DATE Friday 3rd August <strong>2012</strong><br />
TITLE EXTRA HEAVY OIL and OIL SANDS: CHALLENGES and OPPORTUNITIES<br />
LOCATION HOTEL GEORGE WILLIAMS 325 George St Brisbane<br />
ORGANISERS STATOIL CANADA LTD<br />
PRESENTERS Rudy Strobl (Statoil Canada, Heavy Oil Technology Centre)<br />
Milovan Fustic ( Nexen Inc- Canadian Oil and Gas Division)<br />
Daryl Wightman (Rock Doc Consulting Ltd)<br />
SUMMARY This seminar integrates geology, geophysics, organic geochemistry and reservoir<br />
characterization to evaluate extra heavy oil and oil sands assets. Understanding the<br />
impact of reservoir heterogeneity is essential in assessing optimal recovery strategies.<br />
Oil sands and heavy oil analogues from Western Canada, represent open estuarine,<br />
tidally influenced point bar, stacked channel (f1) and marine shoreface successions.<br />

Primary recovery includes cold heavy oil production with sand (CHOPS). Thermal<br />
methods used include cyclic steam stimulation (CSS) and steam assisted gravity<br />
drainage (SAGD). Emerging technologies include solvent assist, electromagnetic<br />
heating and in-situ combustion.<br />
This course is recommended for petroleum professionals, geologists, geophysicists<br />
and engineers who are considering working in heavy oil or oil sands.<br />

WORKSHOP 4<br />
DATE Saturday 4th August <strong>2012</strong><br />
TITLE GEOCHEMISTRY IN MINERAL EXPLORATION<br />
LOCATION HOTEL GEORGE WILLIAMS 325 George St Brisbane<br />
ORGANISERS Members of Association of Applied Geochemists<br />
PRESENTERS Association of Applied Geochemists, co-ordinated by David Cohen<br />
SUMMARY Geochemistry is a critical component in the discovery and operations of many<br />
mineral deposits, from grass roots exploration to mine site remediation. This short<br />
course will cover some of the critical areas in applied geochemistry in mineral<br />
exploration; from the factors that control the behaviour of elements in different<br />
surface environments to the design of exploration programs and interpretation of<br />
data.<br />
