CCOP Norway EPPM Program Dissemination Seminar of the Project 1 (P1) Crossborder Case Study of North Sumatra Mergui Basin Summary Jakarta Kuala Lumpur Bangkok, 20 22 March 2013 The EPPM P1 Dissemination seminar was conducted as a back-to-back activity in Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur and Bangkok from 20 to 22 March 2013. The aim is to report the outcomes and recommendations of the study teams to the stakeholders. The EPPM Program is funded by the Royal Norwegian Government and with the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate as CCOP s technical partner. The case study area is a petroleum basin that is shared by three (3) Member Countries of CCOP Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand. Figure 1: Map of the basin and structural elements The case study was supported by technical activities series of workshops & training courses, coordination meetings, and geological fieldworks conducted over a period of ~4 years. The case study countries provided the data and local expertise over their area of the basin. The data and knowledge from the 3 countries were integrated and combined with expertise from Norway and other cooperating countries that resulted in a better understanding of the big geologic picture of the basin enhancing geological interpretations and predictions that can be translated into a higher drilling success in the future. The other member countries of CCOP also participated in the technical activities. The methodologies and workflow that were applied were according to international standards, which are repeatable and free for countries to implement for their own basin study. Special technical training sessions were also conducted to support the specific needs of the case study teams and also the member countries participating in EPPM P1. The EPPM-dedicated website www.ccop.or.th/eppm is the repository of all recordings and information of all the activities of the Program and also offers free download to the general public. 1
Case Study Report At the start of the case study, agreements were made related to the workflow, data use and interpretations, and the specific tasks for each country. For the specific tasks, the 3 countries agreed on the following assignments: 1. Thailand: To conduct the Structural Interpretation and Reconstruction of the North Sumatra Mergui Basin; 2. Indonesia: To carry out Sub-surface Mapping, 2D Basin Modeling and Estimation of Hydrocarbon Resources; and 3. Malaysia: To perform Seismic Facies Analysis and Common Risk Segment Mapping. The main contents of the Dissemination Seminar s program were the presentations of the 3 cases study teams highlighting the works done, the dynamics in the exchange of data and sharing of knowledge to support their specific tasks and the recommendations. Thailand presented the structural cross sections of main composite line A, B and C, outlining some sub-basins and the variety of structural and stratigraphic traps present in the basin such as; Drape over basement High Roll-over Crest of block Drag fold Figure 2: Composite Line A, B and C The stratigraphic plays of basin floor fan and mid-fan turbidite sandstone within the Kantang formations could be prime targets for future exploration. These plays are adjacent to the 2
kitchen area and probably will have appropriate migration charges. They also reported that the presences of source rock and migration pathways are the critical risks for hydrocarbon accumulation in the basin. Thailand also reported that they have benefited in the sharing of experiences and information during the conduct of the technical activities. They believed that these has resulted in the strengthening of connections and cooperation among the geo-scientists and therefore must be continued, even outside of CCOP activities. Indonesia reported that 1. Five (5) regional horizons have been mapped based on 18 regional seismic lines. Three (3) regional composite lines were also constructed to conduct 2D modeling. 2. The estimated hydrocarbon generated from the mature source rock in the kitchen is located in the southern part of the study area is about 6000 MMBOE with possible 10% hydrocarbon that could be trapped (600 MMBOE). Figure 3: Depth Structure Maps of the southern part of the basin The report of Malaysia captures the general outcomes of the case study and are summarized as follows: 1. The CCOP-P1 project provides the big picture of the basin through Cross-border data sharing and collaboration; 2. The Cross-border area is still an exploration frontier and risky; 3. Most part of the area has been evaluated as medium risk; 3
4. The high risk area is in the basin centre (deep/less data); 5. The main play type: a. Shallow Marine (Carbonate & Clastics) Proven plays b. Slope Fan Turbidite Unproven/less explored potential target for the future; and 6. CCOP-P1 Project demonstrated the significant of collaborations among neighboring countries in lowering and managing exploration risks. Figure 4: Composite Common Risk Segment (CCRS) Map Recommendations for the Way Forward 1. Each member country to continue the studies and pursue the exploration targets in their territories guided by the results of the cross-border collaboration under EPPM P1 Project. 2. The EPPM P1 Project is exemplary in cross-border collaborations and should be replicated and extended into other parts of the North Sumatra Basin, i.e Myanmar. 3. Further collaborations beyond CCOP: a. Malaysia- Indonesia (South Melaka Straits); b. Malaysia-Thailand border area; c. Malaysia-Thailand-Indonesia - Deep Basin Centre; and d. Thailand-Myanmar border area. Overall, the P1 Project provided opportunities for building/strengthening the relationship and networking of the member countries. It was also reported by the national coordinators that 4
knowledge learned from participation in the technical activities are disseminated though reporting and conduct of echo seminars. Some countries have also implemented some of the concepts learned in their basin assessment and exploration promotions. The final presentation was delivered by Mr. Per Blystad of the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate (NPD) and highlights the more than 35 years of cooperation between Norway and CCOP as well as NPD s observations as technical partner in the P1 case study. 1. A common database has been established first time in CCOP Projects. The combined data, the interpretations and results outweighs the sum of each of the contributions. 2. The 2D basin analysis shows mature (hydrocarbon kitchens) confirmed in North Sumatra. 3. Several petroleum play models have been identified. Elaborated risking of the plays will help in identifying the best area of the basin for exploration. 4. The results of the study forms the basis for future studies in each of the countries and will help in fostering future cooperation.

The discussions between CCOP Technical Secretariat Myanmar Oil and Gas Enterprise (MOGE), the regulatory agency and national oil company of Myanmar, indicated that Myanmar is very interested to participate of the case study. CCOP TS will have to exert more efforts of finding ways on how the planned case study extension can be funded. 11
