SUMMARY:2023 PESA WEBINAR SERIES: Machine Learning and Intelligent Augmentation Applied to Legacy Subsurface Data
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 \n  \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. \nMachine Learning and Intelligent Augmentation Applied to Legacy Subsurface Data \nPresented by Jess Kozman (Katalyst Data Management) \nAbstract \n\nRecent emphasis on low carbon energy projects in Australia  means large volumes of unstructured subsurface data become valuable to operators. . The need to  evaluate reservoirs for energy or carbon storage or light gas extraction means a requirement to de-risk geographic search and  make machine-readable text available for advanced data science algorithms. Companies with access to data gain a competitive advantage in licensing activities. Exisiting data management workflows may be too costly and resource intensive to support these emerging requirements. \nWe highlight how a  workflow using Machine Learning (ML) and Intelligence Augmentation (IA) can improve the efficiency of a typical data management workflow. Our example involves manually identifying relevant well logs in images from collection of tens of thousands of file types\, a typical task for an operator using open-file data in Australia. The current process may involve downloading from multiple state and federal repositories and manually entering indexing metadata into internal data repositories. \nWe have developed internal ML/AI data extraction workflows that that streamline automatically separating well log image files\, extracting mandatory indexing meta-data\, and presenting model-trained choices to end-users for adjustment and verification. The full solution involves image classification\, enhanced Optical Character Recognition(OCR)\, Natural Language Processing (NLP) for keyword labels and values\, and a User Interface (UI) that delivers and documents increased data quality and confidence metrics.

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). All ticket sales close at 5pm Tuesday (2 days prior). \n

SUMMARY:2023 PESA WEBINAR SERIES: CCS Monitoring and Verification: Why and How?
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 \n  \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. \nCCS Monitoring and Verification: Why and How? \nPresented by Hadi Nourollah (CO2CRC) \nAbstract \n\nMonitoring and verification of CO2 plume is essential in understanding the effectiveness and potential risks associated with carbon capture and storage (CCS). Despite some degrees of ambiguity in the regulations for the monitoring requirements\, all regulators require that the operator to monitor the injection\, migration and stabilisation of the plume. 20+ years of post-injection monitoring itself can be a costly task which requires careful planning. \nThe essence of monitoring lies in the continuous assessment of the behaviour and movement of the CO2 plume within the geological storage site. This includes measurements of pressure\, temperature\, and saturation (or their changes) of the underground reservoir where the CO2 is stored. By monitoring these parameters\, the operator can ensure that the stored CO2 is being contained as intended and is not leaking into the atmosphere or triggering any unwanted effects such as seismic activity. \nVerification\, on the other hand\, focuses on confirming the accurate placement and containment of the CO2 within the storage site. This involves the use of various monitoring techniques\, such as seismic surveys\, well logging\, and pressure testing\, to assess the integrity of the storage reservoir and detect any potential leaks or migration pathways. Verification is crucial in ensuring the long-term safety and reliability of CCS projects. \nMonitoring plans are very site specific\, but the learnings can be carried over to other projects. This talk aims to introduce some elements of risking that are to be considered for any monitoring plan and how they may be addressed.

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

The presentation highlights how to address issues such as data scarcity and methods for screening out areas for potential injector target selection. We will then take the model into simulation and visualize parameters critical to CCS such as plume behaviour\, trapping mechanisms\, and plume size. A geomechanics solver was also utilized to assess the seal integrity of the structural trap and the risk of potential fracture generation. The model was also taken into an integrated uncertainty study to assess the impact of operational and geological inputs on the total storage capacity of the formation.

Once registered with the webinar software you will receive a reminder e-mail 1 hour beforehand. \nThe Value of Knowledge Sharing in Bringing CCS Projects to Life \nPresented by Conway Nelson (The International CCS Knowledge Centre) \nAbstract \n\nThe capture and storage of CO2 (CCS) from heavy industry has long been recognized as a critical component of achieving a carbon-neutral and sustainable energy future. However\, the deployment of large-scale CCS projects has lagged behind rates proposed by organizations like the International Energy Agency and the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Recent developments indicate a shift in this trend. The social and economic value of CCS is increasingly acknowledged\, as well as its contribution to energy security and sustainability\, leading to higher public support and capital investment. As a result\, the global pipeline of CCS projects is growing\, with the increase in potential capture capacity rising from 75 million tonnes per year in 2022 to 320 million tonnes per year in March of 2023. \nDespite aspirations\, only a handful of CCS projects have been built and brought successfully into operation. The reasons are multifaceted\, including technical\, engineering\, economic\, financial\, and political challenges. To maximize the chances of success for current projects\, it is imperative that lessons learned from previous experience are applied\, to reduce risk\, lower costs and improve the performance of the next generation of CCS technologies. \nThe International CCS Knowledge Centre is one of the world’s leading curators of knowledge and lessons from CCS projects across heavy-emitting industries including power generation\, oil and gas production\, mining\, and cement\, steel and fertilizer manufacturing. Using its unique expertise\, the Knowledge Centre provides independent advice to help companies successfully navigate the myriad technical\, economic\, policy and stakeholder issues that accompany the development of major CCS projects. The Knowledge Centre’s experience is based in Canada\, which is a world leader in CCS development with five of the 30 industrial-scale CCS projects globally\, including the ground-breaking SaskPower Boundary Dam 3 CCS Facility (BD3 CCS facility)\, the world’s first fully integrated post-combustion CCS facility on a coal fired power plant. \nSaskPower’s BD3 CCS facility has effectively captured and sequestered over 5 million tonnes of CO2 since 2014\, with a 90% capture capability. As global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions gain momentum\, it becomes increasingly vital for there to be real-world examples of successful implementation of large-scale CCS technologies. The BD3 CCS facility provides those critical lessons learned and has paved the way for innovation\, increased efficiency and lower costs in future iterations of the technology across all industries. It has proven the feasibility of CCS technology at a commercial scale and provides a framework for governments and companies considering implementation. From this experience\, the Knowledge Centre has derived a set of technical\, strategic and regulatory insights and lessons that are applicable to the next generation of large-scale CCS projects across heavy-emitting industries\, and has developed a set of prioritized questions that potential project developers must ask in order to maximise the chances of a successful project.

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 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).

SUMMARY:2023 PESA WEBINAR SERIES: Why We Lose Women From Geosciences - Evidence-Based Causes and Solutions (WOMEESA Network)
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. \nWhy We Lose Women From Geosciences – Evidence-Based Causes and Solutions \nPresented by Erin Martin (IGO / Women in Earth And Environmental Sciences in Australasia) \nAbstract \n\nDiversity and inclusion in the workplace optimise performance through the input of a range of perspectives and approaches that drive innovation. However\, gender inequity is prevalent in STEM\, and women remain underrepresented in geosciences.  \nIn tertiary geoscience education globally\, there is an approximately even gender split that persists into research degrees. However\, the number of women begins to decrease from workforce entry\, becoming progressively worse at higher levels. In academia\, this presents as the “leaky pipeline” where the gender split at postdoctoral levels (often short-term fixed contract) is relatively even and there is a sharp decline in women entering continuing (tenured) positions and going on to senior (Professor) levels. In the minerals industry\, the most male-dominated industry in Australia comprising only 17% women\, most women are in non-geoscience roles. In mining\, there is a strong divergence in the proportion of men and women at increasingly senior levels\, with 92% of CEO positions held by men.  \nResearch into the causes of the Leaky Pipeline reveals that there are numerous contributing factors including unconscious bias against women\, lack of role models\, workplace arrangements that don’t suit mothers\, barriers to awards and jobs\, unequal access to parental leave\, bad experiences during fieldwork and sexual assault and harassment.  \nThe elimination of sexual assault and harassment through the pervasive implementation of recommendations handed down from Parliamentary inquiries and institutional and corporate investigations is essential for creating a safe space for women in Geoscience. Communication and implementation of best-practice\, evidence-based approaches\, and solutions to the many other factors contributing to the loss of women from geoscience will be valuable in creating positive change. Improved efforts to understand and address the reasons why women leave geoscience careers will help to repair the “leaky pipeline”. \nAbout the Women in Earth and Environmental Sciences in Australasia Network (WOMEESA) \n\nWOMEESA formed during the Inaugural Dorothy Hill Women in Earth Sciences Symposium in November 2017 identifying a need to bring together women in Earth and Environmental Sciences throughout Australasia.
