Abstract:

The Tanami oil discovery was made in 1991. The discovery well was drilled from an onshore location on Varanus Island and deviated into the offshore area. A small, 6.8 m oil column was intersected at the top of the Lower Cretaceous Flag Sandstone Member of the Barrow Group. Beneath the moveable oil, a residual zone of 19.8 m was encountered.Petrophysical, petrological and core analysis data indicate different reservoir properties in the moveable oil, residual oil and water zones. These results show that the oil in place has retarded diagenesis and associated reduction in porosity and permeabili

The trap formed along the northern edge of a deep WNW–ESE-trending submarine canyon, which was created by Volgian erosion of intra-Heather, Oxfordian-aged sandstones and then infilled with Draupne Formation shales.

Whether oil futures market can perform price discovery function well is very important in global economics and energy markets. The interaction between oil spot and futures prices exists due to intraday information transfer and arbitrage trading. However, the traditional methods used in price discovery analysis ignore the interaction, and thus introduce the biased conclusions. This paper uses simultaneous equation analyze the interaction effect between oil spot and futures returns, estimates the model by the method of modified identification through heteroskedasticity (modified ITH) and examine

Abstract:

In June 1954 Nevada became the twenty-ninth oil-producing state in the United States (Picard 1955). Interestingly, production was from volcanic rocks from the open-hole interval 6,450 to 6,730 ft (1,966 to 2,051 m) in the Oligocene Garrett Ranch volcanics, an unexpected reservoir in the kind of rocks rarely productive anywhere in the world. The pour-point (65-80° F) and gravity (26-29° API) of the crude were high, similar to oils found in the Eocene Green River Formation of the Uinta Basin, northeast Utah. Cumulative production in the field through September 1978 was 3.3 million barrels of oil

This study empirically investigates the contributions of three crude oil-based exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the price discovery process. Using daily data on the crude oil spot, near month crude oil futures, and three crude-oil-based ETFs, we analyze the price discovery contributions of the five-price series. We use two information share measures, namely the generalized information share (GIS) measure (Lien and Shrestha, 2014) and the permanent-temporary decomposition (PT/GG) measure (Gonzalo and Granger, 1995). We find that the futures market dominates the price discovery process. However,

After an interval of very low drilling rates between 1973 and 1978, exploration activity returned to strong levels for a second cycle of discovery between 1978 and 1988.

Accordingly, various policy options to manage the oil revenues in order to avert an oil resource curse have been proposed.

Oil is so important that publishing reserve (even production) data has become a political act. Most of the dispute between the so-called pessimists (mainly retired geologists) and the optimists (mainly economists) is due to their using different sources of information and different definitions. The pessimists use technical (confidential) data, whereas the optimists use the political (published) data.

In addition, using an EGARCH approach, there is evidence that the discovery of oil has reduced the volatility or risk of the company and therefore potentially the economy as a whole.

Abstract:

Nadym-Pursk oil and gas region has been one of the main areas for the production of hydrocarbon raw materials since the sixties of the last century. A significant part of hydrocarbon deposits is at the final stage of field development. An increase in gas and oil production is possible subject to the discovery of new fields. The search for new hydrocarbon deposits must be carried out taking into account an integrated research approach, primarily the interpretation of seismic exploration, the creation of geological models of sedimentary basins, the study of geodynamic processes and thermobaric p

Abstract:

The Laminaria-1 discovery in the southeast of AC/P8 is a major new Timor Sea oil accumulation. The discovery well, drilled in October 1994, encountered a gross oil column of 102 m in deltaic to jiearshore marine sediments of the Callovian-Oxfordian Laminaria Formation. On production test, a maximum flow rate of 7,507 BOPD was recorded through a 5/8 in. choke. The oil is a light (59° API), undersaturated oil with a GOR of 175 SCF/STB. Laminaria-1 was the first well drilled by the AC/P8 Joint Venture since resumption of exploration following resolution of the international boundary between Austr

Abstract:

Exploration for petroleum in Queensland began in the Bowen and overlying Surat Basins in 1908. During the next 50 years a few small fields were found. The discovery of oil at Moonie in 1961 and a number of gas fields on the Roma Shelf during the 1960s triggered extensive seismic and drilling programs. This resulted in additional discoveries and the construction of an oil pipeline to Brisbane in 1964 and a gas pipeline in 1969. To date more than 680 exploration and 350 appraisal wells have been drilled. Approximately 16 × 109 m3 of gas and 5 × 106 ML of oil have been discovered. There is potent

AbstractThe Crosby Warren Field is located onshore the UK, south of the Humber Estuary. It was discovered by RTZ Oil & Gas with the CW-1 (L46/12-3) well in 1986. The oil reservoir is Carboniferous, Namurian, Beacon Hill Flags sandstone, with gas found in Namurian sandstones of the Rough Rock, and the discovery well originally flowed waxy 40° API oil at rates of 45 bopd, which increased to nearly 700 bopd following fracture stimulation. The Beacon Hill Flags are a 10 m-thick group of laminated sandstones within a substantial gross thickness of sandstones, silts, muds and occasional thin cla

Abstract:

This paper is concerned with optimal strategies for drilling in an oil exploration model. An exploration area contains n1 large and n2 small oilfields, where n1 and n2 are unknown, and represented by a two-dimensional prior distribution π. A single exploration well discovers at most one oilfield, and the discovery process is governed by some probabilistic law. Drilling a single well costs c, and the values of a large and small oilfield are v1 and v2 respectively, v1>v2>c>0. At each time t=1,2,…, the operator is faced with the option of stopping drilling and retiring with no reward, or

Abstract:

The low side fault-dependent Kipper oil and gas discovery is unique in many ways:It is the first significant hydrocarbon discovery in the Golden Beach Group. The primary S-1 reservoir has a 328 m gross gas column with a 14 m gross oil leg, with estimated in place oil and gas volumes of 30 MMSTB and 750 BSCF respectively.The S-1 reservoir is top-sealed by a volcanic unit which is over 100 metres thick and separates the Golden Beach Group from the overlying Latrobe Group.Critical fault seal is interpreted to be dependent on the complex inter-relationship of Golden Beach Group stratigraphy: fluvi
