Abstract:

The Australian exploration landscape experienced an escalation of unconventional activity in 2012. Drilling targeting shale oil and gas, basin-centred tight gas, and coal gas is on the increase compared to previous years. Drilling for onshore oil and large offshore gas continued to be a staple activity for the year although, in general, offshore, the number of wells drilled is continuing to decline, in line with previous years. A number of very large 3D seismic surveys were acquired in 2012 and this is hoped to provide many future drilling targets. Within Australia, 19 new offshore conventiona

Abstract:

Offshore oil and gas operations carry a high risk of explosions, which can be efficiently prevented in many cases. The two most used approaches for prevention are: (1) the “International Electrotechnical Commission System for Certification to Standards Relating to Equipment for Use in Explosive Atmospheres” (IECEx) and (2) European “Atmosphere Explosible” (ATEX) schemes. The main shortcoming for the IECEx scheme is in the fact that it does not cover nonelectrical equipment, while for the ATEX scheme, it is due to the allowed self-certification for a certain category of equipment in areas with

Small oil fields are expected to play an increasingly prominent role in the delivery of global crude oil production. As such, the Energy Return on Investment (EROI) parameter for three small offshore fields are investigated following a well-documented methodology, which is comprised of a “bottom-up” estimate for lifting and drilling energy and a “top-down” estimate for construction energy. EROI is the useable energy output divided by the applied energy input, and in this research, subscripts for “lifting”, “drilling”, and “construction” are used to differentiate the types of input energies acc

In many ways, the drive toward new efficiencies and step changes in well-construction performance has taken on an even greater sense of urgency. Further advancements in automation and innovation in well construction are recognized globally as keys to unlocking new opportunities in the ever-changing world in which we live.

Abstract:

The paper presents results of generalized laboratory studies from an array of petrophysical parameters of reservoir rocks (potential hydrocarbon reservoirs). The study is targeted at well-known horizons of productive strata of the Meso- Cenozoic sedimentary basin. The area under study includes oil and gas onshore and deep offshore fields in Azerbaijan that have been under active continuous developments. The development of these natural hydrocarbon accumulations has over a century-long history, which has shown that the major oil and gas deposits are associated with the South Caspian and Kura de

The Arquebus-1 well was drilled in 1991 on exploration permit WA-206-P located in the southern portion of the Browse Basin.

The Arquebus-1 well tested Middle to Upper Jurassic sandstones in a large three-way dip closed structure along the main Jurassic basin margin fault system, which has subsequently been inverted by Tertiary wrench faulting.

The models utilized self‐potential curve shape, core, and seismic character analyses, combined with computer modeling studies, engineering data, and scanning electron microscope studies.

In recent years exploration activities have therefore also been directed towards deeper clastic plays where Palaeozoic deposits may act as petroleum source rocks. Carboniferous coaly sections ar

Carbonate reservoirs are increasingly becoming an important resource for hydrocarbon production because they contain the majority of remaining proven oil and gas reserves. In this context, carbonate reservoirs could represent new opportunities; however, there is still a lack of understanding of their subsurface status and characterization. Carbonate reservoirs are more difficult to evaluate than their siliciclastic counterparts because many aspects of carbonate rocks make their seismic image signature complex and difficult to interpret. Moreover, the presence of complex overburden such as shal
