 Final Timetable & Short Abstracts

Non-seismic geophysical methods are today used in all aspects of hydrocarbon exploration and production.  In addition to basin analysis investigating new play concepts and basin maturation, sub-salt and sub-basalt imaging, and near surface corrections; such methods are also being used for reservoir studies, in particular to track the movement of reservoir fluids, optimize sweep efficiency, identify bypassed pay, and to predict fluid-related issues such as water breakthrough.  

The PESGB will host a seminar on Non-Seismic Geophysics – Modern Methods and Practice on 6-7 October at The Royal Over-Seas League, London.  The object of the seminar will be to inform  geologists, engineers and non-specialist  geophysicists about the modern methodologies and present case studies, each presentation will be preceded by a summary of basic principles suitable for the non-specialist geoscientist and engineer.

The Keynote address will be given by Dirk Smit Head of Exploration R&D and Novel Technology for Shell.  SEG Distinguished Lecturer Len Srnka (ExxonMobil Upstream Research Company) will present a paper on Illuminating Reservoirs with Electromagentics, many thanks to the SEG for supporting the seminar. Seminar topics will include:

• Controlled Source Electro-Magnetics (CSEM)
• Marine and land magnetotellurics
• Gravity gradiometry
• Airborne gravity
• High resolution aero-magnetic surveying
• Cross borehole electromagnetics
• Borehole gravity methods
• Joint modeling of CSEM, seismic and well-log data
• Regional and basin studies
