The Petroleum Geology of Southeast Asia
Dates: Thursday, 13 September–Sunday, 16 September
Time: 09:00–17:00
Instructor: Ian Longley (Longshot Oil & Gas Pty Ltd, Perth, WA, Australia)
Fee: Professionals/Students US $2,750
Includes: Course notes (CD), morning and afternoon refreshments, lunch and dinner (one evening)
Limit: 35 people
The main objectives of this course are:
Southeast Asian basins share a common tectonic history and consequently display similar stratigraphic patterns, trap styles and hydrocarbon charge systems. The arbitrary political divisions and local stratigraphic nomenclature schemes tend to mask the geological simplicity of the region. A better understanding of the regional geology plays and exploration concepts established in some basins allows the explorer to apply these in unproven or less explored analogous basins in the region.
This course is ideally suited for:
Notes: Course notes will be provided on CD. No hard copies of the course notes will be provided. Participants are requested to bring a laptop to this short course. Overnight accommodations are not included.
Society for Sedimentary Geology (SEPM)
Sequence Stratigraphy and Depositional Architecture for Graduate Students
Date: Saturday, 15 September
Time: 08:00–17:00
Instructor: Maarten Weimer (Sarawak Shell Berhad, Lutong, Malaysia)
Fee: Graduate Students Only US $25
Includes: SEPM Student Membership and refreshments
Limit: 25 people
Content: 16 PDH; 1.6 CEU
This course is designed to teach young geologists/graduates about stratigraphic geometries as well as linked patterns of sand distribution in space and time.
This course makes use of outcrop data and subsurface derived data such as seismic, log and core and consists of a mix of lectures and hands-on exercises. The dataset is focused on Northwest Borneo, but not exclusively so.
Course contents include basic seismic/sequence stratigraphy ground rules and will discuss stratigraphic geometries in terms of accommodation space changes. The interplay of stratigraphic geometries and structural deformation is a key theme. Patterns of sand distribution and their controls in different clastic depositional settings such as Deltaic, Alluvial and Deep Water will be
discussed.

Time: 08:00–17:00
Instructor: Clif Jordan (Integrated Data Services, Inc., Bonne Terre, Missouri, USA)
Fee: Professionals/Students US $1,050
Includes: Course materials, morning and afternoon refreshments and lunch
Limit: 30 people
This course is intended to be an overview of carbonate geology for a wide audience of participants, ranging from those needing to review the basics of the science to those involved with detailed subsurface problems to resolve. Presented to several hundred exploration/production geoscientists around the world, it is especially relevant to the carbonate geology of the Southeast Asia
and the Pacific region and examples from the region will be used.
The basic elements include:
Case histories from several countries are presented as examples
throughout the course; these include conventional and nonconventional
carbonate reservoirs.
Notes: This two-day course is accompanied by post conference Field Trip #5, Thursday, 20 September–Sunday, 23 September. The course and field trip are independent and registration for both is recommended but not required.

Characterization and Development of Coalbed Methane Reservoirs
CANCELED
Dates: Saturday, 15 September–Sunday, 16 September
Time: 08:00–17:00
Instructor: Tim Hower (MHA Petroleum Consultants, Denver, Colorado, USA)
Fee: Professionals/Students US $1,100
Includes: Course materials, morning and afternoon refreshments and lunch
Limit: 25 people
This two-day course will introduce the participants to the characterization of coals and provide methods of evaluation of the performance and reserves/resources. The instructor will share the lessons learned from the extensive experience gained from the world’s most developed coal bed methane industry.
A summary of the topics to be covered is:
Day 1 – Characterization of the Coals
Day 2 – Performance Evaluation, Reserves/Resources and Lessons Learned

Applied Problems in Interpreting Clastic Depositional Systems
CANCELED
Dates: Saturday, 15 September–Sunday, 16 September
Time: 08:00–17:00
Instructor: Robert C. Shoup (Clastic Reservoir Systems, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia)
Fee: Professionals US $550,
Students US $275 (limited)
Includes: Course manual, morning and afternoon refreshments and lunch
Limit: 30 people
This course is ideally suited for:
The role of a subsurface geoscientist in any oil company is to find and/or develop commercial hydrocarbon reserves. To find those reserves, we must know where to find the reservoir. To develop those reserves, we must know how to delineate the reservoir.
The purpose of this course is to help you understand the various clastic reservoir systems. You will learn how to find and delineate them by giving you a mental picture of how these systems look so you may see them in your mind’s eye. This will be accomplished through a wide variety of correlation and mapping problems, all of which are based on real exploration and field development examples.
Modern and outcrop analogs will be used, along with subsurface examples to provide the interpreter with a sound understanding of the reservoir distribution, both laterally and vertically, of the clastic depositional systems most commonly encountered as oil and gas reservoirs.
The exercises in this course are designed to give you a strong working knowledge of the many depositional settings you are likely to encounter in your career. They are aimed at helping you to learn how to recognize them from well logs, and how to map them.
The learning outcomes are:
This course is exercise oriented and taught in PowerPoint format. The exercises are designed to give you a strong working knowledge of the many depositional settings you are likely to encounter in your career. They are aimed at helping you learn how to recognize them from well logs and how to map them.

Reserves/Resources Estimation
CANCELED
Date: Thursday, 20 September
Time: 08:00–17:00
Instructors: Doug Peacock, David Ahye and Adrian Starkey (Gaffney Cline & Associates, Singapore)
Fee: Professionals US $500, Students US $250 (limited)
Includes: Course notes, morning and afternoon refreshments
and lunch
Limit: 30 people
The morning session will provide an overview of the reserves and resource definitions and guidelines for classification; primarily focused on the globally recognized PRMS. Key differences between the use of SEC and PRMS definitions will also be highlighted.
The key techniques that are used to estimate reserves and resources will be presented, including their applicability over the value chain of a project. An overview of methods used to quantify and describe uncertainty, e.g. probabilistic and deterministic, will be discussed.
Unconventional resources will be the focus of the afternoon session. Gaffney Cline & Associates will provide an overview of how conventional resource estimation and uncertainty techniques can be applied to unconventional resources — the pitfalls associated with such application to demonstrate the appropriate risks.

Evaluating Reservoir Quality, Seal Potential and Net Pay
Dates: Thursday, 20 September–Friday, 21 September
Time: 08:30–17:00
Instructor: Prof. John Kaldi, Australian School of Petroleum, University of Adelaide, Adelaide, South Australia)
Fee: Professionals US $800, Students US $400 (limited)
Includes: Course notes, morning and afternoon refreshments and lunch
Limit: 30 people
This course is ideally suited for:
These professionals will benefit from the straightforward and intuitive presentation of principles governing both petroleum and CO2 migration and accumulations, as well as practical applications to determine net pay and seal evaluation.
This course demonstrates the use of basic rock properties, wireline logs, capillary pressure and relative permeability data to evaluate reservoir rock quality, seal capacity (thickness of hydrocarbon or CO2 column a seal can hold before it leaks), recovery efficiency and to determine location of reservoir fluid
contacts. It also explains the main controls on fault seals, and methods used in evaluating these.
This popular course has been presented previously as AAPG, IPA and PESA Continuing Education Short Course, as well as comprising part of the internal training program for several major oil and gas companies.
The course content covers the following:
Notes: Participants are encouraged to bring a hand calculator, colored pencils and a ruler.
Students: There are a limited number of discounted spots available for students on a first-come, first-served basis. If a discounted space
is still available when you register online it will show up during the registration process. If discounted spots are no longer available, you
