"Petroleum Geochemistry : Essential Concepts and Methods for Hydrocarbon Exploration and Production" Date : November 28 - 29, 2004 Overview : Today, people use the concept of petroleum system in evaluating petroleum potential and exploration risks involved in an area of investigation. We have seen that this concept successfully employed. Using this approach, new petroleum accumulations have been discovered and significant reduction of exploration risks has taken place. Petroleum system concept was developed through petroleum geochemistry. The ability to identify a petroleum system uniquely depends on geochemical techniques needed to map hydrocarbon shows, and to carry out petroleum-petroleum and petroleum-source rock correlations (Magoon and Dow, 1994). However, generally, one/ones with strong interest and training in petroleum geochemistry are seldom. It is generally known that traps, reservoirs, seals, source rocks and hydrocarbon migration are all required to make petroleum accumulations. Most geologists have known a lot about traps and reservoirs, little about seals, and virtually nothing about source rocks and migration. This contrasts with the knowledge that if we know where the oils and gas came from and how and to where they migrate, we can better predict where they will be found. Petroleum geochemistry can be used to high-grade areas in which to concentrate exploration activity, thereby reducing risk. Therefore, petroleum geochemistry should not be under-employed let alone ignored. This two-day course will highlight almost all aspects of petroleum geochemistry which are important for exploration and production. Basic to advanced methods of petroleum geochemistry will be introduced. Study cases from Indonesia will be presented to show the application of petroleum geochemistry for understanding of oil and gas habitats. Having followed this short course, the participants will understand the important aspects of petroleum geochemistry and its critical roles in both exploration and production. Practical methods given during the course can be applied to any area of investigation. During two days, the following subjects are covered : INTRODUCTION What for and Why Petroleum Geochemistry | Critical Role of Petroleum Geochemistry CHEMISTRY OF PETROLEUM Molecular Structure | Classification/Types of Oil and Gas SOURCE ROCK GEOCHEMISTRY Source Potential and Facies | Rock-Eval Pyrolysis Maturation | Volumetric Calculation of Generated Hydrocarbons OIL GEOCHEMISTRY Bulk Properties | Molecular Properties | Oil Families Oil Maturation GAS GEOCHEMISTRY Compositional Analysis | Isotope Analysis Genetic Gas Types | Non-Hydrocarbon Gases (CO2, H2S, N2, He) Gas Distribution in Basins CORRELATION Correlation of Oil and Gas Families | Oil/Gas to Source Rock Correlation | Biomarker Ratios for Correlation | Stable Isotope Ratios for Correlation | Geochemical Inversion MIGRATION OF HYDROCARBONS Primary Migration (Expulsion) | Secondary Migration Migration Pathways | Direction and Distances of Secondary Migration GEOCHEMISTRY IN PETROLEUM SYSTEM Elements of Petroleum System | Processes of Petroleum System | Oil and Gas Habitats ALTERATION IN RESERVOIRS Biodegradation and Water Washing | Thermal Alteration | Phase Changes Venue : Horizon Hotel, Bandung Instructor : Awang H.
