Dear candidates of  Course 

(fieldtrip & Workshop) participant,

 

Hereby is a reminder that the registration for Fieldtrip and Workshop 

of  "Fluvial-Dealtaic Sedimentology for Explorationist" will be closed on 26th of 
March 2003.

As our previous announcement, the program will be hold on March 28 - 30, 2003   

with  Mr. Andang Bachtiar as the instructor.

===flyer information==========================================


Dear Explorationists,

 

 

It's time to have a break and refresh your knowledge on sedimentology. Go to mountain 
resort at Hotel Taman Sari Sukabumi and join us on Fieldtrip and workshop  "Fluvial - 
Deltaic Sedimentology for Explorationist"  on March 28 -30, 2003 (Friday thru Sunday). 
 For that purpose, I attach some flyers for you to browse and getting listed.

 

If you are a manager and feel that you don't have much time to spend your weekend to 
join the course, I will urge you to pass this over to your explorationists, so that 
they won't miss this beautiful opportunity. 

 

This won't be an ordinary course, because:

1.   You will get lots of new ideas regarding your current exploration works, 
especially if they are related to deltaic-fluvial plays. My 19 year working in Kutai 
Basin, of which the 2 years also spent in South Sumatra, Central Sumatra, and East 
Java basins, has documented many examples of the said sedimentology and application on 
exploration, which I will intensively share with you. 

2.   It will be a combination between classroom presentation and field exercises in 
the superb outcrops of deltaic-fluvial Gn. Walat sandstone.

3.   While your exploration battery is seriously charged during the course, you (and 
your family) may also relax during the weekend nights at this mountain resort. So, you 
won't miss much of your weekend time with your family.

4.   It will only cost 1 (one) man working day for the company (on top of the tuition 
fee & transport & accommodation), because the course will be started at 8 AM on Friday 
morning.

5.   The previous  4 courses which were conducted at the same place in 2001-2002 
received enthusiastic response from the  participants.

 

So, better be listed as soon as possible.

 





 

Best Regards,

 

Andang Bachtiar

COURSE OVERVIEW 
 
 
    Understanding sedimentology is one of the basic requirement  to a success in oil & 
gas and coal exploration.  Although it is hardly noticed, explorationists use lots of 
sedimentological principles and concepts in their daily exploration activity, i.e.: 
describing outcrop/core, interpreting logs and seismic, drawing reservoir maps and 
coal distributions, and ultimately calculating reserves of hydrocarbons and coals. 
This course is aimed to refresh the knowledge of basic sedimentology with special 
reference to deltaic-fluvial setting; the environment of which are associated with 
most of the Indonesian hydrocarbons and coals. 
 
     Back to basic - Look at the rock: is the basic philosophy of the course. No 
matter how sophisticated the tools that help us (loggings, seismic, interpretation 
software, etc), the success of exploration is still depend on the geologist (and 
geology concepts) behind the tools.  Understanding sedimentology gained from this 
course will hopefully recharge the explorationist battery to keep on generating 
prospects (or at least new ideas) in dealing with the materials (cuttings, core, logs, 
seismic) and the tools (software's, etc). 
 
     For new recruits, this course will certainly equip them with necessary focus on 
selected sedimentology knowledge to be used in the future works; while for experience 
explorationists, this will refresh lots of their understanding about sedimentology, 
which probably already built-in intuitively (sometimes becomes obsolute) in their 
mind. 
 
     This is the fifth  time that a course of this kind (classroom, outcrop and 
mountain resort combination) is conducted. The previous three   courses on August, 
October 2001 and  March, September 2002 had received many interests and good comments 
(see: comments at the end of this letter *). 
 
     Participants can choose any hotel / accommodation in the area, but it is 
suggested to choose the one where the course is conducted, i.e.: Hotel Taman Sari, 
Sukabumi. While seriously charge the exploration battery during the course, the 
participant (and family  ? ) may also refresh during the week-end nights at this 
mountain resort. Of course you can also choose to go directly to the course everyday 
from Jakarta (2-3 hrs drive) or Bogor (1-2 hrs drive). The course will be a 
combination between classroom lecturing and exercises, and field-outcrop--description. 
 

     For companies, the course will not interfere much the daily duties of the 
employee, because it will be conducted during the weekend (although the company has to 
let them leaving the work for full day during Friday).

* Several comments from participants : 
..."very good course and field trip"..... 
..."the topic are very good and meet with 
our  expectation".. 
...." need more time to classroom and field course".... 
.." It's great course!, it's ready good to be back 
on the field,  make me  fresh again, because I see 
logs too much"...
..."I am recommended to continue the course topic 
to the other geologist". 
..."need continue this course, 
karena bagi Geoscience yang tidak  sempat ke Delta Mahakam 
bisa ekskursi di Gunung Walat. I  will promote in my company". 
..."ada kesempatan banyak untuk lebih mendalami endapan-endapan delta 
ditinjau dari sudut pandang field orientation"..
