About FESAus

FESAus, the Formation Evaluation Society of Australia, is the Australian chapter of the Society of Petrophysicists and Well Log Analysts (SPWLA).

Its aims are to provide a technical monthly forum for geoscientists focused on all aspects of formation evaluation, from new tools available to new techniques and approaches to analysing reservoirs, and to encourage formation evaluation professionals to network. In line with the founding principles of the SPWLA, FESAus is a non-profit organization dedicated to the advancement of the science of Petrophysics and Formation Evaluation, including well logging, coring, and other formation evaluation techniques and to the application of these techniques to the exploitation of gas, oil and other minerals, particularly in Australia.

Upcoming Events:

FESAus’ May 2025 technical meeting in Perth: “The role of Petrophysics in CCS”.

John Bretherton (Woodside Energy Ltd.

Petrophysical interpretation and modelling plays a key role in assessing storage capacity, injectivity, sealing capacity and ongoing conformance monitoring for a CCS project.

This talk will provide an overview of key areas where reservoir and fluid property characterisation and uncertainty could be implemented in a given CCS project. The key Petrophysical aspects of site assessment, basis for well design data acquisition, abandonment, well integrity and ongoing monitoring will be covered. As part of an integrated subsurface team how best can the Petrophysicist support – storage capacity assessment, injectivity / reservoir efficiency estimation, containment sealing properties / capacity, ongoing surveillance and abandonment requirements?

Tues 13th May | 12:00-13:30 | The Stateroom, Faraday’s Perth, 216 St Georges Tce, Perth WA 6000
