SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT April Luncheon- Cooper Basin - seismic processing & where it leads ...
DESCRIPTION:PESA SA/NT April Luncheon\nJoint meeting with ASEG SA-NT\nCooper Basin – seismic processing & where it leads …\nPeter Strauss\n  \nAbstract:\nProcessing and interpretation work on the Western Flank of the Cooper Basin indicate that modern land 3D seismic datasets are often not fit-for-purpose when targeting smaller-scale structures. One of the primary objective in this region\, the Namur horizon\, is typically a strong and easily identifiable seismic event. Exploration success therefore depends less on horizon picking and more on accurately positioning wells on genuine structural highs. However\, deeper targets beneath the Namur present greater challenges. In these intervals\, seismic events are often discontinuous and geologically inconsistent\, making both structural interpretation and imaging problematic. \nThis talk highlights two key issues: \nThe structural problem is not new—it was identified in 2D seismic data approximately 30 years ago\, where structural “corrections” were applied. These corrections have not been consistently carried through into modern 3D datasets.\nImaging quality in onshore seismic data is being compromised by the application of processing workflows originally developed for marine 3D seismic. These methods are poorly suited to land data\, where targets are significantly smaller and geological complexity is higher. Avoiding such approaches can yield sharper\, more geologically meaningful seismic images better suited to land exploration. \nEvent Details:\nThursday\, 30th April 2026 \nLuncheon: 12 pm for a 12:30 pm start \nPlace: Ayer’s House\, 288 North Tce\, Adelaide \nThe luncheon will consist of 2 courses and drinks \nBookings close 5 pm Monday\, 27th April 2026 \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. \nCan PESA Members Help the World to Stop Climate Change?\nPresented by Bob Ward (Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment at the London School of Economics and Political Science) \nAbstract: \n\nThe world will not be able to limit global warming to 1.5 Celsius degrees above pre-industrial level if all current reserves of coal\, oil and gas are consumed and the resulting carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere. The International Energy Agency has warned that new development of fossil fuels is incompatible with limiting warming to 1.5 Celsius degrees above pre-industrial level\, which was the strongest target that countries signed up to in the 2015 Paris Agreement. \nHowever\, President Donald Trump rejects the evidence for climate change as a “hoax” and has withdrawn the United States from international action on climate change. He is attempting to thwart domestic action and encouraging fossil fuel companies to “drill baby drill”. Should PESA members also pretend that climate change does not exist\, and support President Trump’s goal of American Energy Dominance? Or is there a better option by supporting the development of carbon capture and storage?

SUMMARY:PESA NSW: April 2026 Technical Lunch
DESCRIPTION:Net Zero\nPESA NSW invite you to our technical luncheon. Presented by Max Williamson. The Branch AGM will also be held before the lunch. \nIntroduction\nNet Zero (aka Net Zero Emissions) is a widely used and abused term in today’s environment conscious world. The term has been grabbed by many professions in our developed society to mean many things\, but all about justifying their actions\, pronouncements and member requirements. Industries have been created based on the simple two words. \nQuoting from Wikipedia:\n“The idea of NET ZERO came out f research in the late 2000s into how the atmosphere\, oceans and carbon cycle were reacting to CO2 emissions. This research found that global warming will significantly slow down only if CO2 emissions are reduced to net zero\, although existing greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere will still contribute to continued warming. Net zero was basic to the goals of the Paris Agreement. This stated that the world must “achieve a balance between anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of greenhouse gasses in the second half of this century”. The term “net zero” gained popularity after the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change published its Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5 degrees Celsius (SR15). This report stated that “Reaching and sustaining net zero global anthropogenic (human caused) CO2 emissions and declining net non-CO2 radiative forcing would halt anthropogenic global warming on multi-decadal time scales (high confidence).”\nTodays realities \nIn Australia alone\, there are copious seminar papers\, technical journals\, comprehensive books etc written by members of various technical\, legal\, accounting\, engineering and environmental bodies including scientists\, professors\, barristers\, lawyers\, chartered accountants and of course journalists. So much is self-promoting care has to be taken to recognise bias and the need to ensure the individuals remain in paid employment or keep their consulting roles. Having said that it is also fair to say there are some seriously well written and technically supported items that deserve attention from members of bodies such as PESA and SPE. \nMeaning it is important to make up your own mind on the correctness and reasonableness of anything out there meant to be influencing or causing changes in society reactions\, laws and investments. \nQuoting from Wikipedia\n“Net Zero claims vary enormously in how credible they are\, but most have low credibility despite the increasing number of commitments and targets. While 61% of global carbon dioxide emissions are covered by some sort of net zero target\, credible targets cover only 7% of emissions. This low credibility reflects a lack of binding regulation. It is also due to the need for continued innovation and investment to make decarbonisation possible.” \nPESA Presentation \nThis PESA presentation about looking at:\n1/ what really is meant by NET ZERO in a legal\, accounting and recording sense for oil and gas operators. More particularly defining both aspects of the costs/debits imposed by emissions on the one hand and the credits such as carbon credits; and\n2/ various positions of the more public participants\, determining any bias factors\, discounting or elevating opinions of relevance.\nWhile it is impossible to ignore politicians and their influencers in this scene\, the intention is to focus away from political rhetoric and focus on realities including real world calculations\, legal obligations and accounting disclosures. \nPESANSWBranch-AGMNotice2026 \nPESA NSW Branch Committee Nomination Form 2026 \nPESA NSW-ACT Branch AGM 2026 -Annual Report for 2025 \nPESA NSW 2025 AGM Minutes

SUMMARY:PESA WA: Stretching or Flexing - A Review of the Triassic from the Northern Carnarvon and Roebuck Basins
DESCRIPTION:Hosted with thanks to our Platinum Sponsor: \n \nand Gold Sponsor: \n \nand Silver Sponsors: \n \n \n \nand Bronze Sponsor: \n \n\nPESA WA invites you to our technical evening event on Tuesday 17 March at the Shoe Bar:\nStretching or Flexing – A Review of the Triassic from the Northern Carnarvon and Roebuck Basins\nPresented by Alex Maftei (Curtin University)\nIn this technical session\, Alex Maftei will present the results of his giant interpretation effort\, which includes Triassic formation tops for 442 wells within a sequence stratigraphic framework\, at least four key Triassic horizons\, and more than 2300 faults interpreted in an extremely large seismic dataset. This study also incorporates basin-wide structural and isochron maps of the main Triassic sequences\, depth conversion\, and a velocity model that resulted in isopach maps\, establishing the enormous thickness of the Triassic (up to 16 km). Forty wells were backstripped\, and the total and tectonic subsidence were determined. The backstripped thickness at the beginning of the Jurassic was used to evaluate the flexural component of the subsidence (46–73% of the total subsidence). The elastic lithosphere thickness that best fits the data is between 20 and 30 km. The presentation will include notes on the wider development of Triassic volcanism\, stratigraphic observations on the Triassic from the western Exmouth Plateau\, such as a prograding deltaic system and incised valleys at the Ladinian-Carnian boundary\, multi-erosional surfaces\, and canyons in the Norian\, and the earlier development of reefs in the Late Norian. \nTicket Prices: \nMember (Early Bird until 5pm Tuesday 10 March): $40.00 \nMember: $50.00 \nStudent Member: $20.00 \nNon-Member: $60.00 \nEarly bird pricing ends Tuesday 10 March (1 week prior) at 5pm (AWST). All ticket sales close at 5pm Friday 13 March.  No further tickets will be allocated after this time. \nPlease note that this event will be held on Tuesday 17 March at the Shoe Bar (Shop GSO7 Yagan Square\, 376 – 420 Wellington St\, Perth WA 6050).

SUMMARY:PESA NSW: The Geology and Petroleum Resources of Venezuela
DESCRIPTION:The Geology and Petroleum Resources of Venezuela\nPESA NSW invite you to our technical luncheon. Presented by Phil Cooney (PESA NSW President). \nVenezuela\, located on the northern edge of South America\, is only slightly bigger than NSW yet it has produced an estimated 50 billion barrels of oil to date and still contains oil reserves of over 300 billion barrels (more than the 267 billion barrels of Saudi Arabia) and 18% of the world’s reserves. Phil will talk about the extraordinary fit of Source\, Reservoir\, Seal and Migration Timing that resulted in Venezuela’s mega accumulations as well as a brief description of how and when they were discovered and the effect on Venezuela itself. \n

SUMMARY:PESA QLD: Barry Goldstein Medal Lecture Tour March 2026 – Bruce Ainsworth
DESCRIPTION:Honouring the Humble Clinoform: Towards a Reservoir Modelling Best Practice\nPresented by Dr. Bruce Ainsworth\, recipient of the 2025 Barry Goldstein Medal \nClinoforms have fascinated Bruce since first pondering their economic significance in Shell Research Laboratories in the early 1990’s. These dipping stratal surfaces are ubiquitous in the stratigraphic record but often ignored with regard to their potential significant influence on fluid flow in the subsurface. Whether you are interested in hydrocarbon or groundwater extraction\, carbon sequestration\, or sediment hosted uranium\, you need to know if you are dealing with clinoforms. Clinoforms can have significant impacts on resource recovery and emplacement. Ignoring them or simply not recognising them can have profound (usually) negative impacts on project value. Key to making clinoforms your best friend are three steps; 1) recognition\, 2) uncertainty management\, and 3) targetted modelling. This talk will guide the clinoform user through these steps and suggest a reservoir modelling best practice for honouring the humble clinoform. \n  \nTickets on sale now.\nStandard ticket pricing will go into affect on Friday\, 27th February 5:00 PM. \nPlease note\, this event will commence at 12:30pm (arrival from 12:00pm).

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT Annual General Meeting & Christmas Luncheon 2025
DESCRIPTION:PESA SA/NT\nAnnual General Meeting & Christmas Luncheon\n\nDate: Thursday\, 11 December 2025\, Time: 12:30 PM\nVenue: Ayers House\, North Terrace\, Adelaide\n  \nAnnual General Meeting \nThe PESA South Australia/Northern Territory Branch invites all members to attend the 2025 Annual General Meeting (preceding the Christmas Luncheon) .This important event provides a valuable opportunity to reflect on the year’s progress\, recognize our collective achievements\, and plan for the year ahead. \nThe AGM will be held immediately prior to the PESA SA/NT Christmas Luncheon\, offering members the chance to engage in both professional discussion and seasonal celebration. \nAgenda \n\nPresident’s Report – Review of the Branch’s activities and milestones accomplished throughout 2025.\n\nTreasurer’s Report – Presentation of the financial summary and key fiscal updates. \n\n\nProposed 2026 Committee – Introduction of the nominated committee members for the upcoming year. \n\n\nAdditional Nominations from the Floor – Opportunity for further nominations to be put forward. \n\n\nAny Other Business (AOB) – Open discussion of other matters of interest to members. \n\n\nAll members are encouraged to attend\, contribute to the discussions\, and participate in the formation of the 2026 committee. Your engagement helps guide the direction of our Branch and ensures that our community continues to thrive. \n  \nChristmas Luncheon\nChristmas Geo-Crackers with David Grybowski\n\n  \nAbstract: \nBorn 29 May 2006 and not dead yet. Volcanoes are no strangers to Indonesia and Lusi is the ……………………………………………………………..wisdom in this thrilling Christmas luncheon. \nOops sorry! Wrong talk. A Christmas lunch is a time to have a few laughs\, and when you dig deep into the Lusi disaster\, it deserves our serious consideration later in the year.   \n For your entertainment\, David will instead present a trio of Christmas crackers.  \n\n Why Does The Niagara Fall?\n\n Forbes has Niagara Falls in second on their bucket list of travel destinations – wedged in between the Maldives and the Mona Lisa. But what is the geology over which the Niagara falls? Newlywed couples don’t care. Nobody is curious enough to ask this question except the Petroleum Exploration Society of Australia’s SA/NT branch. Once again\, David Grybowski will give you all the answers you’ve been yearning for.  \n\n Petroleum Dreaming of the Adelaide Plains \n\n In a short presentation\, David will geo-fantasise the petroleum reservoir targets present in the geomorphology of the Adelaide Plains as if they were depositional environments under a seal of transgressive mudstones and thousands of metres of overburden.   \n\n The Ancient Turkish Coast \n\n Time permitting\, David will reprise part of his Cry Me A River presentation that he gave in 2022 about the fluvial filling of the River Meander in western Turkey that left ancient ports stranded from the sea.  \n\n And a sneak preview of Lusi – The Greatest Mud Volcano Disaster in the World. \n\nA thrilling Whatdunnit and Who-pay-for-it.  \n  \nDavid returns to the PESA podium with another Christmas cracker-good pole axing of industry norms. October 2022 saw fluvial hi jinks with Cry Me A River and the world premiere of the petroleum play pitch The Project – A Play About Not Working Together.  For the Christmas luncheon of 2023\, David shared his rock-starred childhood with The Books That Hooked Me – an investigation of the childhood books and collectables that turned his head toward geology.

SUMMARY:NSW Re-union Christmas Party 2025
DESCRIPTION:Geothermal rising can save Tomago without big government subsidies.\nPESA NSW and SPE NSW invite you to the 2025 Christmas Party. This will be a re-union meeting for NSW oil and gas professionals\, so come along for some laughs with old friends. \nNew technology to capture affordable geothermal energy. This talk describes a long awaited breakthrough in technology to deliver plentiful cheap geothermal energy. The obstacles for geothermal energy have been: \n\nDifficulties of using multiple fractures to reliably connect “injection and “production” wells deep under ground\nSite specific nature of traditional geothermal resources\nAffordable drilling technology\n\nAdvances in geothermal technologies from the USA are rapidly changing the economic potential\, including: \n\nAffordably capturing 300 degree heat from wells too deep to drill by using patented deep fraccing\nSimilarly affordably capturing 200 degree heat at drillable 5 km by cycling water through planar fractures; and\nUsing similar technology for underground pumped hydro storage more cheaply than batteries and surface pumped hydro with significantly less community and environmental impact\n\n

SUMMARY:2025 PESA WEBINAR SERIES: Unlocking the Digital Twin of Wellbore Geology: AI-Powered Cuttings Data (Alex Fuerst)
DESCRIPTION:Kindly supported by Rock Flow dynamics  \n  \nThis live webinar will take place at: \n11am | Perth\n12.30pm | Darwin\n1pm | Brisbane\n1:30pm | Adelaide\n2pm | 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. \nUnlocking the Digital Twin of Wellbore Geology: AI-Powered Cuttings Data\nPresented by Alex Fuerst (Molyneux Advisors) \nAbstract \n\nThis webinar introduces the power of AI to transforms drill cuttings into comprehensive digital datasets for wellbore characterisation. By systematically digitising legacy and modern cuttings through automated washing\, high-resolution imaging\, and advanced segmentation algorithms\, Grain-e extracts quantitative data traditionally captured only through qualitative wellsite descriptions. \nUsing a variety of AI workflows to identify and measure individual grains\, providing unbiased statistical analysis of grain size\, sorting\, sphericity\, and roundness across 1\,000-5000 particles per sample. This eliminates interpreter bias and delivers data-driven insights including subtle trends no technology has picked up previously. \nKey applications span the well lifecycle: \nGeological Insights: Optical stratigraphy using digital colour analysis reveals high-resolution correlations beyond simple sand/shale distinctions\, identifying subtle depositional changes stacking patterns\, with additional insights from enhancing colour spectra or investigating trace colour occurrences. \nReservoir Characterisation: Particle size distributions optimise completion design or inform sedimentological interpretations enhancing reservoir models when integrated with wireline data. \nDrilling Safety & Geomechanics: AI-based identification of splintery cavings enables quantitative pore pressure assessment and wellbore stability evaluation. Cavings can be tied back to source formations using colour and texture signatures\, improving geomechanical predictions.

At the time of the project several work-over opportunities existed in the field\, with Kenmore-43\, a previously cased and suspended but yet to be completed well\, identified as one of the best candidates to potentially improve field production. Focusing on the Jurassic Basal Birkhead and Hutton intervals\, a geological model was built to capture a range of possible static outcomes\, test each case dynamically and once matched\, forecast the potential production if Kenmore-43 were to be perforated. The modelling work was closely integrated with the simulation results and was continuously refined to obtain the best possible history match. In all cases that achieved a match\, Kenmore-43 was identified as a viable economic opportunity which followed through with a very successful workover. The project highlighted the value of integrated static and dynamic modelling and how this not only improves understanding of the field but also has wider implications for other opportunities both within Kenmore and analogous fields in the basin.

SUMMARY:PESA SA/NT November Luncheon : Moomba CCS
DESCRIPTION:PESA SA/NT  November Luncheon\nMoomba CCS – delivering a world leading CO2 storage project\nAnthony Western (Santos)\n  \nAbstract:\nThe Moomba Carbon Capture and Storage project is a large-scale CCS project at the Moomba Gas Plant in the Cooper Basin\, South Australia. New facilities were constructed to capture\, dehydrate\, transport and permanently store CO2 emissions that were previously vented to atmosphere and depleted gas fields were selected as the initial storage reservoirs. Five new injection wells were drilled\, and existing wells were re-purposed as monitoring wells to enable the Monitoring and Verification (M&V) plan including environmental assurance monitoring. \nThe Moomba CCS project commenced operations in September 2024 and by June 2025 had safely captured and permanently stored more than 1.0 million tonnes of CO2 emissions. The wells and storage reservoir are performing as expected and monitoring wells are seeing signs of CO2 injection in line with reservoir model predictions. At 1.7 Mtpa CO2e\, it is one of the largest CCS projects in the world and its successful startup and early performance has enabled future CCS growth in the Cooper Basin. \nThis presentation will give an overview of the Moomba CCS project and share some of the results to date\, with a focus on subsurface scope. \n\nEvent Details:\nThursday 20th November 2025 \nLuncheon: 12 pm for a 12:30 pm start \nPlace: Ayer’s House\, 288 North Tce\, Adelaide \nThe luncheon will consist of 2 courses and drinks \nBookings close 5 pm Monday\, 17th Nov 2025 \nAny late bookings will incur an additional $20 fee.

The technical evening will be held at the Transcontinental Hotel. \nDue to the significant crossover with our peer society ASEG (Australian Society of Exploration Geophysicists)\, ASEG members are welcomed to attend at PESA member pricing. \nSpeaker travel and accommodation has been supported by Santos Ltd. \n\n\n\nPresentation:\nRecent applications of seismic geomorphology/stratigraphy: Deep-water deposits of the Bay of Bengal and the Norwegian Sea\n\n\nVenue:\nTranscontinental Hotel\, 482 George St\, Brisbane City QLD 4000\n\n\nDate & Time:\nWednesday\, 19 November 5:15 PM for 6:00 PM Start\n\n\n\n\n  \nRecent applications of seismic geomorphology/stratigraphy: Deep-water deposits of the Bay of Bengal and the Norwegian Sea\nHenry W. Posamentier\nThis presentation will document the seismic stratigraphic and seismic geomorphologic expressions of deep-water deposits of the Bay of Bengal and the Norwegian Sea. They comprise both turbidites as well as mass transport deposits. The turbidite deposits from the Bay of Bengal include leveed channel complexes\, terminal fans\, and overbank sediment waves. With respect to terminal fans\, there are those that terminate basinward of leveed channel systems and are relatively large\, and those that are deposited late within a lowstand cycle of deposition and are confined between the levees of precursor larger channels\, and are relatively small. Intra-basinal channels (i.e.\, channels that start and end on the basin floor) are observed within abandoned meander loops as well as interchannel overbank terrains. These intra-basinal channels are characterized by low sinuosity and likely are mud-filled with no exploration potential.  \nMass transport deposits from the Norwegian Sea include flows\, slumps\, and slides\, as well as isolated outrunner blocks. These deposits are associated with significant substate erosion up to 250m. The outrunner blocks are observed in clusters\, generally in radiating patterns down-system. Some of the outrunner blocks at the termini of erosional furrows are associated with sediment tails orthogonal to the direction of transport\, indicating bottom current direction from southwest to northeast. In addition\, volcanic intrusive deposits will be documented. These intrusives comprise both dikes and sills. Some of the dikes are associated with laccoliths in the shallower section.   \n  \n\n  \nTickets for the Technical Evening Talk can be purchased below. \nEarly Bird ticket pricing will be available until Wednesday\, 12 November 5:30 PM – to avoid disappointment please register before this time. \n\n\n\n\nEarly Bird Ticket Price\nStandard Ticket Price\n\n\n\n\nMembers – $35\nNon-Members – $45\nStudent / Retired Members – $25\nMembers – $45\nNon-Members – $55\nStudent / Retired Members – $35\n\n\n\n\n  \nSpeaker travel and accommodation supported by Santos Ltd.

SUMMARY:2025 PESA NSW November Talk
DESCRIPTION:Australia is endowed with abundant\, high-quality energy commodity resources\, which provide reliable energy for domestic use and underpin our status as a major global energy provider. \nThese resources make a substantial contribution to the nation’s gross domestic product and export earnings. Geoscience Australia (GA) has a long history of supporting the nation’s energy sector\, delivering independent geoscientific advice and data to underpin informed decision-making regarding Australia’s energy resources across government\, industry\, and the community. \nA key piece of work than informs this function is the annual publication Australia’s Energy Commodity Resources (AECR). To set the scene\, this talk will introduce the recently published AECR2025 publication before presenting an overview of GA’s current energy program. \nUnder the Resourcing Australia’s Prosperity initiative\, GA is focusing on low carbon energy resources that will help Australia achieve net zero. The forward program includes mapping and assessing geological capacity for CO₂ storage (both onshore and offshore)\, identifying potential hydrogen storage sites\, and evaluating natural hydrogen resources. These activities draw on GA’s expertise and existing data to provide new insights and lower investment risk in new resource developments.
