SUMMARY:SPE WA Technical Luncheon - Australian LNG: The cost myths and truths
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nIn recent years there have been a number of press articles relating to the high cost of doing business in Australia. The impacts of low productivity\, high-labour costs and poor performance have all been highlighted as ailments with Australia and within the LNG (construction) industry in particular. This has led to the generally held views that Australia is a high-cost environment and Australian LNG is expensive. The headline numbers that are often quoted appear to support these views\, however they overlook and sometimes mask aspects of individual projects that are important to understand before making any broad or generic pronouncements about the competitiveness of the Australian industry in general. \nThis presentation will try and sort out the myths and truths of Australian LNG costs. We will: \n\nIdentify key inadequacies of the generic comparisons that have often been made in the recent past\nDemonstrate the actual impact of several identified issues\nIdentify the real differences and similarities in development and costs of LNG projects in Australia compared to other areas of the world\, in particular the US.\nDemonstrate the importance of decisions made early in the project development cycle by respective owners on the projects and project costs\nExamine the impact of lack of collaboration\n\nPresenter: Martin Wilkes \nMartin Wilkes holds a Masters of Engineering (Chemical and Process) from the University of Newcastle Upon Tyne\, UK. He has worked in the oil and gas industry for more than 25 years\, holding a range of international positions with Shell and Woodside prior to joining RISC. Martin is a principal advisor at RISC. He is a Chartered Chemical Engineer and a Chartered Environmentalist\, a member of the Institution of Chemical Engineers\, and a member of the SPE. \nSPE in conjunction with our sponsors Expro and Quadrant Energy\, are kindly sponsoring students to attend the monthly technical luncheons. Please fill out an application form\, explaining why you are interested in attending the SPE Technical Luncheons. Successful applicants will be notified via email each month from the SPE Student Chapter.

SUMMARY:Hurdles and Hazards in Well Test Analysis
DESCRIPTION:Well Test Analysis (or Pressure Transient Analysis\, PTA) is one of a Reservoir Engineer’s fundamental tools. Every RE is expected to understand and apply it. Yet scratch the surface and the understanding often proves to be patchy and the application faulty. So PTA often ends up being farmed out to a small group of in-house SMEs or external consultants\, leaving REs disconnected from one of the fundamental inputs to their models – which exacerbates the problem. \nWhat hurdles need to be cleared in order to gain the necessary understanding?  What common misunderstandings are preventing REs from plying their trade in the PTA domain? This talk will seek to address some common misapprehensions – and will also highlight some of the hazards that greet the unwary engineer exploring this world\, and how to recognize and overcome them. \nSpeaker: Nick Last \nNick has been working with WT data since the 1980s\, when he trained under some of the pioneers of modern well test analysis in Flopetrol (Schlumberger Testing). After 11 years with Schlumberger\, he became a consultant: planning\, supervising and analyzing well tests all around Asia and Australasia. He has worked with data from every kind of conventional play\, and has advised Major Operators\, small-cap and private companies\, consultancies and service companies. He is now seeking to put himself out of a job by ensuring that any RE can quickly become a capable well test analyst. \n

SUMMARY:Technical Evening - Challenges in Handling Increased Water Production in Matured Gas Condensate Facilities
DESCRIPTION:Challenges in Handling Increased Water Production in Matured Gas Condensate Facilities By Wally Georgie From Maxoil Solutions \nIt is often the case when developing gas condensate fields\, the facilities to separate and treat produced water are not fully considered in the design.  This is due to the fact that most gas condensate fields will not produce formation water until later on in the production life; condensed water will be produced throughout the production life but is at low ratio in relation to the gas production rate.  In subsea production systems where hydrate control is required continuously\, most of the condensed water is handled together with the recovery and regeneration of the hydrate inhibitor such as MEG.  In some cases\, LDHI or methanol is used instead and can provide additional challenges with the Produced Water treatment. \nIf the necessary produced water separation and treatment system is not fully developed in the initial design of the process\, handling the water can be very challenging due to lack of suitable treatment facilities as well as the difficulties in treating it in conventional PW handling facilities. Produced water treatment requirements in gas condensate facilities is different from produced water in crude oil systems.  The produced water treatment should take into account the configuration and design of the separation train of the system as it will have a major impact on the selection of the downstream facilities. \nDifferences in produced water can include low salinity\, tight/secondary emulsions\, small condensate droplets\, chemical used\, high pressure drop\, low temperatures etc.  Due to these challenges common technologies may not be effective in handling PW in gas condensate systems. \nThis presentation will address the different handling issues and the optimum approach in treating the produced water in gas condensate production facilities. \nWally has worked for over 37 years in different areas of oil and gas production facilities\, including corrosion control\, flow assurance\, fluid separation\, separator design\, gas handling and produced water both onshore and offshore.  He started his career in oil and gas services sector in 1978 based in the UK and working globally with different production issues then joined Statoil as senior staff engineer and later as technical advisor in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea till 1999. Working as part of operation team on oil and gas production facilities key focus areas included optimization\, operation trouble-shooting\, de-bottlenecking\, oil water separation\, slug handling\, process verification\, internal corrosion control\, chemical management and flow assurance and myriad other fluid and gas handling issues. He then started working in March 1999 as a consultant globally both offshore and onshore in conventional and unconventional oil and gas operation matters

SUMMARY:SPE WA Technical Luncheon - Autonomous Inflow Control Devices (AICD) - Prediction Modelling
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  \nOptimising oil production from long horizontal wells to obtain maximum reservoir contact and effective reservoir sweep management has been a challenging task. Uneven production and early water or gas breakthrough are the main challenges to achieve the target production. For many years\, inflow control devices (ICDs) which restrict flow by creating additional pressure have been used to mitigate this problem. They are\, however passive in nature and once water or gas breakthrough\, the chocking effect cannot be adjusted without intervention. \nThe autonomous inflow control device (AICD) is an active inflow control device with a self-adjustable design to self-regulate and provide greater chocking when gas and water breaks through. This prevents the well from being flooded when unwanted fluid breakthrough therefore providing the advantage of being able to even out the inflow into well and in addition choke compartments producing unwanted fluids leading to greater recovery\, lower water cuts and gas production. \nPrediction modelling used to select a well candidate process between Passive and Autonomous inflow control device using systematic approach. Analysis on actual results comparing modelling studies\, field application and long term performance. \n  \nPresenter: Dr Ismarullizam Mohd Ismail  \nDr Ismarullizam Mohd Ismail is the Subsurface Engineering Manager for Tendeka based in Aberdeen\, United Kingdom. He is in charge of inflow control and sand control research and development and reservoir modelling team. He has over 13 years of experience in multiple role in sand control and inflow control product starting from application engineer\, operation engineer\, product champion\, technical advisor and currently in research & development. He has work for various major service company and university research. He holds a PhD and MSc. in Mechanical Engineering from University of Leeds\, United Kingdom. \n  \nSPE in conjunction with our sponsors Expro and Quadrant Energy\, are kindly sponsoring students to attend the monthly technical luncheons.

SUMMARY:APOGCE Networking Luncheon & SPE WA Distinguished Lecturer - Verifying Performance and Capability of New Technology for Surface and Subsurface Facilities
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nAs seen in the United States shale oil revolution\, the develop­ment of new technology is an enabler in reducing capital costs\, simplifying production\, increasing the capacity of facilities\, and\, in some cases\, making marginal projects profitable. While deal­ing with significant risk\, the challenge of progressing technology can be overcome through technology qualification. A technolo­gy qualification program (TQP) provides a means of identifying risks and taking the correct steps to mitigate rather than avoid them. This lecture summarizes the required steps in qualifying technology and how to keep track of technology development through the technology readiness level ranking system. \nPresenter: Ed Grave \nEd is an upstream senior technical advi­sor for fractionation and separation at ExxonMobil Upstream Research Company in Spring\, Texas. Recognized in the company for his expertise in advancing new technology\, he led ExxonMobil’s effort to design and qualify a separation system for ultra deep water. Grave initiated and is the technical chairman of the joint industry Separations Technology Research Program on qualifying separation equipment. He also served as vice chair of SPE’s Separation Technology Technical Section. Grave graduated from New Jersey Institute of Technology with an MS degree in 1982.

SUMMARY:OGFG -Technical Event - Smart Geo-structure Interaction and System Modelling of Subsea Facilities
DESCRIPTION:Smart Geo-structure Interaction and System Modelling of Subsea Facilities \nAbstract: \nThe system performance of subsea facilities is highly affected by its interaction with the seabed. By better understanding the system and identification of the key drivers in the design process\, the performance can be optimized and in turn lead to better and more cost-effective foundation solutions. This presentation outlines the geotechnical interaction with subsea systems and how uncertainty in soil properties and modelling of the system response influences outcomes. For the cases of subsea structure foundations and on-seabed pipelines\, the presentation outlines how (i) modelling of the geo-structure interaction\, and (ii) the use of probabilistic methods to assess uncertainty can lead to optimal outcomes and better-informed decisions. Examples of smart foundation solutions for better system performance are also given. \nBio: \nØyvind Torgersrud has been working with the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI) for 6 years\, currently employed at the Perth office in Australia. He graduated from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in 2010 with a M.Sc in Structural Engineering supplemented with subjects in geotechnical engineering and soil structure interaction (SSI). He works on both consulting and research projects on geotechnical design\, complex finite element analyses (FEA)\, SSI and geotechnical earthquake engineering\, both for offshore and onshore projects\, located in Norway\, Australia and South East Asia.

SUMMARY:SPE WA Lecture: Data Science and Machine Learning for Petroleum Engineers
DESCRIPTION:There has been an explosion of interest in big data\, data science and machine learning within the oil & gas industry in recent years. While companies have invested heavily in R&D in these areas\, petroleum and reservoir engineers on the front-lines of operating assets have so far seen very little in the way of practical tools to assist with their work. In this lecture\, https://www.spe-wa.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Nopsema2-1.png will provide subsurface engineers with an overview of these fields\, explain what engineering problems they best address and\, using examples\, demonstrate how these technologies can be applied to real world problems. \n  \nSpeaker: https://www.spe-wa.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Nopsema2-1.png Smart \nhttps://www.spe-wa.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Nopsema2-1.png Smart is a leading technology advisor to subsurface engineering teams in the oil & gas industry. Driven by a relentless passion to help engineers get what they really want\, https://www.spe-wa.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Nopsema2-1.png has led and advised on the technical development of major digital oilfield solutions on some of the largest development projects in the world. From these experiences he deeply believes that successful innovation in Digital Oilfields can be achieved without mega-budgets and should be driven\, not by IT project management\, but by the grass-roots needs of real engineers facing real problems. \n  \nPlease note the new venue and starting time.

SUMMARY:OGFG - Oil & Gas Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM) - Comparison of Australian and Other First World Oil & Gas Industry Practices
DESCRIPTION:This presentation examines the post-treatment management of Oil & Gas NORM (predominantly Radium-26 & Radium-228 in oil producing facilities and Pb-210 in gas producing facilities) within Australia compared with other mature jurisdictions with radioactive and nuclear material handling industries. \nOil and gas radioactive waste storage in Australia is not subject to any prescriptive restrictions with regard to timeliness of disposal and as such managed on a case by case basis\, normally underpinned by the expectation that a solution will present itself in the near future. Currently\, there is no commercially or Government run intractable waste disposal facility available to industries across all state\, territory and Commonwealth jurisdictions within Australia. \nThis combination has led to the on-going ‘temporary’ storage of radioactive material pending an inexpensive\, easy and local disposal solution\, akin to that for non-hazardous waste stream. Firm plans for this type of facility are yet to appear and are not forecast for the near future. \nWhile not specifically prohibited in Australia\, ‘speculative accumulation’ is an on-going liability for the generator of the material\, members of the public or the environment in the vicinity of the stored material and the state/territory government in which it is being stored. \nComparison with other jurisdictions such as the United States (under 40 CFR 261 & 10 CFR 61) shows that the on-going storage and continual growth of material stockpiles\, is identified as a major risk for solid wastes and mixed wastes that include radioactive components and is generally not permissible. \nBy Dean Crouch\, Radiation Services Manager at Oceaneering  \nDean has provided high-level advice and consultation in occupational hygiene\, radiation safety and safety management systems to the oil&gas and mining sectors for the last 10 years. Having held roles on both sides of the regulatory fence on the subject of specialised radiation safety with industrial sealed sources and NORM waste material produced during oil& gas and mining production and decommissioning. Dean has also been lead project advisor/manager for the only two large-scale oil produced NORM disposal campaigns to leave Australia for final disposal overseas. \n

SUMMARY:SPE Technical Luncheon - From 3D Pore Scale Imaging to Reservoir Inputs: Next generation reservoir characterization and description
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nDigital rock analysis\, an emerging technology driven by rapid advances in 3D pore scale imaging and computation\, allows an unprecedented quantitative understanding of the pore scale at which all reservoir processes operate. Digital rock projects have historically focused on applications to core analysis – characterizing details at the pore scale and ensuring that the physics incorporated is correct.  While crucial\, it has been a fundamental limitation to creating widespread commercial value and real growth to date. \nThis lecture highlights how this technology can aid the geoscientist and reservoir engineer today — examples are given where reconciliation and integration of the different types of data from a fundamental understanding of the pore scale adds value. In particular the work is used to offer fast turnaround times\, aids in our understanding of unconventional reservoir core material and explains uncertainties and trends from laboratory measurements (e.g\, issues with heterogeneity\, representative elemental volume\, wettability\, distribution of remaining oil saturation\, EOR processes). \nIndustry is seeking the extension of this technology to reliably derive and predict petrophysical & SCAL data along continuous lengths of core material and to integrate the data to information at increasingly larger scales (log characterization\, geomodels and ultimately reservoir simulators). We conclude with a discussion of further steps being undertaken to create value via methods to image larger quantities of core– defining appropriate representative scales for different rock types\, compactly storing the data\, and developing methods to efficiently make continuous calculations of properties – from the pore to the reservoir scale. \nPresenter: Mark Knackstedt \nMark Knackstedt is Professor at the Department of Applied Mathematics at the Australian National University and advisor to FEI Oil and Gas. He is a current and past (2007-2008\, 2009-2010\, 2012-2013) SPWLA distinguished speaker\, 2015-2016 SPE Distinguished Lecturer\, was awarded the George C. Matson Memorial Award from the AAPG in 2009 and the ENI award for New Frontiers in Hydrocarbon Research in 2010.

SUMMARY:Mobility\, Permeability and Productivity (FESAus Technical Meeting)
DESCRIPTION:Jack Harfoushian\, Schlumberger \nEvent Flyer \nAbstract \nWith today’s depressed price of oil\, underlying uncertainties relating to reserves estimation are subjected to more scrutiny than ever prior to final investment decision. Permeability is a key reservoir property which directly impacts well and reservoir performance\, recovery factor\, and therefore reserves. Although it can be inferred from petrophysical measurements\, such as poro-perm correlations\, NMR or sonic data\, permeability is a dynamic measurement best made in-situ while flowing native reservoir fluids. Drill stem tests have been the traditional way of providing average effective permeability of the entire reservoir\, which is important at initial stages in determining productivity and completion design. Formation testers have come a long way over the past few decades and can now provide representative and accurate permeabilitymeasurements\nover a variety of dimensions. Older generation formation testers were designed primarily to measure pore pressures\, collect fluid samples and give a qualitative estimation of mobility at the tested point. This presentation will highlight some of the pitfalls of such mobility estimations\, especially in thinly laminated deltaic sandstone deposits we encounter in hydrocarbon basins around Australia\, and will examine methods for accurate permeability and productivity measurements with advanced formation testers. \nAbout the presenter \nJack Harfoushian is a Reservoir Engineering Advisor for Schlumberger Australia\, providing data acquisition support and interpretation development for formation testing and sampling services. Jack holds a Bachelor of Engineering degree from Curtin University\, Australia\, and a Master of Engineering degree in Reservoir Engineering from Heriot-Watt University in Scotland\, UK. He has authored a number of papers and has given numerous presentations on formation testing and sampling at various conferences. Jack is a member of the SPE and SPWLA; he has been a member of SPE Distinguished Lecturers committee and currently serves as a SPE section committee member in Perth. \n  \nThis event is available for SPE members at FESAus member prices. \nVisit FESAus website to sign up

SUMMARY:SPE Lecture: Type Wells Used to Reliably Estimate Proved Reserves Using Decline Curve Analysis Method
DESCRIPTION:Oil well decline curve analysis (DCA) is used to estimate remaining reserves throughout the world. DCA is an empirical method: it requires historical production data; no simulation models are needed. It is also easier to apply\, since some operators may not have the resources nor data available to construct models. Sometimes the producing oil field volumes are “too small” to justify data collection. \nHowever\, using DCA requires the estimator to exercise experience and judgement. More often than not\, a more severe decline is used to estimate remaining “Proved” 1P Reserves. This estimate may significantly underestimate the company’s future cashflow and profitability. And future development activities can become uneconomic because the cash from future production is less than the development and operating costs. \nYear on year Proved Reserves upgrades are a symptom of chronic underestimation. Using oil field case study examples\, a type well method is shown to provide compliant “Proved” Reserves estimates. This systematic and easy to apply method relies less on subjective judgement\, and can be applied to both producing and future wells. An important benefit of this approach is more stable reserves figures year on year\, allowing the business to more reliably estimate future cashflow and profitability. \nSpeaker: Dr. Martin Soh \nMartin Soh is an upstream energy professional delivering reservoir modelling\, monitoring and production solutions to oil and gas companies in Australia and around the world. He helps customers economically increase production and ultimate recovery of hydrocarbons by challenging long held beliefs and implementing alternative ideas and innovations. He has a PhD (Distinction) from The University of Western Australia.

SUMMARY:OGFG - July Technical Talk - Sign of the Times: The Graduate Conundrum
DESCRIPTION:In the current challenging market one of the first areas to suffer are graduate programs and graduate recruitment. This responds to immediate needs and pressures without recognizing the future impact when growth returns\, i.e. the challenge to rebuild without breadth\, core capabilities\, Company knowledge and young talent to support the expansion. The better solution is to invest in their development now to support the future\, but how do you make them effective and keep them engaged and busy. This presentation looks at some of the issues we face with the current market and how you might develop effectively for the future. \nAbout the Presenter: \n \nEvan Boyle has lived and worked in Perth for 25 years and has been involved in many of WA’s significant Offshore Oil and Gas Developments. For the last 14 years he has worked for Technip\, and as VP Engineering\, headed its Onshore\, Offshore and Sub Sea engineering activities. He was also a member of Technip’s Executive Committee\, where his roles included Talent Management and the development of the Graduate Program. \n  \nKnowledge Transfer and development of Engineers has always been a passion of Evan’s and this effort was rewarded in 2014 when Technip’s Graduate Program was voted in the top 5 Australian Graduate Programs in the Australian Association of Graduate Employers (AAGE) survey. Evan now leads Graduate Development Solutions and is working with Companies such as ARV to improve their Graduates’ effectiveness\, capability and loyalty.

DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nWith the advent and common usage of high resolution tree gauges\, downhole permanent pressure/temperature gauges\, and continuous flow measurement\, many of the common petroleum engineering calculations and analysis tools for production systems can and have been automated. These include: a) Well Test Analysis\, b) Well Productivity\, c) Static and Flowing Material Balances and Energy Balances. In addition\, the use of rigorous wellbore thermal and phase behaviour models allows the two gauges (wellhead and downhole) to be used as a giant differential pressure meter – making it possible to calculate gas rates and water cuts independently of the flow measurements\, as well as mid-completion bottom hole pressure (BHP). This technical presentation will outline the basic physics involved in these calculations/analyses\, as well as to discuss the implications that these processes will have on instrumentation selection and on engineering work flows. \nThe crux of the argument for these types of automated systems is that it is much easier for an engineer to check the results than to spend his/her entire day just looking for useful information in the database\, then analysing it (or getting someone else to analyse it). Furthermore\, being able to see the “big picture” – seeing what skin\, perm\, productivity and apparent hydrocarbon reservoir volumes are now and how they have changed with time\, allows engineers to make quicker\, more accurate decisions. The use of automated analysis also reduces bias – the computer doesn’t care what the answer is. This presentation will also include case studies for both oil and gas wells. \nSpeaker: Chris Fair \nChris received his BS in Chemical Engineering (1994) and his MS in Petroleum Engineering (1997) from the University of Houston. During his time in school\, he worked in various positions in the chemical industry and oil patch. These included roles in process operations\, project/design engineering\, PVT and fluid mechanics research\, sales engineering\, process control and instrumentation\, downhole nuclear tool testing (both in the laboratory and in the field)\, and laboratory instruction in process control\, technical writing\, and chemical engineering practices (basically\, how not to get “blow’d-up” in a chemical plant). In 1997\, he joined Data Retrieval Corporation (the SPIDR folks). While there he worked on expanding the range & types of wells that could be effectively tested from the surface\, and worked on increasing the company’s markets\, both in the US and overseas. In 2005\, he started Oilfield Data Services\, Inc.\, a reservoir/production engineering consulting firm that specializes in well test interpretation and field management of well flowbacks/exploration DSTs. When not running around offshore or overseas\, Chris is hard at work on a real-time well evaluation package\, designed to track changes in reservoir\, completion and wellbore parameters & provide an “early-warning system” to petroleum engineers. Outside of his “day-job”\, he sings with the Houston Symphony Chorus.

SUMMARY:SPE Lecture: Trends in Well Depth Errors
DESCRIPTION:Well depth was measured until about two decades ago using a relatively standard procedure based on wireline logs\, and it was then essentially fit-for-purpose. The measurement was subject to errors but once identified\, these were generally understandable and manageable by all involved.  The measurement and definition of well depth have since become less set due to a combination of complications\, including: the frequent use of Logging While Drilling (LWD)\, of highly deviated well trajectories\, of floating rigs\, the evolution of tool string configurations\, the curtailment of logging programs\, the systematic use of computers to store and exploit the depth-based data\, etc.  Concurrently\, the training of the personnel involved in the acquisition\, exploitation and management of well data including the well depth has also been reduced\, while new or improved data acquisition technologies\, integration methods and exploitation techniques require or assume well depths of greater accuracy and precision.  The industry is now acquiring higher value / higher cost well data indexed against a depth that has a greater uncertainty than before\, and generally without the information required to mitigate and quantify this uncertainty.  Remarkably\, operators have not expressed widely a concern about this deterioration of well depth.  This will be illustrated by examples from the Australian public record\, to demonstrate that the examples are symptomatic rather than anecdotal.  When these errors become apparent\, they are frequently airbrushed and the problem itself is repressed on account of it being “too hard” or perhaps “too late”.  Errors tolerated at the start of a workflow or a project\, for instance when converting time to depth or when propagating well data into an inversion cube\, are then carried throughout all the subsequent work\, amplifying uncertainties at every step. This is not “the best we can do” with respect to well depth: there are in fact simple ways to mitigate this consequential uncertainty\, the prize being a lesser uncertainty in most activities that rely on or use depth-indexed well data. The solutions are essentially procedural and they often have no incremental cost.  In practice\, the results of work using a better well depth tend to fall into place more readily and more consistently\, yielding tangible reductions in uncertainty. \nSpeaker’s Biography: \nMartin Storey is an independent practising Geoscientist with an academic background in Mathematics and Computer Science and over two decades of international experience in our industry\, combining field operations and the acquisition\, exploitation and management of well data at all stages of the life cycle.  He is based in Western Australia and works as a consultant and trainer\, mainly in Petrophysics\, data acquisition planning\, and well data management\, to a range of companies broad in size and spread.  He has a BSc in Mathematics and Computer Science from Stanford University\, and an MSc in Electrical Engineering from the California Institute of Technology.  He just received the luxury watch that marks his 25-year membership in SPE.

SUMMARY:Facilities Group - June Technical Talk. Performance prediction and management of a degraded mooring system.
DESCRIPTION:Performance Prediction and Management of a Degraded Mooring System. \nIn 2013 OMV commenced an inspection campaign to baseline the condition of the mooring for the FPSO Raroa in the Maari field off New Zealand. During this campaign extensive damage was discovered in a number of the mooring legs. This damage threatened the integrity of the mooring and OMVs ability to safely produce onto the asset. A partial repair was conducted in 2013 but further damaged re-occurred in an unrepaired leg over the subsequent year. A final\, complete\, repair was completed early in 2016 which corrected the issues in the mooring and positioned it to perform its duty for the remaining life of the field. Through out this period of actual damage and predicted degradation an extensive campaign of monitoring\, modeling and inspection was conducted to evaluate risk levels\, support decisions on project timing and demonstrate sufficient integrity remained to produce. This presentation outlines some of the methods and approaches used during this campaign\, discusses some of the lessons learned and gives insights into management of badly behaved moorings. \n \nBy Stuart Wales\, Principal Engineer\, AMOG Consulting PTY \nMr Stuart Wales has over 20 years experience in the offshore industry\, covering a range of sectors from subsea development and deep-water installation through to R&D. Mr Wales was a Project Manager on The West Seno Mooring Project which won AMOG an Engineering Excellence Award in 2011\, and project managed AMOGs support to OMV in managing and mitigating the degraded mooring on the Maari FPSO. He is currently an Associate Director and Principal Engineer at AMOG Consulting \nThanks to Our Venue Sponsor:

SUMMARY:Young Professionals Technical 101 Series: PVT 102 - PVT Data Use and EOS Modelling
DESCRIPTION:  \nAccurate knowledge of hydrocarbon fluid behaviour as it is produced from reservoir to surface helps determine the engineering and economic decisions that need to be made regarding a well’s completion and future. Once a representative sample has been captured\, it must be safely transported to a laboratory where it will undergo detailed PVT (Pressure / Volume / Temperature) analysis. \nReservoir engineers\, physicists\, geologists\, and production engineers all use live fluid sample analyses in making decisions. For example\, fluid property data may be used with other physical property data from a nearby well to estimate the potential reserves of an exploration prospect. After an exploration prospect has been drilled\, well test data can be used with the fluid analyses to define the discovery’s potential reserves. Reservoir fluid samples from the discovery can be used to determine the properties of hydrocarbons in the reservoir. This information\, in turn\, can be used by geologists and engineers to justify further appraisal drilling of the discovery field. From several appraisal wells\, fluid samples can be analysed to help determine plans for field development\, design for production facilities\, equipment needs and pipelines.  If improved or secondary recovery projects are initiated\, then routine fluid sampling may well become part of the project maintenance. \nIn his second presentation\, Dr Turker Karaman will discuss on where and how the PVT data is used\, give information on the work flow of PVT experiments\, talk on the construction of an EOS model in addition to the assumptions made while constructing a model. \nTurker Karaman\, Ph.D.: Studied Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering at Middle East Technical University in Ankara\, Turkey. He has worked as Data Acquisition Engineer with Expro in Angola and Australia Branches. Formerly worked as Senior Reservoir Engineer at Turkish Petroleum Corporation before he joins Expro. In his current role he is working as a Principal Technical Professional in Global Reservoir Engineering Support Team for Halliburton Testing and Subsea. He has several articles on prediction of multiphase flow properties in porous media. \n  \nPVT 102 – PVT Data Use and EOS Modelling \nCost:          This event is FREE for SPE WA members ($10.00 for non-members) and is proudly sponsored by Halliburton Australasia. \nWhen:        Thursday\, June 16. 12:00 – 13:30 \nWhere:       BGC Centre Conference Room\, 28 The Esplanade (entrance off Howard Street\, opposite Andaluz) \nLunch will be provided.

SUMMARY:SPE Technical Luncheon - Cracking Stress from Interpreted Reflection Seismic\, in a Nutshell
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  \nAll exploration\, drilling and production well objectives require drilling with or against Earth stresses. Plate vectors from GPS and SHmax vectors from earthquakes provide very limited predictive stress for the exploration and production industry. Wellbore measured stress data are sparse\, post-drill and after the problem. SHmax magnitudes are modelled and their directions\, being vectors\, should not be averaged. The industry can have accurate 3D quantified Earth stresses\, pre-drill and predictive generated from interpreted 2 or 3D interpreted reflection seismic surveys that companies have already paid for. \nStress consistent seismic interpretation and accurate fault histories can recognise fault sealed compartments at the prospect stage thus stemming the cost-waste and surprises created by ‘naughty rocks’ during the big-ticket appraisal and development drilling phases. Well designs can be simplified while risk is reduced\, fractures emphasised\, production maximised\, fault plane collapse and sloughing hazards negotiated\, sidetracks avoided\, uneconomic fault sealed compartments identified\, and often over-pressures mapped for EOHS protection. Lower oil prices are seeing sizable cuts to drilling programmes requiring fewer wells\, longer well life and lower costs. Expensive wells are frequently the first to be cut\, however\, it is these very wells\, that if most effectively stress planned\, are often the key to higher flow rates and long-term cash flow.\nPetroleum authorities would do well to encourage that all wells undergo this simple  testing process as part of an integrated exploration and production approach to cost efficient and safer well design. \nPresenter: John K Davidson \nMr John K. Davidson conducted Exxon’s 3-week\, field-based\, structural geology courses in western North America from 1974-75. Since 1983 he has conducted an annual field-based course in western England and Wales. The latter courses provided the link between structural geology and seismically recognisable\, globally synchronous compressional pulses which can be used to predict present Earth stress. From 2000 the courses have evolved into a patented methodology and software programme for quantified stress predictions on fields and prospects in remote locations. In 2015 he sold the software to Stochastic Simulation Limited. \n  \n

SUMMARY:SPE Lecture- May 2016: Assessment of mechanical weakening induced by fluid injection in a poorly consolidated sandstone
DESCRIPTION:This talk presents a novel rock mechanics testing method for remotely monitoring\, detecting and assessing mechanical weakening and possible sand production in sandstone reservoirs during water flooding or during drilling with water-based muds. Rock mechanics triaxial tests are conducted on sandstone reservoir samples subjected to realistic in situ stresses\, pore pressure\, and temperature. During these tests\, in addition to the conventional stress and strain monitoring techniques\, the new approach involves a combination of ultrasonic and micro-seismic monitoring techniques allowing for a remote detection and spatial localization of the possible mechanical weakening that ultimately leads to sand production. The original testing protocol allows for the substitution of the in situ fluid by a water-based fluid with minimal impact on the in situ effective stress in the rock sample. The weakening effect of the substituting fluid can therefore be discriminated from any mechanical artefact associated with a possible reduction in the effective pressure during the substitution. \nThanks to the conventional stress-strain monitoring technique\, it has been observed that (i) the strength and static elastic moduli decrease when water saturates the pore space; (ii) the injection of water in a critically loaded sample initially saturated either with air or inert oil induces a drastic increase in the creep rate and the development of a mechanical instability. Thanks to the ultrasonic and micro- seismic monitoring of the fluid substitution process\, it has been observed that (iii) the mechanical instability is mainly localized in the water-flooded zone; (iv) this instability corresponds to a loss of cohesion between the sandstone grains; (v) during oil substitution by water\, the instability is delayed in comparison with the water injection in the dry sandstone and the loss of cohesion is less pronounced. This loss of grain-to-grain cohesion is expected to lead to sand production in weakly consolidated siliciclastic reservoirs. In addition\, the injected fluids significantly affect the ultrasonic P-wave velocity: (vi) increases during oil injection; (vii) decrease during water injection. This helps in detecting the advancement of the fluid front within the rock’s pore space. \nSpeaker: Dr.  Jeremie Dautriat \nJeremie Dautriat is a CSIRO Research Scientist involved in Rock Physics and Rock Mechanics characterization and supervises the Geomechanics and Geophysics laboratory based in Australian Resources Research Center\, Perth. He obtained a Ph.D. in Rock Mechanics from IFP Energies nouvelles and Ecole Poytechnique (France) on the characterization of the Hydro-Mechanical behaviour of heterogeneous carbonate rocks in 2009. His research focuses on fluid/matrix interactions and their impacts on the elastic and mechanical properties of porous rocks. He is mainly interested in the development of multi-scale approach to predict petrophysical property evolution induced by mechanical damage and/or reactive fluid percolation. \n  \n

SUMMARY:SPE Facilities Group & AINDT Technical Evening - RVI Revolution. How it's reducing risk\, time & costs in our industry.
DESCRIPTION:Title: RVI REVOLUTION. How it’s reducing risk\, time & costs in our industry. \n  \nAbstract: Remote Visual Inspection (RVI) has evolved from a ‘nice to have’ to an industry expectation. In fact\, it’s such a focus in some areas for RVI that a benchmark target of 2020 is the date set for confined space entry elimination on some Oil & Gas Facilities. RVI has been evolving in highly technical and specialized industries such as aviation and nuclear for decades\, proving its benefits through quality\, risk-reducing inspection programs and ultimately cost saving. Now\, this technology is exploding in our industry bringing the same benefits; a few success stories will show how to overcome the major RVI challenges in today’s facilities. The goal of how to enter\, how to acquire\, and increasingly more important\, how to get there safely. \n  \n \nAbout Jason: he worked for more than 20 years domestically and internationally on installations\, commissioning\, and start-up managing multi-disciplined activities involving the use of technology.
