South Sulawesi is a frontier petroleum exploration province with proven hydrocarbon
source rocks, reservoir rocks, generating kitchen areas and, most importantly,
hydrocarbon accumulations. The trip will study components of the Cenozoic Petroleum
Systems in the South Arm and Toraja area of Sulawesi. The stratigraphic and structural
styles of the petroleum systems will be studied along with active gas seeps, source,
reservoir and seal rocks. The agenda will suit all types of geologists and reservoir
engineers from managers to junior technical staff and will touch on a broad range of
material from sediments through stratigraphic concepts and regional geology. Sulawesi
has a unique cultural heritage and there will be opportunities to experience this. The
trip will take 4 days and is not physically challenging. The trip leaders have a
decade of field experience across the Asian region and are leading experts on
carbonate reservoirs and the geology of Sulawesi. The geology is excellent, the
scenery is stunning and the culture is unique. Hope you can join us!
Sulawesi excursions are very popular, and to facilitate transportation this trip is
limited to 15 participants, so early booking is essential.
WHO WILL BENEFIT: All oil industry geotechnical and engineering staff as well as those
from mining or academic background with an interest in Tertiary sedimentary basins.

COURSES
COURSE #1
COURSE : SILICICLASTIC SEQUENCE STRATIGRAPHY - Concepts and Applications
Date : OCTOBER 12-13, 2003
Venue : Jakarta Convention Center
Limit : 40 Persons; 30 persons registered, 10 seats left!
Cost : US$ 500 (for IPA Professional Division Member) / US$ 550 (for non-member)
Instructor : Dr. Henry W. Posamentier - Anadarko Petroleum Corporation
The participant will be exposed to sequence stratigraphic principles and will be shown
how to apply them. Emphasis will be on understanding first principles, rather than
memorizing models. In this way, the participant will learn how to correctly modify
the sequence stratigraphic model to accommodate local conditions of sediment flux,
tectonics, and physiography.
Equal emphasis will be placed on utilization of seismic and well-log/core data.
Recognition criteria on a variety of databases will be developed for sequence
boundaries and other key surfaces such as ravinement surfaces, flooding surfaces,
maximum flooding surfaces, and down lap surfaces.
About the instructor:
Henry W. Posamentier is the General Manager of Geosciences and Technology for Anadarko
Canada. Prior to joining Anadarko in 2001, he was with Veritas Exploration Services
(2000-2001), the Atlantic Richfield Co. (1991-2000), Exxon Production Research Co. and
Esso Resources Canada, Ltd. (1979-1991), and at Rider University, Assistant Professor
of Geology (1974-1979).
COURSE #2
Course : Cenozoic Tectonics of Indonesia: Problems and Models
Date : Monday, October 13, 2003
Venue : Jakarta Convention Center
Limit : 30 Persons; 19 persons registered, 11 seats left!
Cost : US$ 250 (for IPA Professional Division Member) / US$ 300 (for non-member)
Instructor : Robert Hall - Royal Holloway University of London
The Cenozoic was a period of major geological changes, which influenced life, and
climate in SE Asia and Indonesia was at the center of these events. Indentation of
Asia by India modified the Eurasian continent but was India-Asia collision the driving
force of events in SE Asia? Other processes were clearly important and Indonesia
illustrates the speed of change, the unexpected interplay of convergence and
extension, and the importance of subduction as an engine of change. In this one-day
course the Cenozoic geological development of Indonesia will be discussed in the
context of a regional plate tectonic model for SE Asia and the SW Pacific. The model
is illustrated by computer animations, which will be available to participants on CD.
The course will give an overview of techniques used in making plate reconstructions,
and the data available to test them, such as isotopic dating, palaeomagnetism, GPS
measurements and tomographic models. It will then focus on particular parts of
Indonesia and surrounding regions of importance for understanding Cenozoic tectonics
and discuss different models for the development of these areas. The tectonics of the
region provides a context for understanding the distribution of resources,
particularly hydrocarbons. The course will explore this context, and the
manifestations of plate movements such as igneous activity, erosion and sedimentation,
and environmental change. SE Asia is an unusual area that deserves new models and
thinking; conventional models for basin and orogenic development cannot be routinely
applied, and may in fact mislead rather than inform our understanding.
About the instructor:
Professor of Geology and Director of the SE Asia Research Group at Royal Holloway
University of London. Completed PhD in 1974 on ophiolites and sutures in eastern
Turkey and later worked in the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East for several
years. Since 1984 has worked mainly in SE Asia, principally in Indonesia. Research
interests: Regional geology of SE Asia and the western Pacific. Island arc origin and
evolution. Plate tectonic reconstructions of SE Asia and the west Pacific. Seismic
tomography, mantle processes and tectonics of the region. Tropical sedimentation,
climate and tectonics. Implications of tectonics for biogeography of SE Asia.
COURSE #3
Course : ADVANCES IN FLUVIAL RESERVOIR CHARACTERIZATION
Cyclostratigraphic
Analysis and Interpretation of Outcrops as Fluvial Reservoir Analogues versus
Subsurface Examples
Date : October 17-18, 2003
Venue : Jakarta Hilton International
Limit : 30 Persons; 8 persons registered, 22 seats left!
Cost : US$ 500 (for IPA Professional Division Member) / US$ 550 (for non-member)
Instructor : Dr. S. Djin Nio - Enres International
Fluvial reservoirs contain significant volumes of oil and gas and are playing an
important role in E & P of SE Asia.
The need for a better understanding and prediction of the reservoir quality of these
reservoirs in exploration, and to predict internal heterogeneities and sand body
interconnectedness in field development and production is becoming more urgent.
The course tries to contribute to these challenges by presenting new methods and
concepts in determining and correlating bounding surfaces, the prediction of fluvial
and fluvial-related depositional facies and the interconnectedness of fluvial sand
bodies in the subsurface using wire line logs. Outcrops are extensively used as
fluvial reservoir analogues and are shown and discussed in out
Crop wall models.
About the instructor:
Djin Nio is a petroleum consultant, specialized in applying cyclostratigraphy and
sedimentology in hydrocarbon E&P. He graduated from the University of Zuerich,
Switzerland and received his Ph.D in 1968.
