ABSTRACT


History of oil and gas exploration and development has been through several 
important stages.  It is all started with surface seeps, then people start 
looking for anticline from the surface geology.  Advancement in early 
geophysical methodology made a big jump in reserve discovery. Gravity and 
seismic methods are two important tools used as indirect 
measurement.  Since then, only few new methodologies used for hydrocarbon 
exploration and development.  Most of the scientific effort is done on 
enhancing seismic reflection methods.  Several milestone in seismic 
reflection methods that resulting in big discoveries has been experienced, 
namely: stacking, migration, AVO, seismic stratigraphy, 3 D, seismic 
attributes, inversion, image processing, 4D, 3C, anisotropy, etc.  In 
general, the advancements can be categorized as aid to understand: 
structure, stratigraphy, and reservoir characters.

Right now, we are about to see another important milestone in hydrocarbon 
exploration and exploitation, it is the era of fluid characterization.
Knowing the reservoir rocks is a must in field development, and knowing the 
fluid composition is going to be a need for enhanced recovery in a 
field.  Especially in fields that contaminated with unneeded and 
un-commercial fluids such as CO2 or H2S.
Prediction of  wide range of gas composition in a reservoir is not 
acceptable anymore,  so there is no more reason that somebody can not tell 
(using the seismic data) whether the reservoir contains 10 % of gas or 90 % 
of gas.
Furthermore, knowledge of fluid composition can lead into a better 
prediction of pressure, hydrocarbon saturation and eventually better 
production history match and production prediction in reservoir simulation.

Real measurement of the fluid composition can be acquired through 
production test in wells.  This measurement most of the time is accurate 
enough to understand the reservoir and its fluids at that 
location.  Therefore, more well test needed in one field.
However, most of the time the wells are sparsely distributed, therefore, 
seismic data is needed to show lateral variation of reservoir and its fluid 
contents.

There have been several methods used to predict the fluid composition, 
mostly deriving empirical formula from crossplot. However, crossplot can be 
misleading if the average value is much bigger than its range.  In this 
case the regression coefficient (r2) can be close to one even though the 
variation is still big.

In this talk, the speaker will show how to predict the fluid composition by 
breaking down the reservoir properties into fluid properties using existing 
formula combined with simple statistics and arithmetic, without deriving 
empirical formula from crossplot.  The forward modeling is presented first 
to show that variation in fluid composition shows variation in measurement 
of seismic data.  Then, inversion  modeling approached  is entertained to 
the audience.

         In the talks, the derivation of formula will be limited to 
minimum, but the concept  of fluid composition extraction is still in 
tact.  CO2 case is taken as an example for explaining the method.



BIOGRAPHY


Franciscus Sinartio started his career as a geophysicist at ARCO Indonesia 
in 1987, he then continued his quest in geophysical world at VICO Indonesia 
(1991-1998), Canadian Petroleum (1998), Repsol-YPF-Maxus (1998-2002), Jason 
Geosystems (2002-now).  Right now, he is a Senior Project Geoscientist for 
Jason Geosystems Indonesia.

         His work experience and interest includes: seismic acquisition, 
seismic processing, seismic interpretation, seismic modeling and special 
project of combination of the above fields as well as combinations of 
multidiscipline field such as depositional setting, structural geology, 
petrophysics, and reservoir engineering.

         During his 15  years career in the oil industries, he is an active 
members of SEG (Society of Exploration Geophysicist), HAGI (Himpunan Ahli 
Geofisika Indonesia) and IPA (Indonesia Petroleum Association).  He is also 
a member of IAGI (Ikatan Ahli Geology Indonesia), FOSI (Forum of 
Sedimentologists Indonesia) and FOGRI (Forum Geofisika Reservoir 
Indonesia).  He is now, the chairman of Jakarta chapter of HAGI.

         Franciscus got his BS degree from Colorado School of Mines in 1986 
in Geophysics, and his MS degree from Institut Teknologi Bandung in 1991 in 
Energy and Mineral Resources Management.
