SUMMARY:PESA ACT/NSW July Technical Lunch
DESCRIPTION:PESA NSW July Technical Meeting\nFinding new sources of gas to meet demand for NSW\nNSW business and retail consumers require approximately 120 PJ of natural gas per year. Historically\, gas supply has relied on traditional suppliers in the Cooper Basin\, South Australia\, the Gippsland Basin\, and Victoria along with AGL Energy’s Camden Gas Project (5% of NSW requirements)\, to supply NSW’s gas needs. The role of natural gas in transforming to net zero in NSW is poorly understood whilst the gas markets attempt to avoid gas shortages as both Gippsland and Copper Basin fields decline below critical thresholds. \nThe recently announced Labour Government’s Future Gas Strategy is the latest in a long line of policies/statements/regulations attempting to promote new gas field development against a backdrop of declining fossil fuel investment and public sentiment. \nThe talk will examine a number of sedimentary basin in NSW including conventional and coal seam gas projects in the Sydney\, Gloucester and Gunnedah Basins through the author’s unique perspective on what to look for and assess these project’s key technical risks in an attempt to explain where NSW’s next gas supply could come from.

SUMMARY:PESA QLD: Lunch\, 11 July : Analogues for subsurface characterization for the Energy Transition - Prof. Simon Lang
DESCRIPTION:Due to popular demand\, this event has moved to a larger room and now more tickets are available! \nThis month PESA Queensland welcomes one of the recent Australian Geoscience Council National Geoscience Champions\, Professor Simon Lang to present a technical luncheon on how having robust models of depositional systems will be as important as ever through the energy transition\, or as Simon says…Geology matters! \nThe Technical Lunch will be held at the Brisbane Hilton Hotel\, in Room 83 (Level 8). \nFor detailed directions\, see explanation below. \nPlease note the Early Bird ticket pricing cut-off times described below. \n\n\n\nPresentation:\nAnalogues for subsurface characterization for the energy transition\n\n\nVenue:\nHilton Hotel Brisbane\, 190 Elizabeth Street\, Brisbane QLD 4000\nQueen Ballroom\, Level 5\n(Detailed directions below)\n\n\nDate & Time:\nThursday\, 11 July 12:15 PM\n\n\n\nPresentation Abstract: \nThe energy transition over the next few decades will provide challenges to all geoscientists who will need to extend the skills and lessons learned from fossil fuel exploration\, development and production to carbon sequestration and utilization (CCUS)\, conventional and H2 gas storage\, sediment-hosted copper\, uranium and lithium exploration\, and related hydrological and geotechnical issues. \nTypically high quality and abundant data is mostly available where existing fields occur (seismic\, wells\, dynamic data)\, but data will be sparser where we need to undertake new geological studies to support the energy transition. To infill the scale-gap between seismic and wells\, all the way down to core and pore-level\, we need to deploy appropriate analogues for the tectonic\, climatic and accommodation/sediment supply regimes. \nThis presentation will focus on depositional systems and their subsurface reservoirs/seals/baffles\, and how analogues from seismic\, well data\, producing fields\, outcrops and modern depositional systems can help constrain the uncertainties involved with subsurface geo-modelling\, that will still be needed to develop the new energy resources needed for the energy transition. \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 Tuesday\, 2 July 11:30 PM  after which\, standard pricing will come into effect. \nStandard ticket pricing will be available until Monday\, 8 July 12:00 PM – To avoid disappointment please register before this time. \nIn recognition of Professor Lang’s recent award of the AGC National Geoscience award\, PESA is pleased to announce that for this lunch\, all members of AGC Member Organisations (MOs) will be eligible for member ticket prices. \n\n\n\n\nEarly Bird Ticket Price\nStandard Ticket Price\n\n\n\n\nAGC MO Members – $55\nNon-Members – $75\nStudent / Retired Members – $30\nAGC MO Members – $75\nNon-Members – $95\nStudent / Retired Members – $30\n\n\n\n\nLate ticket sales up to Wednesday\, 10 July 12:00PM will be available at $95 for all tickets – subject to availability. Please note dietary requirements can not be guaranteed for late tickets.  \n\n  \nThe venue location can be accessed by two means: \n1) Entry from Queen Street Mall\nTake the lifts to Level 5. \n2) Entry from Elizabeth Street\nEnter the foyer located on 190 Elizabeth Street\, and take the lifts to Level 5 (Functions). \n  \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\nClick here to subscribe to PESA QLD Events by adding it to your Google Calendar\n\n\n\n

Based on publicly available data\, at 1 million tonnes per annum the Project is sufficiently sized to capture and permanently store the emissions associated with the onshore Perth basin gas projects and the Cockburn Dongara quicklime facility. \n\nThe CHCCS operation enables the production of blue hydrogen and ammonia with the proposed hydrogen production technology integrating the production of green hydrogen/ammonia. Importantly the Project will be designed to incorporate the future supply of hydrogen into the WA domestic market.

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 SA/NT Branch July Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Exploration for radioactive waste repositories near urban areas\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMarkus Häring\nHäring Consulting \nAbtract\nSave long term storage of nuclear waste is required even in countries without nuclear power plants. Switzerland produces about one third of its power with nuclear energy. The volume of high- medium- and low-level radioactive waste of over sixty years of production is in the same order as toxic heavy metal waste from industry and consumption. Radioactive waste has a precisely determined half-life and can be stored and monitored in controlled containments. In contrast\, heavy metal waste is diffusely distributed\, is not inventoried\, and is of indefinite toxicity.\nNagra\, the Swiss cooperative for the disposal of radioactive waste has explored for a suitable location in various rock formations throughout Switzerland. After forty years of exploration\, a suitable site has been found that is not only geologically safe\, but also meets all political requirements.\nWhen it is possible to find a suitable site for nuclear waste in a country with nine million inhabitants that is smaller than the Eyre Peninsula and on top is located in a tectonically active region\, it should be feasible to find a safe storage location in South Australia. \n  \nEvent Details:\nThursday\, 25th July 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\, 22nd July 2024 \nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee. Strictly no walk-ins.

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT Branch August Luncheon- Thursday 15
DESCRIPTION:2024 Birdsall-Dreiss Distinguished Lecturer\nDr. Ben Rostron\nProfessor Emeritus of Earth & Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Alberta\n\nAbstract:\nGeology and hydrogeology at AQUISTORE: Canada’s first CO2 storage project associated with a commercial-scale coal-fired power plant The Aquistore research project is part of SaskPower’s Boundary Dam Integrated Carbon Capture and Storage project in Estevan\, Saskatchewan\, Canada. Carbon dioxide is captured from the Boundary Dam coal-fired power generation station and transported via underground pipeline to both the Weyburn oil field for EOR\, and to a 3400 m deep injection well at Aquistore. Initial CO2 injection at Aquistore took place in April 2015\, and through August 2023 more than 500\,000 tonnes have been injected. Geology and hydrogeology have played a key role in the entire project using both pre-existing and newly-acquired data. Hydrogeological characterization efforts were divided into four parts: regional hydrogeological and hydrochemical mapping of the site; hydraulic characterization of the storage zone during drilling/testing of the 3400m deep injection and nearby 3400m deep observation well; installation of an extensive shallow groundwater monitoring network; and ongoing hydrogeological and hydrochemical monitoring of the shallow groundwater in the area. All of the geological and hydrogeological characterization results indicate strongly favourable conditions for geological storage at the site: there are no significant faults in the immediate area of the storage site; the regional sealing formation is continuous in the area; the reservoir is not adversely affected by knolls on the surface of the underlying Precambrian crystalline basement; and the shallow groundwater and soil gas horizons do not appear to be hydraulically connected to the deep injection horizons in the subsurface. These results were subsequently used for project planning\, risk assessment\, and permitting of the site; demonstrating the overall storage integrity; and for Measurement\, Monitoring\, and Verification of CO2 storage for regulatory and public assurance. This talk will highlight some of the geology and hydrogeology results from Aquistore and provide an update on a couple of the more interesting outcomes of the project thus far.\n\n  \nEvent Details:\nThursday\, 15 August 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\, 12th August 2024 \nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee.

SUMMARY:PESA ACT/NSW August Technical Lunch
DESCRIPTION:PESA NSW August Technical Meeting\nPresentation by AEMO\nAEMO are a Federal Government body established to monitor\, report on and manage with another Government Body and some of the Government finance arms the entire Australian energy market. People have no real idea just how massively complicated the Grid actually is and until AEMO became active in seeking to educate Australians just how important their role is\, especially on the East Coast\, the Grid was something of a Black Hole manipulated by the political elements of our society. AEMO has issued in its two recent Reports to Parliament (published widely) extremely worrying determinations that the East Coast of Australia is most likely going to suffer energy black-outs in the coldest and hottest months of 2025 through 2027. Our speaker will be addressing these critical issues along with the role gas will play in filling holes during downturns in electricity generation.

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:PESA SA/NT Branch September Luncheon- 26 September
DESCRIPTION:Salt Cavern storage potential of the Polda Basin\, South Australia\nGlenn Toogood\, entX\, and Tim Rady\, Geomorph Energy\n\nThe Polda Basin is a Neoproterozoic to Jurassic sedimentary basin\, extending from the Great Australian Bight to the central Eyre Peninsula\, South Australia. It has previously been explored for petroleum\, uranium\, coal\, groundwater\, base metals\, potash and diamonds. There has been renewed interest in the Polda Basin for its underground gas storage potential in salt caverns\, given that Mercury-1 encountered >1200m of massive halite within Neoproterozoic red beds in the central offshore basin.\nentX Limited were granted Gas Storage Exploration Licences (GSEL) 781 and 784 and have been actively studying the basin to assess the likelihood of the proven offshore salt extending onshore\, where it may be engineered into caverns for underground gas storage (UGS) sites. UGS can provide gigawatt-scale storage of H2 gas and significantly reduce the levelized cost of storage. Such an asset would provide key advantages to H2 project concepts\, including DRI green steel from magnetite\, green ammonia and biofuels.\nTo assess the prospectivity for salt onshore and correlate the stratigraphy across the basin\, entX have taken a multi-disciplinary approach\, reviewing all available data and literature and integrating seismic reprocessing\, ICP-MS/OES and XRF analysis\, visual core and cuttings interpretation\, core density measurements\, spectral scanning and gravity forward modelling. Following this work\, the onshore Polda Basin has emerged as highly prospective for both salt and natural hydrogen. This talk will summarise the technical work undertaken\, new insights about the stratigraphy and plans for future data acquisition.\n\nEvent Details:\nThursday\, 26 September 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\, 23rd September 2024 \nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee. Strictly no walk-ins.

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 ACT/NSW October Technical Lunch
DESCRIPTION:PESA NSW September Technical Meeting\nMelbana in Cuba: the Amistad-1 success story\nMelbana Energy drilled the Alameda-1 discovery well in onshore Cuba in 2021.  By 2022 the discovery was independently certified by McDaniel (A Canadian based Reserves Certifier with extensive experience in Cuba) to contain over 5 billion barrels of oil in place (best estimate) and 267 million barrels of recoverable oil (best estimate). \nIn 2023 Melbana followed up the Alameda-1 well with the successful Amistad-1 appraisal well which was designed to test the uppermost sheet of reservoirs in the Alameda field (Unit 1A\, 1B\, 2 and 3). \n\nUnit 1A recovered 11.7° API oil with 3\,783 cP viscosity at surface from a 63 metre MD interval starting from 445 metres MD. Although flow rates at surface were not established 40 barrels of oil flowed unassisted to surface (through a 32/64” choke)\, exceeding expectations.\nUnit 3 intercepted 200 metres updip and 500 metres to the south of the Alameda-1 intercept and confirmed moveable oil of a similar quality to Unit 1A. Testing indicated the potential to flow at ~750 bopd. The Unit 2 DST did not demonstrate moveable hydrocarbons to surface at the location tested.\nUnit 1B recovered 19.4° API oil with 5.7 cP viscosity at surface from a 70 metre TVD perforated section – less than 20% of the total Net Pay for Unit 1B (when incorporating fractures). Stabilised unassisted flow rate to surface of 1\,235 bopd measured over 12 hours on a 36/64” choke\, peaking at 1\,903 bopd.\n\nLogged Net Pay for the entire Amistad Formation is 346 metres TVD using 9% porosity\, 50% Sw and 40% VSh cutoffs this  net pay increases to 615 metres when the highly fractured limestones are incorporated (45% of the gross interval). Flow from the fractured interval has been proven by acquisition of production logs validating the incorporation of fractures into the net pay equation. \nUnit 1B has now been completed for future production\, whilst Units 1A and 3 have been suspended for potential future development and production. \nIn March 2024 McDaniel provided a resource update on the Unit 1B; \n\n46 MMbbls (P50) Contingent Resources – Development Pending in the eastern section of the greater Alameda field in the vicinity of the existing wells.\n90 MMbbls (P50) Prospective Resources of assigned in the western part of the field to reflect the uncertainty associated with being away from the existing wells. However\, McDaniels assigned a 70% chance of discovery to the prospective resource reflecting the low- risk nature of this area (given it is updip from the existing discoveries within the field). The risk associated with this area is based on reservoir deliverability.\n\nA preliminary field development plan is being developed for exploitation of Unit1B and an additional two wells focussing purely on production from Unit1B are being planned with the aim of initiating international oil export from Cuba.

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT Branch October Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:An emerging new Petroleum System with world-class plays in the \nTorres Sub-Basin\, Offshore Papua New Guinea \nTim Rady1 and John Chambers2  \n1 Geomorph Energy \n2Larus Energy Limited \n\nABSTRACT\nThe Papuan Basin is the only basin with production in Papua New Guinea but is relatively unexplored for a typical Australian Continental Margin Mesozoic basin. It hosts the Kutubu Oil Field Developments and the PNG LNG project\, as well as several gas fields that are planned to be developed in the coming years\, but its southeastern extension\, the Torres Sub-Basin\, remains undrilled. Modern proprietary and regional multi-client seismic data in the offshore Torres Sub-Basin is now revealing an active Petroleum system with a generating Late Cretaceous Source rock and three main identified play types: \n\nMiocene deep-water clastics in a large submarine Miocene to Pliocene foldbelt\nPinch-out plays of Miocene to Pliocene age against a basement high\nPalaeogene carbonate build-ups on basement highs\n\nThis presentation will focus on the Miocene to Pliocene submarine foldbelt plays within the Larus Energy-operated PPL579 license area that was covered by the Nanamarope 3D broadband PSDM seismic survey (acquired in 2023 by Larus Energy and Searcher). The pinch-out play is within the recently awarded Larus Energy-operated PPL695 license in the foreland basin south of the foldbelt\, while TotalEnergies is proposing to test the Palaeogene carbonate play with the Mailu-1 well in 2025. \nThe Nanamarope 3D seismic provides high-resolution images of large-scale submarine fan complexes\, deposited during the Mid-Miocene\, linked to active tectonism and the formation of the proto–Owen Stanley Range. The images suggest significant reworking of these turbidite systems by bottom currents into likely high reservoir quality contourite deposits with a wide spectrum of features formed during synchronous and asynchronous interaction of turbidity flows and bottom current activity. It is observed that bottom currents provide a mechanism to redistribute coarser-grained material up-slope and beyond the limits of the traditional turbidite fairway. \nThe new 3D seismic has allowed Larus to complete detailed structural mapping\, update GDE interpretations\, identify evidence for hydrocarbon migration and integrate petroleum systems and seismic synthetic forward modelling to derisk the prospectivity. Larus Energy is planning on drilling the giant Nanamarope Prospect in 2025 which\, if successful\, will open a large new play fairway for exploration and development and provide a much-needed revenue source for the nation of Papua New Guinea \n\nEvent Details:\nThursday\, 24 October 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\, 21st October 2024 \nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee.

SUMMARY:PESA WA November 21st Evening Talk: Top seal and compartmentalisation in the Kingia Play\, implications for porosity preserving plays.
DESCRIPTION:PESA WA invites you to a technical Evening Event Thursday 21st November.\nTop Seal and Compartmentalisation in the Kingia Play\, implications for porosity preserving Plays. \nPresented by Alex Fuerst (Molyneux Advisors) \nIn the Kingia play of the North Perth Basin\, significant compartmentalisation is observed across the basin and within individual fields\, despite the sand-on-sand juxtaposition. This compartmentalisation manifests in both pressure and phase (gas/water) variations. Cemented fractures are observed near fault zones in Perth Basin wells. This results in decreased permeability near faults\, as evidenced by local wells in the Perth Basin. \nSEM images show fractures within grains of grain coated sands are sufficient to serve as nucleation sites for quartz cementation. In contrast\, within the Irwin River Coal Measures (IRCM)\, the grain surfaces alone provide sufficient sites for cementation. The IRCM sands exhibit permeabilities that are characteristic of seals\, with samples displaying quartz cementation\, kaolin cementation\, or a combination of both. \nThe implications for play risk / play maps are significant. Shallower Kingia penetrations face an unproven top seal due to the less cemented IRCM\, potentially explaining the multiple shallower exploration failures. At greater depths\, the presence of more complex faulting may enhance fault seal integrity and lead to more intricate trap configurations. However\, this also likely increases development complexity due to reservoir compartmentalization. The observed improvement in IRCM sealing capacity with depth suggests broader implications for exploring deeper grain-coated plays\, allowing for a wider range of facies to be considered as potential seals. \n  \nTimings for the event: \nDate: Thursday 21st November\, 2024 \nVenue: The Shoe Bar\, Yaga Square\, Perth \nTime: 6pm – 8pm (Perth time) \n  \n\nPESA Members:                                $25.00 (PESA Members must Log on to the PESA website to purchase) \nNon-members:                                 $50.00 \nPESA Students Members:              Free (registration is essential)

Following on from this\, seven companies have lodged over 40 applications for PELs targeting natural hydrogen over the State?s basins and crystalline basement provinces. PEL 687 is the first licence in Australia targeting natural hydrogen and was granted to first movers Gold Hydrogen Pty Ltd in July 2021 over Yorke Peninsula and Kangaroo Island. The second licence (PEL 691) was granted to H2EX in June 2022 over eastern Eyre Peninsula. An update will be given with respect to current exploration activities in both active licences and with reference to the current understanding of natural hydrogen prospectivity across South Australia. \n\nEvent Details:\nThursday 28th November 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\, 25th November 2024 \nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee.

SUMMARY:PESA ACT/NSW Christmas Party
DESCRIPTION:PESA NSW & SPE NSW Christmas Party\nPHILIPPINES GEOLOGY AND PETROLEUM POTENTIAL \nThe petroleum potential of the Philippines has long been regarded by “industry experts” as average at best. The Philippines is a country with active crustal plate movements\, subduction zones\, regional wrench faults and active volcanoes located on the western edge of the Circum-Pacific “Ring of Fire”. \nGeologically\, the Philippines is the eastern rifted edge of Asia\, which was initially separated by rifting and the development of the South China Sea commencing in the Eocene. Initial rifting resulted in the deposition of an Eocene clastic section\, dominantly non-marine with extensive coal development. \nThe appearance of oceanic crust in the late Oligocene initiated the drift phase with development of extensive barrier and pinnacle limestone reefs on the upthrown sides of the large normal faults created by rifting. These Oligocene to Early Miocene reefs created the reservoir for many of the large gas fields discovered to date\, eg Malampaya\, which largely sourced the gas from the underlying coal measures. About 10 million years ago the Asian\, Pacific and Australian crustal plates collided creating compression\, subduction\, regional wrench faults and volcanism. This tectonic activity caused regional uplift\, particularly in the west of the Philippines centred on east Palawan and deposition of Early-Mid Miocene sedimentary deposits\, dominated by an extensive deep water marine clastic section with excellent quality sandstone reservoirs. Waxy oils waxy with associated gas are the main hydrocarbon discoveries. These hydrocarbons have been sourced by both marine and non-marine organic matter. \nThe Late Miocene to present day sedimentary section is dominated by a thick section of marine marls and limestone reefs with associated volcanism adjacent areas of plate to subduction. The Tertiary to Recent geology of the Philippines is very similar to that recorded in Indonesia\, Thailand\, Vietnam and parts of offshore China. The Philippines experienced extensive petroleum exploration in the 1960s but concerted exploration efforts since then have been patchy. Whilst trap integrity is considered the main exploration risk\, there is still excellent potential for oil and gas discoveries of significant size. Gas2Grid Limited has been active with onshore petroleum exploration in the Philippines since 2005 and the author since 1981.

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT Christmas luncheon
DESCRIPTION:PESA SA/NT Christmas luncheon\nAnnus Mirabilis\nThe breakthrough year when petroleum geoscience changed forever\nRhodri Johns\n  \nAbstract: \nIn a single remarkable year\, several key papers and books were published that revolutionised the petroleum geosciences. \nSome of these publications introduced groundbreaking ideas\, concepts\, and methodologies that stunned and astonished both academia and the petroleum industry. Others synthesised state of the art in disciplines such as sedimentology and geochemistry\, building on developments from the previous decades\, like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle falling into place; these works not only led to a more innovative approach to petroleum exploration but also laid the foundations for systematic basin analysis\, play analysis\, petroleum systems analysis\, and risk analysis – approaches that would emerge as essential tools for the petroleum industry in the 1980/90s and beyond. \nWhat were these pivotal publications\, and who were their authors? How and where did these ideas and breakthroughs originate\, and how were they received by both academia and the industry? \nRhodri Johns will tell this story from a personal perspective\, offering new insights from those closer to the action. \n  \n\nEvent Details:\nThursday 12 December 2024\nLuncheon: 12 pm for a 12:30 pm start\nPlace: Ayer’s House\, 288 North Tce\, Adelaide \nThe luncheon will consist of 3 courses and a 3-hour drinks package \nBookings close 1 pm Monday\, 9th December 2024 \nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee.

SUMMARY:PESA WA February 13th Evening Talk: New Tricks for Old Dogs: Modelling for the Energy Transition
DESCRIPTION:PESA WA invites you to a technical Evening Event Thursday 13th February.\nNew Tricks for Old Dogs: Modelling for the Energy Transition\nPresented by Mark Bentley (Langdale Geoscience) \nSo\, the plan is to store CO2 … \nIf we’re involved in making reservoir and simulation models for oil and gas production\, what do we have to do differently now for the world of storage?  On the face of it\, these are just gas disposal schemes (simple).  On closer inspection\, it’s not quite like that\, and it turns out it’s much more interesting (harder). \nThis short talk looks at some areas of change and the aspects we need to get right if our forecasts are to be meaningful at all.  There’s a clear shift from sedimentary to more structural themes (which we have to be much better at)\, a replacement of familiar concepts such as in-place resource volumes and recovery factor to less familiar ideas of storativity and storage efficiency and a rethink of the importance of heterogeneity in the face of different fluids and in a non-isothermal world. \nThe scales we model at will need to be different\, and so will the timescales.  There’s also the over-arching issue that best solutions are likely to lie in aquifers\, yet most projects on the drawing board are for depleted gas fields. Some technical reservoir issues are clearly less important than they were during production\, but others are more critical in areas where our supporting data is limited. \nNot really prosecco – more like olive oil. \n  \nTimings for the event: \nDate: Thursday 13st February 2025 \nVenue: Parmelia Hilton Hotel\, Perth \nTime: 6pm – 8pm (Perth time) \n  \n\nPESA Members:                                $40.00 (PESA Members must Log on to the PESA website to purchase) \nNon-members:                                 $50.00 \nPESA Students Members:              Free (registration is essential)

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT February Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:PESA SA/NT February Luncheon\nSeismic interpretation of the Petrel Sub-basin CO2 Storage Opportunity \nJames Komenza\nAbstract: \nAn integrated geologic and geophysical study of the Mesozoic storage resource in the Petrel Sub-basin (Bonaparte Basin). This study includes regional petrophysics\, geomechanics\, rock physics\, seismic reprocessing and inversion in an area of sparse well and seismic data. \nAlthough numerous wells have been drilled in the Petrel Sub-basin\, their focus has been the underlying Palaeozoic petroleum system\, resulting in scant or compromised data quality in the overburden. This often limits data utility for reservoir characterization\, field appraisal and development planning for the primary Mesozoic storage targets. Seismic reprocessing and quantitative interpretation supported by a model-based rock physics workflow have been used to fill in some of the gaps. This new data has been used to interpret depositional trends of both reservoir and seal\, reservoir quality\, heterogeneity and clay content\, seal presence and thickness\, and interval velocity away from well control. Insights from this study further highlight the suitability of G-11-AP for large scale CO2 storage. \n  \n\nEvent Details:\nThursday 27ht February 2025\nLuncheon: 12 pm for a 12:30 pm start\nPlace: Ayer’s House\, 288 North Tce\, Adelaide \nThe luncheon will consist of 3 courses and a 3-hour drinks package \nBookings close 1 pm Monday\, 24th February 2025 \nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee. Strictly no walk-ins.

SUMMARY:PESA ACT/NSW March Technical Talk
DESCRIPTION:RE’s and Geo’s – Never the Twain Shall Meet(?)\nThis talk discusses the working relationship between Reservoir Engineers and Geoscientists. It starts with a historical perspective (the bad old days) through to the current status (e.g. Asset Teams). The talk is illustrated by field examples showing the synergies that can be obtained through effective communication between the disciplines. The fields discussed include the Gippsland Basin Tuna Field\, Iagifu -Hedinia in the PNG Highlands\, Tui Field in the Taranaki Basin and Ravva Field in the Bay of Bengal.
