gained widespread publicity in the national press. This presentation describes the technical history of exploration for brown coal CSG\, compared with the public perception of its potential and with the added complication of Victorian Government reaction and legislation.

SUMMARY:PESA WA February Technical Lunch:  Possible compartmentalisation of the Kidson Sub-basin from new geophysical data\, and regional projects in WA
DESCRIPTION:Hosted with thanks to our Platinum sponsor SLB: \n  \n \nGold Sponsors Katalyst Data Management\, IKON Science and DUG: \n                   \n  \nand Silver Sponsors Applied Geoscience\, Delft and Qeye: \n                     \nPESA WA invites you to our technical luncheon on Thursday 15th February.\nPossible compartmentalisation of the Kidson Sub-basin from new geophysical data\, and regional projects in WA. \nPresented by Alex Zhan (DMIRS: Geological Survey and Resource Strategy Division) \n\nThe Kidson Sub-basin of the southern Canning Basin has long been considered as a relatively simple sag deepening into its depositional axis\, presumably in the central part of the sub-basin. This structural model is based on limited seismic coverage and well intersections near the flanks of the sub-basin\, and is here tentatively revised following integrated mapping with new regional data.  The data integration reveals a possible east-northeast oriented basement ridge with a structural amplitude up to 1000 m in the central part of the Kidson Sub-basin. This ridge possibly divides the Kidson Sub-basin into two distinct parts and potentially is a significant feature with extensive implications for hydrocarbon\, CO2 sequestration\, natural hydrogen\, helium and mineral prospectivities of the sub-basin. Although the basement ridge is supported by regional changes in depositional facies and marginal seismic data\, the existence of such elevated feature remains highly uncertain in the absence of a seismic profile across the ridge. Further work is required to confirm its presence and de-risk exploration efforts. \nEvent Sponsors: \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).

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT February Luncheon- Revisiting the rocks and seismic discovers turbidites and a new exploration play in the Penola Trough\, Otway Basin\, South Australia
DESCRIPTION:Revisiting the rocks and seismic discovers turbidites and a new exploration play in the Penola Trough\, Otway Basin\, South Australia\nSharon Tiainen\, South Australia’s Department for Energy and Mining (DEM)\, and Rob Kirk\, Consultant \n  \nAbstract\n\nThis rock-based and seismic-backed turbidite interpretation provides an alternative to the current alluvial channel/crevasse splay model for reservoir deposition and as such presents a new exploration play. Further the reservoirs immediate lateral association with gas/oil-prone source rocks and seals in the clay-rich lithologies potentially provide for stratigraphic trapping in addition to the previously targeted fault-controlled structural traps. By revisiting legacy core and seismic data\, and integrating and iterating across multiple disciplines\, a new and fertile turbidite exploration play has been identified. \n\n  \n  \nEvent Details:\nThursday\,  February 29th\, 2024\nLuncheon: 12 pm for a 12:30 pm start \nPlace: Ayer’s House\, 288 North Tce\, Adelaide \nIncludes a 2-course lunch and drinks \nBookings close 1 pm Monday\, 26th February 2024 \nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee.

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT March Luncheon- Hydrogen Gas Storage Prospects in South Australian Petroleum Basins
DESCRIPTION:Hydrogen Gas Storage Prospects in South Australian Petroleum Basins\nMarch Bunch\,University of Adelaide \n  \nAbstract\n\nSouth Australia hosts two petroleum production basins that are also expected to play a role in Geological Carbon Sequestration (GCS).  Each hosts CO2 disposal operations at differing scales.  Previous studies have demonstrated sealing capacities bounding structural closures to viable reservoir beneath the threshold depth for sustaining supercritical CO2 sufficient to accommodate millions of tonnes of CO2 annually.  Another prospective use for these reservoir systems has emerged: Underground Hydrogen Storage (UHS).  UHS will provide a secure\, scalable way to accommodate excess hydrogen production and fill temporary supply shortfall\, thereby stabilising the price of energy as the transition unfolds.  Hydrogen is a gas under all viable subsurface conditions so is invasive\, mobile and of low mass density.  Sealing capacity to hydrogen gas is approximately equivalent to that of methane meaning closures to natural gas fields should be viable for temporary hydrogen storage.  However\, there are other considerations such as how prone a containment system would be to hydrogen losses by degraded integrity under injection-production stress\, dissolution\, chemical reactions or microbial consumption.  This study evaluates viable UHS fairways within each basin at the helicopter-view scale.  The following factors are considered: hydrodynamic modification of closure; sealing unit thickness and capacity; a threshold depth that is both as shallow as possible but deep enough to limit microbial hydrogen consumption whilst ensuring a competitive hydrogen mass density.  When these factors are considered together\, the most prospective fairways are revealed that correspond with a subset of known petroleum field closures to proven reservoir intervals. \n\n  \n  \nEvent Details:\nThursday\,  March 21st\, 2024\nLuncheon: 12 pm for a 12:30 pm start \nPlace: Ayer’s House\, 288 North Tce\, Adelaide \nIncludes a 2-course lunch and drinks \nBookings close 1 pm Monday\, 18th March 2024 \nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee.
