GSH Technical Luncheon #1
Speaker: David H. Johnston, Geophysical Advisor, ExxonMobil Exploration Company
Day: Tue 16-Sep-08 11:30 AM
Location: Omni Palace 12121 Westheimer Rd. Houston, Texas 77077
Summary: 4D Seismic in the Deepwater – Challenges and Rewards
Time-lapse or 4D seismic data has proven value in reservoir management, increasing reserves and recovery by locating bypassed and undrained hydrocarbons and optimizing infill well locations and flood patterns. 4D seismic can also decrease operating costs by reducing uncertainty in the reservoir geologic model and flow simulation, optimizing completions, and minimizing the number of dry holes. 4D is simply the use of multiple seismic surveys shot over a producing field. Changes in the seismic response typically occur because of production-induced changes in saturation and pressure. Successful 4D projects have been carried out in a wide range of geographical areas, geological settings, and depletion scenarios

GSH Technical Luncheon #2
Speaker: David H. Johnston, Geophysical Advisor, ExxonMobil Exploration Company
Day: Wed 17-Sep-08 11:30 AM
Location: Petroleum Club of Houston 800 Bell St. Downtown Houston, TX 77002

Joint GSH/HGS/SIPES

"Dilemmas of Truth"

Judge Lynn Hughes

Mixing principles and examples with economics and anthropology, this lecture offers a perspective on integrity that is thoughtful and practical. Often in ethics, as in science, identifying the problem is harder than knowing the solution, making recognition a theme of the talk.

Attendees will earn a 1-hour credit for continuing education in ethics, which is an annual requirement for all geoscientists licensed in Texas.
