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.

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: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: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.
