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. Therefore we'd like to invite you to register soon before the closing date. Regards, The Committee GDA Daya Ayfedha - Jakarta Telp/Fax: 829.2539 Mobile : 0816.1421213 E-mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ===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 ______________________ Fieldtrip & Workshop FLUVIAL-DELTAIC SEDIMENTOLOGY FOR EXPLORATIONIST Date: March, 28 - 30, 2003 (full Friday, full Saturday, 1/2 Sunday, start at 8 : 00 am Friday, finish at 1 : 00 pm Sunday) Venue: Hotel Taman Sari - Sukabumi (where you can relax in cool mountain resort during weekend nights after course hours) Instructor: Andang Bachtiar (Independent) (19 years experience in petroleum exploration in Kutai Basin) Cost: US$ 550 include: course material, field gadget, lunches. (not include: accomodation, transport to Sukabumi and dinner) Who Should Attend: exploration geologists, development/production geologist, geophysicist, reservoir engineers, log analyst, petrophysicist, coal geologist. _________________________ 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). ________________ Over the course the following topics will be covered in detail : Introduction Background, Aim of the course, Structure of the course, Expected results Hydrodynamics Velocity, Laminar, Turbulence, Newtonian, Non-Newtonian, Hjulstorm Diagram, Bed forms, Flow regimes, Lateral accretion, Vertical accretion (progradation), Aggradation.
