SUMMARY:PESA WA: Core Values Session #2
DESCRIPTION:PESA WA is excited to invite you to our second Core Values Session for 2026 on Friday 26 June at the Perth Core Library:\nHarvey Field Cores\nPresented by Cedric Griffiths (StrataMod Pty Ltd)\n\nThe cores will be used to re-examine the assumptions behind the CSIRO 2011/12 Sedsim forward stratigraphic model of Permian/Early Triassic sediment depositional environment which was run prior to obtaining the Harvey-1 well results. \nPrior to the drilling of Harvey-1 Schlumberger had developed a depositional concept model that assumed most of the sediment being transported westwards from the Darling Scarp in the form of alluvial fans. \nThe Sedsim model had most of the sediment being provided by a large river system from the south\, sourced from Antarctic mountain sources prior to break-up\, with minor input from the eastern fault block after “Tectonic and Stratigraphic History of the Perth Basin\, Norvick\, M.S. GA 2004”. \nChanges in palynology\, sedimentation style\, ichnofabric data\, and trace-fossils in wells from south to north and east to west will be discussed and at the session the interactive Sedsim forward model results that exhibit the proposed deposition system will be run. \n\n\nTicket Prices: \nMembers: $10.00 \nNon-Members: $20.00 \nPlease note that this event will be held on Friday 26 June 2026 at The Perth Core Library (37 Harris Street\, Carlisle). Participants are welcome to bring their own lunch. \nParticipants are invited to the Balmoral Hotel (901 Albany Highway\, Victoria Park) afterwards to continue discussions. Nibbles will be provided\, and drinks will be available at the bar at your own cost.

SUMMARY:PESA WA: July Technical Evening Presentation: Boyan Vakarelov
DESCRIPTION:PESA WA invites you to our July Technical Evening Presentation on Thursday 16 July at Faraday’s:\n“Constrained by Geology: Reducing Sub-Seismic Uncertainty with Depositional Analogues and Synthetic Data”\nPresented by Boyan Vakarelov (Founder SEDBASE)\n\nMany critical subsurface decisions depend on predicting fluid flow through stratigraphic architectures that occur below typical seismic resolution\, or in areas with sparse well control. This sub-seismic uncertainty can be meaningfully reduced through following a geology-first approach\, where depositional variability is constrained by process understanding and calibrated against natural analogues. Such an approach should embrace multiple geologically valid solutions and focus on the architectural scale most relevant to the decision at hand. \nThis presentation draws on insights from an extensive depositional analogue database compiled over the past two decades\, highlighting how process regime and system type control the architecture of shallow marine and fluvial successions. We will then demonstrate how forward stratigraphic and object-based modeling workflows can generate geologically realistic scenarios in data-limited settings. These models not only improve uncertainty quantification and ultimately flow prediction but also provide physics-informed synthetic datasets for training AI neural network models. \n\nTicket Prices: \nMember: $30.00 \nStudent Member: $10.00 \nConcession Member [Retired or Hardship]: $20.00 \nNon-Member: $40.00 \nWorkshop Attendee: Complimentary \nAll ticket sales close at 5pm Tuesday 14 July.  No further tickets will be allocated after this time. \nPlease note that this event will be held on Thursday 16 July at Faraday’s (216 St Georges Terrace\, Perth). \nHosted with thanks to our Platinum Sponsor: \n \nand Gold Sponsor: \n \nand Silver Sponsors: \n \n \n \nand Bronze Sponsor:

SUMMARY:PESA WA: Alice Springs Field Trip and Core Viewing
DESCRIPTION:PESA WA ALICE SPRINGS FIELD TRIP\nPESA WA is hosting a field trip to Alice Springs in September 2026.  This is a fantastic opportunity to explore the region\, engage directly with field activities\, and deepen your understanding of the area’s geological context. \nStarting in Alice Springs\, the field trip includes three nights of 4-star accommodation\, with breakfast and lunch provided\, along with transport to and from the field. Expert guidance and commentary will be provided by Peter Haines with contributions from Fiona Burns and Simon Lang. The itinerary covers four days of Amadeus Basin geology\, split evenly between two half days viewing cores and two full days in the field. \nDuring the core workshops\, Fiona Burns (Task Fronterra) will lead participants through the Tent Hill-1 core. This well provides a near-complete section through the Lower to Middle Ordovician stratigraphy\, including the Pacoota Sandstone and overlying units. The Pacoota interval is represented by sub-units P3 to P1\, and recent work suggests deposition in a high-energy\, wave- and storm-dominated shoreface to shelf environment\, with a clear influence from nearby river systems. Simon Lang (GeoSed Consulting) will complement this by guiding the group through cores from the Mereenie Field\, including the P4 sub-unit of the Pacoota Sandstone\, offering a broader view of the full stratigraphic succession. \nIn the field\, Peter Haines (DMPE) will lead the group through the Ellery Creek section\, located approximately 90 km west of Alice Springs. This outcrop provides an exceptional\, near-continuous record of northern Amadeus Basin stratigraphy from the Tonian through to the Devonian. The field component will focus on the Larapinta Group\, comprising the Pacoota Sandstone\, Horn Valley Siltstone\, and Stairway Sandstone\, which represent the primary reservoir and source intervals for key regional accumulations such as the Palm Valley gas field\, Mereenie oil and gas field\, and the Surprise oil field. Participants can expect to see well-exposed sedimentary facies\, trace fossils\, and clear expressions of basin evolution\, with a possible extension into Devonian units depending on access conditions. \nBy combining detailed core analysis with regionally significant outcrop observations\, the trip is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the stratigraphy and to highlight how depositional environments and systems have evolved. \nThere will also be the opportunity to hunt for fossils\, including trilobites\, within the Horn Valley Siltstone. \nFieldtrip Leader: Peter Haines. \nContributors: Fiona Burns\, Simon Lang\, Charlie Verdel. \n \nItinerary: \nDay 1: PM: Core Store (0.5 day): Tent Hill-1 Pacoota and Stairway sandstone cores led by Fiona Burns. \nDay 2: Field Day: Ellery Creek\, Pacoota Sandstone section (shallow marine/deltaic) led by Peter Haines. \nDay 3: Field Day: Ellery Creek section (revisited) and other outcrops (stromatolites\, Dalmatian Rock) by Peter Haines and Charlie Verdel. \nDay 4: AM: Core Store (0.5 day): Mereenie Field core led by Simon Lang \n  \nCost: \n\nAttendance is open only to PESA members\, including interstate and international members.  Non-members must join PESA to attend.\n$1500.00 per person (includes accommodation\, transport to field areas\, breakfast\, lunch and digital field guide).\n\nPlease note that flights are not included in the above\, and places are limited.
