Dear IAGI members : IAGI will be conduct Luncheon Talk, please register now : ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------
Date: Wednesday, March 24, 2004 Time: 11.30 am -01.30 pm Venue: Sasono Mulyo II, Lobby Level, Le Meridien Hotel, Jl. Jend. Sudirman Kav. 18-20 Jakarta 10220 PERTAMINA EXPLORATION DISCOVERIES 2003 Amril Adnan Vice President New Ventures PT PERTAMINA (PERSERO) Abstract During 2003 PERTAMINA drilled 19 exploration wells in Java and Sumatra wherein 6 wells yields most significant discoveries and 7 wells found hydrocarbon in lesser level of success. Those important discoveries located in Randu Blatung of East Java, Pondok Tengah and Karang Baru of West Java, Tika and Suban Barat of South Sumatra. The significances of those discoveries may not only determine in term of its value, but also in term of concepts and impact to continuing exploration. Randublatung-1/A drilled as a twin for previous blew-up Randublatung-1. The twin well confirmed a minimum of 150 m gas column in Kujung limestone reservoir. GWC have not found down to TD in 3112 mMD. The discovered reservoir characteristics match with model of NE-SW Banyuurip-Randublatung karstified vugular porosity trend, plus new learning to EW intensive fracture systems that significantly improve reservoir quality of Randublatung location. Additional gas reserve plays a role to abiding gas business in Java. Pondok Tengah and Karang Baru discoveries are the newest points and also the best with 205 m netpay in Pondok Tengah in the learning sequence of rift related play, which cover Baturaja and TalangAkar reservoirs in West Java. The learning curve has been assembled from informations gained from Tambun, Wanajaya, Tambun Kelapa, Melandong, and presently Pondok Tengah and Karang Baru exploratory wells, located at Ciputat and Cipunegara graben systems. Models of bounding-fault margin, graben-deep, and flexure margin may guide next exploration in other less explored areas, especially in northern part West Java. For area close to central part of West Java, the Sukamulya (as part of Tunggul Maung Structure) gas discovery may not so significant in reserves found, but the information is valuable to future oil hunting in area close to present day Bogor-trough gas kitchen. Small discovery of oil in unconformity trap (in Tunggul Maung-2) suggesting a model for trapping mechanism in earliest oil migration into Mio-Pliocene structural-stratigraphic trap, related to bulge systems in thrust front. Tika discovery of South Sumatra is one of continuing success stories for the "go deeper" paradigm. Though play of Baturaja and Talangakar objective area those of the oldest play in Sumatra, it still creates a chain of success in area which is overlooks, or left behind unexplored by imprecise assumptions. Also the Suban Barat discovery in South Sumatra is a chain of other success story, wherein related to Baturaja, Talangakar, and basement as objectives. Concerning basement, since Suban Barat is structurally deeper -down flankly of nearby proven field of Suban, Suban Barat compel more question for "Do we have water contact in basement reservoir?" Concerning Baturaja, Suban Barat has found its thickness of 281 m; the thickest ever penetrated around. The presentation will share main results and knowledge gained from those PERTAMINA's Best of Five Discoveries in 2003. About the speaker Amril Adnan is the Vice President New Ventures of PERTAMINA Upstream. In this position he is responsible for PERTAMINA exploration activities in Indonesia -from Sumatra thru Papua, and overseas -i.e. Malaysia, Vietnam and Iraq. His 25 years of experience covered almost all regions of Indonesia's exploration objectives; started as Exploration Geologist in Pangkalan Brandan for Sumatra exploration; Chief Geologist in Cirebon for Java exploration; Head Section of Regional Evaluation in PERTAMINA Jakarta Office; Exploration Manager of Eastern Indonesia Region, covering Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Papua; and then back to Sumatra as Exploration Manager of this region. In late 90's he intensify his managerial charge as General Manager for JOB Pertamina-YPF Jambi-Merang Block, before come to present position as Vice President New Ventures. Amril Adnan contributes to our scientific community by serving IAGI in many events and postings along with publishing many papers concerning geology and exploration subjects. He is currently Chairman of IAGI Jakarta Chapter.
