Naturally fractured reservoir in basement rocks has proven to produce a significant amount of hydrocarbon. However, the exploration and development scheme in basement reservoir has been considered to be very limited or exclusive (e.g. only in several places such as in Cuu Long Basin, Vietnam, Suban, South Sumatra basin, Indonesia and Malay Basin, Malaysia). 

It is a known fact that there are plenty of potential targets around Asia Pacific, however, basement reservoirs are considered as high-risk exploration targets and the exploration task is challenging. As a consequence, the proposal to develop the basement rock reservoir is less attractive and has a lower priority compared to other traditional prospects. This workshop is designed to revive the spirit of exploring the basement fractures potential in the Asia-Pacific region. 

The workshop with it's theme:"Naturally Fractured Reservoir in Basement Rocks with Geological-Geomechanical-Geophysical Insights" will take place from 27-28 April 2022 fully virtual.
