Unconventional Reservoir Characterisation and Development

Forum 2013

Dear Colleague, This Forum will bring subsurface technical professionals together to discuss overcoming the challenges to front-end and production reservoir characterisation and development. By attending, youll have the opportunity to explore emerging technical and strategic subsurface developments to ultimately de-risk the play as effectively as possible in Australia from the following core angles: Formation evaluation and field appraisal challenges: Effectively analysing viability through data acquisition, analysis and simulation to overcoming the added complexity created by the heterogeneous nature of source rock. Developing subsurface integrated and innovative robust predictive modeling approaches to maximise unconventional assets production and minimise uncertainty in the exploration, appraisal and production stages of development

ADVISORY COMMITTEE:
Jason Kruszewski Senior Geologist, Hess Corporation Sanjeev Rajput Principal Geophysicist, CSIRO Dr. Manouchehr Haghighi Senior Lecturer, Aust. School of Petroleum, University of Adelaide Billy Hadisubrata Senior Reservoir Engineer, Drillsearch Energy Jay Ron Wong Principal Petroleum Engineer, QGC A BG Company David Lim Director, ODIN Reservoir Consultants Don McMillan Owner, Oil Gas CBM Services

Utilising the most effective specialised or customised equipment, technologies and skills on the asset to optimise the exploration and development of fields Were also pleased to announce that the forum will be held under the Chatham House Rule. This means all information is non-attributable and will aid the open exchange of information between attendees.

ABOUT OUR SPONSOR:

5 Reasons Why You Should Attend

1. A narrow and in-depth focus specifically on reservoir characterisation within shale, CSM and tight gas 2. Discuss technical and strategic subsurface issues under the Chatham House Rule*, encouraging openness and the sharing of information 3. Experience an innovative format, including case studies, presentations and interactive sessions including panel discussions, roundtables, workshops and a challenge to promote networking with industry experts and information exchange CGG is a fully integrated Geoscience company providing leading geological, geophysical and reservoir capabilities to its broad base of customers primarily from the global oil and gas industry. Its Equipment, Acquisition and Geology, Geophysics & Reservoir (GGR) divisions bring value across all aspects of natural resource exploration and exploitation.

4. Hear from industry-leading operators, service companies, researchers and solution providers from Australia and the USA 5. Gain knowledge that is directly applicable to your work and transfer that knowledge back to your team Join me and your peers in the Gold Coast this September to explore the opportunities that Unconventional Reservoir Characterisation Forum 2013 has to offer.

Gas Storage and Diffusion Behaviour in Shale and 14:10 Coal Reservoirs Gas storage mechanisms in shale and coal reservoirs; free vs. adsorbed gas The role of free and adsorbed gas in determining gas production The importance of flow in the natural fracture system and the diffusion of gas in the microporosity 14:50 Luke Connell, Research Group Leader, CSIRO Petroleum Spotlight Presentation Proudly Hosted by Baker Hughes and CGG

Developing Effective Environmental Communication 11:00 Strategies A Government Overview The roles, responsibilities and functions of the various government entities involved in unconventional resource development Regulatory strategy and compliance Mitigating environmental risk through the regulation of resource development Information content and communication pathways with the Department of Environment and Heritage Protection 11:30 Dave Campin, Queensland International Fellow, Chief Technical Advisor, Energy resources and Enforcement Services, Department of Environment and Heritage Protection Coffee Break and Networking

15:30 Panel Discussion: Utilising the Most Effective Equipment, Technologies and Skills on the Asset to Maximise Extraction Potential Exploring novel research and technologies in data acquisition and simulation Evaluating which technologies and equipment developed/customised in the USA will work most effectively on Australian unconventional gas plays Optimising reservoir surveillance and monitoring strategies across producing wells with minimal impact on production downtimes Minimising the environmental impact of CSG and shale exploration through technical and procedural advances Strengthening the interface between geologists, geoscientists and reservoir engineers to develop the strongest technical teams Dr. Steve Tyson, Professor of Sub-Surface Modeling, University of Queensland Paul Massarotto, Petroleum Engineering Consultant and President, TriPenta Energy Solutions

Best Practice for Shale Gas Development: Getting the 12:00 Science Right Establishing an effective baseline Understanding the specific macro- and micro- risks associated with the project The importance of recognising when unacceptable impacts are predicted Determining the right action to take in such a situation 12:45 13:10 David Whitaker, Associate, Arup Professor Peter Malin, Institute of Earth Science & Engineering (IESE), University of Auckland Managing the Overall Uncertainty of Field Development, Taking into Account the Variance in Individual Wells Mathew Barley, Senior Staff Reservoir Engineer, Santos Lunch Break and Networking

Case Study: AS2 Post Frac Analysis - Weve Forgotten 16:30 What We Didnt Know Setting expectations for early exploration in emerging unconventional plays How to quantify success Evaluation suite: coring, logging, stimulation and well testing in the exploration phase Norwests current progress in characterising the Perth basin play(s) Flowback strategy: individual versus commingled flow, completion considerations Lessons learnt and future plans 17:10 17:50 18:00 Steve Broome, Reservoir Engineering Advisor, Norwest Energy The 40 Minute Champagne Roundtable Challenge: Attendees will be divided into working groups and provided with existing data from a shale, CSG or tight gas play somewhere in the world, depending on area of expertise. Each team will have 90 minutes to analyse and appraise the data, determine an initial drilling strategy to maximise resource. At the end of the challenge, each team will nominate a spokesperson to present their findings to the whole room. The winning team will be voted for by attendees.
