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. Strictly no walk-ins.

We will highlight key differences\, in terms of phase behaviour\, between CO2 and other fluids more typically encountered in oil and gas operations\, and the implications these have on multiphase flow in the reservoir. The main flow mechanisms\, as well as physical scaling laws incorporating capillarity\, buoyancy and viscosity will be discussed and used to analyse the flow regimes typically encountered in the field. The talk will end with discussion on dissolution\, residual\, and mineral trapping mechanisms.

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

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 ETSIG/CSIRO CCS Knowledge Transfer Series: Installment 3
DESCRIPTION:PESA ETSIG/CSIRO CCS Knowledge Transfer Series: Installment 3 \nThe PESA Energy Transition Special Interest Group (ETSIG)\, in conjunction with CSIRO\, is running the “CCS Knowledge Transfer Series” which aims to cover geological and geophysical aspects of CCS\, focusing on the differences from oil and gas operations. \nFurther information about the series can be found here: \nhttps://pesa.com.au/events/etsig-csiro-ccs-knowledge-transfer-series/2023-09-05/ \n  \nKindly supported by: \n \n  \nThis live webinar will take place at: \n11am              – Perth\n12.30pm       – Darwin\n1pm                – Brisbane\n1:30pm          – Adelaide\n2pm                – 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 PESA members (please log in to see this)\, free for members of the AGA\, SPE\, AAPG (Asia-Pacific) and the EAGE (Asia-Pacific).  Tickets for non-members are $10 per episode. \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. \n  \n  \nCCS Knowledge Transfer Series: Installment 3 \nReservoir Engineering and Simulation for CCS – Jonathan Ennis-King (CSIRO) \nAbstract \n\nThe practice of reservoir engineering and simulation in CCS begins with the standard physics of multiphase flow in porous media\, but with CO2-specific properties to be represented\, especially the solubility of CO2 in brine and the matching changes in brine density\, and relative permeability effects. Four major code comparison studies have been carried out over the last twenty years\, mostly to cross-validate simulator performance (of both people and software)\, as well as the most recent comparison with laboratory experiments. \nThe questions addressed by CCS simulation are quite distinct from most hydrocarbon recovery work: one is modelling large volumes of CO2 injection (millions of tonnes) into saline formations\, where the resulting CO2 plume migrates laterally over distances of kilometres\, and in timeframes of up to a thousand years after injection ceases. Feasibility studies need to address the range of uncertainties in the plume footprint\, which stem from the uncertainties in geological characterisation of surface topography\, sub-seismic faults\, and permeability heterogeneity both laterally and vertically. The pressures increase due to injection may necessitate the design of relief wells. Simulations are needed to design monitoring and verification plans\, and to interpret the data which is gathered. Regulatory compliance requires forward predictions of plume evolution\, which can be checked against monitoring results to ensure the CO2 is ‘behaving as predicted’. It may also be necessary to assess the risk of CO2 injection affecting other resources\, such as groundwater\, hydrocarbons\, geothermal or storage projects (for natural gas or hydrogen). \nThe least conventional aspects of CCS simulation involve the coupling of fluid flow to additional physics. Thermal effects are important in the wellbore and the near-well environment\, with the cooling effects of injection reducing the maximum allowable injection pressure. Geochemical interactions with the reservoir rock or seal can potentially aid storage by mineralising CO2\, and this is the focus of in-situ carbonation research. Injection can also induce seismicity\, and this potential can be modelled as well as monitored during operations. Finally\, the rise of artificial intelligence and machine learning has prompted research into ways to accelerate the modelling process and allow fast history-matching. \nOverall\, CCS provides many fascinating challenges for subsurface modelling\, and the scope for this work is likely to expand significantly in Australia as more projects progress through feasibility studies towards implementation.

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.

Once registered with the webinar software you will receive a reminder e-mail 1 hour beforehand. \nSeismic Source Rock Global Tour \nPresented by Neil Hodgson (Searcher) \nAbstract \n\n“There are no source rocks south of the Walvis Ridge” was not an uncommon phrase which sounded in the industry until quite recently. This myth was finally busted in 2022 when Shell and Total Energies respectively announced the giant Graff and Venus discoveries in the Orange Basin offshore Namibia. This was the grand finale of a long-standing debate in which model and data fought a hard battle. On the one hand\, there was a model that did not support the presence\, quality and maturity of source rocks over oceanic crust. On the other hand\, the novel approach of applying seismic source rock characterization in a frontier basin was pointing to the presence of a world class source rock generating hydrocarbons migrating into large traps (Rodriguez et al.\, 2023 EAGE Uruguay) \nIn the Loseth et al.\, 2011 publication“Can hydrocarbon source rocks be identified on seismic data?” compelling evidence using a significant amount of North Sea seismic and well data indicated that seismic data can be used to identify source rocks. \nUsing a full source rock de-risking methodology and access to a large global seismic dataset has enabled identification of source rocks on seismic. This presentation will be a guided tour around the seismic expression of source rocks in frontier basins around the world.

SUMMARY:PESA WA November Evening talk: Natural Hydrogen Exploration - applying familiar tools in new ways
DESCRIPTION:Natural Hydrogen Exploration: Applying Familiar Tools in New Ways \n\nKrista Davies: Edith Cowan University\, School of Engineering\, Centre for Sustainable Energy Resources \n\n\nThe field of natural hydrogen exploration is currently experiencing a surge in global interest\, with a notable focus on Australia\, where recent legislative changes have created opportunities for exploration initiatives. But how can we effectively pursue this non-petroleum gas resource? \nIn recent years\, the international dialogue has revolved around the concepts of play fairway mapping and soil gas sampling. However\, the path to harnessing natural hydrogen is not as straightforward as merely marking serpentinites on a map\, assembling drilling equipment\, and venturing into the field. It’s important to acknowledge that natural hydrogen exploration presents distinct challenges that differ from conventional petroleum exploration\, necessitating tailored methodological adjustments. \nThe complex chemical interactions between hydrogen\, water\, and minerals within rocks are contingent upon various factors\, including the original mineral composition\, temperature\, pressure\, salinity and the redox conditions of the system. \nDuring this presentation\, we will delve into a selection of emerging techniques spanning fieldwork\, laboratory analysis\, and desktop methodologies that are currently being developed within the natural hydrogen industry. Many of these techniques share common ground with established practices in oil and gas exploration\, enabling a seamless and practical adaptation to the unique demands of natural hydrogen. \nIn light of the escalating importance of sustainable energy sources\, the exploration of natural hydrogen via the refinement of petroleum techniques assumes a pivotal role in safeguarding our future energy security. Our research underscores the significance of an efficient and pragmatic approach to unlocking the potential of natural hydrogen. With ongoing research and development\, natural hydrogen has the potential to evolve into a critical and dependable contributor to the clean energy mix. \n\nTuesday 14th November 6pm (for talk starting at 6.45pm)\, The Shoe Bar (Yagan Square) \nCost: \nPESA Members:                                $25.00 (Members must Log on to the PESA website to see the member prices) \nNon-members:                                 $50.00 \nPESA Students Members:               Free (registration is essential) \nBookings close Monday 13th November at 5pm for venue and catering purposes.

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 ETSIG/CSIRO CCS Knowledge Transfer Series: Installment 4
DESCRIPTION:PESA ETSIG/CSIRO CCS Knowledge Transfer Series: Installment 4 \nThe PESA Energy Transition Special Interest Group (ETSIG)\, in conjunction with CSIRO\, is running the “CCS Knowledge Transfer Series” which aims to cover geological and geophysical aspects of CCS\, focusing on the differences from oil and gas operations. \nFurther information about the series can be found here: \nhttps://pesa.com.au/events/etsig-csiro-ccs-knowledge-transfer-series/2023-09-05/ \n  \nKindly supported by: \n \n  \nThis live webinar will take place at: \n11am              – Perth\n12.30pm       – Darwin\n1pm                – Brisbane\n1:30pm          – Adelaide\n2pm                – 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 PESA members (please log in to see this)\, free for members of the AGA\, SPE\, AAPG (Asia-Pacific) and the EAGE (Asia-Pacific).  Tickets for non-members are $10 per episode. \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. \n  \n  \nCCS Knowledge Transfer Series: Installment 4 \nStorage Resource Estimation and Injection Strategies – What’s Different About CCS? – Karsten Michael (CSIRO) \nAbstract \n\nFor the successful implementation and regulation of CO2 geological storage operations\, it is important to establish a reliable definition\, classification\, and estimation of storage resources.  For this purpose\, the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) released the CO2 Storage Resources Management System (SRMS) following the concept of its industry-standard Petroleum Resources Management System (PRMS). The SRMS considers both technical and commercial factors and the major storage resource classes with increasing data knowledge and chance of commerciality are: Inaccessible Storage Resources\, Prospective Storage Resources\, Contingent Storage Resources\, Capacity\, and Stored. The volumetric estimation of storage resources involves the interpretation of the subsurface which has an inherent degree of uncertainty. Fundamental for elevating storage resources to a storage capacity is the evaluation of containment of the stored CO2 and\, most importantly\, injectivity considerations. Here\, bigger is not necessarily better. Rather the capacity of a commercial CO2 storage operation needs to be sufficient to accept the planned volume of CO2 with emphasis on injection efficiency\, safety and economics. Hence\, actual injection or formation tests and containment assessment must provide a high confidence in the commercial injectability of the characterised geologic formation. Injectivity is constrained by the allowable bottom hole pressure\, which should be safely below the reservoir fracture pressure or the pressure capable to activate any faults in the vicinity of the storage complex. Storage capacity could be increased\, at a cost\, by managing reservoir pressure through water production wells. Other than in petroleum operations\, where production wells are generally completed at the top of the reservoir for production efficiency\, CO2 injectors placed at the bottom or at the downdip portion of the storage complex may be the most efficient strategy for achieving maximum storage capacity.

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 SA/NT February Evening Talk: The pathway to Gigatonne CO2 storage
DESCRIPTION:The large-scale capture and storage of carbon dioxide is a critical component of the route to achieving Net Zero. However\, CCUS technologies are still in their infancy. The IEA calculated worldwide storage-rates in 2021 of approximately 40 Mt of CO2 per year but this needs to be upscaled to 7.6Gt of CO2 per year by 2050. Phil will review the pathway to gigatonne-scale CO2 storage and present details from a case study on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. \n  \nTimings for the event: \n  \n5:00 to 6:00 – pre-talk drinks and canapes in the bar at Ayers House\n6:00 to 7:00 – evening talk and Q&A in Henry’s Table\n7:00 to 7:30 – post-talk drinks in the bar \n  \nPESA SA/NT will provide a selection of canapes. Beer\, wine and soft drinks are available and can be purchased from the bar.  \n  \nThis event is also free for students – but there are limited tickets\, so make sure to book soon! \n
