Milestone Carbon Director of Geoscience Adam Haecker, P.G. will present "CCUS Petrophysics: How is it different? How is it the same?" at the Society of Petrophysicists and Well Log Analysts (SPWLA) Midland Chapter monthly meeting on Tuesday, August 27, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Carbon Capture Utilization and Sequestration (CCUS) Petrophysics has significant overlap with existing workflows used in oil and gas exploration, but CCUS also has key differences. Hear Adam discuss the parameters needed by the modern CCUS Petrophysicist to effectively evaluate if a reservoir is viable for sequestration.

Moosetooth Geological Consulting has been recognized as one of the Top Energy Consulting Providers by Energy Business Review. Moosetooth provide seismic interpretation services if the data is available or desired by the client. Seismic volumes enhance the clarity of the subsurface in several ways and are often an important element to the success of a project. Moosetooth generates synthetic seismograms to accurately tie seismic reflections to their proper geologic interval. The data is then interpreted with horizons and faults, which helps pinpoint potential hydrocarbon traps and guides the selection of future drilling locations. “Evaluating organic shale is like cooking a steak—if it’s ‘cooked’ to the right level, say medium-rare or medium, it hits the sweet spot for generating hydrocarbons in an unconventional petroleum system. If the source rock is ‘undercooked,’ it’s not yet ready to produce, which is valuable information for our clients to have early on. This way, they know exactly when and how to capitalize on their resources,” says Maurits Thayer, President. The article will also be featured in the forthcoming special print edition of Energy Consulting 2024.

10 Equations That Drive the #Petroleum Industry (The Way Ahead Article) Here, I will list a summary of the compilation of equations that are ubiquitous in the oil and gas industry: 1. Bragg’s Law (Geophysical interpretation in exploration). 2. Hubbert Equation/Curve (Depletion of natural resources that are limited). * 3. Material Balance (Oil and gas production monitoring and assessment). 4. Darcy’s Law (Ruling flow in porous media). 5. Stevin’s Law in Field Units (Drilling and completion, e.g., mud weight). 6. Annular Capacity (Drilling and completion, e.g., well control). 7. Inflow Performance Relationship (IPR): Vogel’s Equation (Well performance). 8. Bernoulli’s and Poiseulle’s Equations (Fluid behaviour: fluid dynamics). 9. Real Gas Equation of State (Gas behaviour). 10. Oil and Gas Property Evaluation (Oil and gas Economics). *Personal commentary: This particular approach has been widely confronted, specially in the last 2 decades due to the "non-apparent" decline in oil and gas resources. Of course this list is just a base of the petroleum industry from which many derivations and applications have been developed.

Available next week on March 20,2024: Our assessment and re-evaluation of the McKittrick Oil Field Main Area. One of California's oldest oil fields - this assessment includes a review of over 2,000 wells, production data going back to 1915, and a new geological model - updating previous published work on the field. Includes maps of the major producing intervals, including the Olig Sand, Reef Ridge Sand, Stevens Sand, and the shallow Tulare zone, along with cross sections showing the structural geology of the field. all available curves, updated February 23, 2024. #drilling #naturalgas #oilproduction #energyindustry #petroleum #petroleumindustry #oilfield #petroleumengineering #reservoirengineering #oilandgascompanies #carbonstorage #carboncapture #hydrogen #hydrogeneconomy #oil #oilandgas #oilandgasindustry #California #SanJoaquin #kerncounty #oilandgasexploration Kern County Pacific Section AAPG New Orleans Geological Society Houston Geological Society DALLAS GEOLOGICAL SOCIETY API - American Petroleum Institute Rocky Mountain Association of Geologists Oklahoma City Geological Society Fort Worth Geological Society (FWGS) EAGE (European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers) San Joaquin Geological Society SJGS #energystrong Canadian Global Energy Forum Society of Petroleum Engineers International Society of Applied Geoscientists and Engineers, Inc.

Hydrogen storage possibilities in the San Joaquin Basin oil fields, California, using Geoff Gallant's subsurface mapping, available at our website cart: https://lnkd.in/gvat4Hcp S. Mao et al., at the Los Alamos National Laboratory just published: Strategies for hydrogen storage in a depleted sandstone reservoir from the San Joaquin Basin, California (USA) based on high-fidelity numerical simulations, free pdf here: https://lnkd.in/gnTpQ4XX Article addresses two primary objectives: "(a) to assess the feasibility of two distinct UHS (Underground Hydrogen Storage) strategies—one that involves storing H2 across all sand layers and another that stores an equal amount of H2 in the single thickest sand layer, and (b) to evaluate the effect of interbedded shale permeability on UHS performance...The impact of interbedded shale permeability on UHS performance is negligible across the range of uncertainty for shale permeability. This research not only lays the groundwork for potential UHS implementation in the abundant sandstones of the San Joaquin Basin of California, but also offers valuable insights for other depleted hydrocarbon reservoirs under consideration for UHS that share similar properties." #hydrogen #hydrogenstorage #subsurfacemapping #drilling #naturalgas #oilproduction #energyindustry #petroleum #petroleumindustry #oilfield #petroleumengineering #reservoirengineering #oilandgascompanies #carbonstorage #carboncapture #hydrogeneconomy #oil #oilandgas #oilandgasindustry #California #SanJoaquin #kerncounty #oilandgasexploration #Kern Pacific Section AAPG New Orleans Geological Society Houston Geological Society DALLAS GEOLOGICAL SOCIETY API - American Petroleum Institute Rocky Mountain Association of Geologists Oklahoma City Geological Society Fort Worth Geological Society (FWGS) EAGE (European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers) San Joaquin Geological Society SJGS #energystrong California Resources Corporation Aera Energy LLC Chevron ExxonMobil Berry Oil Crimson Resource Management Corp American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG) ConocoPhillips Richard Chapman Mike Umbro Kurt Neher Kristy Whitaker, PhD Californians for Energy & Science

But what exactly are deposition environments? 🌊 𝘿𝙚𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙀𝙣𝙫𝙞𝙧𝙤𝙣𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨: Deposition environments are the settings where sediment accumulates over time, creating various types of sedimentary rock formations. These environments can include: 🔸Deltaic: Where rivers meet the sea, depositing sediments in a fan-shaped pattern. 🔸Fluvial: River systems that transport and deposit sediments along their course. 🔸Marine: Oceanic settings where sediments settle out of the water. 𝙒𝙝𝙮 𝘼𝙧𝙚 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙮 𝙄𝙢𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙩?🤔 1-Reservoir Characterization: Each deposition environment affects the characteristics of sedimentary rocks, such as porosity and permeability. For instance, deltaic environments often create high-quality reservoir rocks that are ideal for hydrocarbon storage. 2-Exploration Strategies: By understanding the depositional history, geologists can predict the presence and distribution of oil and gas reserves, allowing for more targeted and efficient exploration efforts. 3-Production Optimization: Knowledge of deposition environments helps in designing effective drilling and extraction techniques, enhancing overall production efficiency. 4-Risk Assessment: Accurate interpretation of deposition environments aids in assessing potential risks and uncertainties, leading to more informed decision-making and reduced operational challenges. 𝙄𝙣 𝙎𝙪𝙢𝙢𝙖𝙧𝙮: Deposition environments are foundational to identifying and managing hydrocarbon reservoirs. They bridge geological history with modern exploration and production, driving innovation and success in the oil and gas industry.🌟 #Oil_and_Gas #Geology #Deposition_Environments #Exploration #Reservoir_Engineering #Petroleum_Geology #EPRI_Training
