The Surface Logging Services (SLS) cabin fleet is maintained and updated so as to provide a safe and reliable environment for the provision of wellsite services. Data from all INTEQ services can be integrated and transmitted through the RigLink® system to make your well data available to you on your desktop via the internet in a secure and easy to use fashion.


The Advantage system is also capable of transmitting and receiving the WITS protocol, to level 2B standards. INTEQ has also been a leading member of the new WITSML industry standard development.


Advanced Gas Analysis

INTEQ uses the Agilent 6890GC for high accuracy and sensitivity in gas monitoring and evaluation. Modified to INTEQ specifications, it has independent Total Gas and Chromatographic detectors, with resolution down to 1ppm, and fast cycle times, (52 seconds) with perfect C1/C2 peak separation. This sets the industry standard in accuracy and reliability

Software Integration

The 6890 is networked for remote control with output and gas ratio calculation performed in realtime for output. This can give 'quick-look' capability for fluid typing and fluid contact information

Safety Monitoring

The Advantage system monitors drilling fluid parameters linked to an alarm system to give early warning of potential problems. The Flowback Monitor characterizes the mud flow back to the pits when circulation stops and 'learns' what is normal behaviour. Alarms are set to catch irregular flowback as quickly as possible to allow for reaction to potentially dangerous situations such as an kick.

INTEQ's SLS system contains an H2S detector as standard monitoring gas at all times in the circulating system. Optional CO2 detection is also available.

Harga Minyak Indonesia US$ 50,62/Barell


Harga rata-rata minyak mentah Indonesia Crude Price (ICP) hingga April mencapai angka US$ 50,62 per barel.

Angka ini mengalami kenaikan US$3,67 per barel dari ICP bulan sebelumnya yaitu US$ 46,59 per barel.

Berdasarkan data yang dikutip VIVAnews, Sabtu 2 mei 2009 dari situs Direktorat jenderal Minyak dan Gas Bumi (Dirjen Migas) DESDM menjelaskan, perhitungan ini mengacu pada formula ICP. Sementara untuk harga Minas/SLC untuk April sebesar US$ 53,45 per barel, naik US$ 4,94 per barel dari bulan Maret yang mencapai US$ 48,51 per barel.

Peningkatan harga minyak mentah Indonesia ini sejalan dengan harga minyak mentah utama di pasar internasional yang disebabkan beberapa faktor, antara lain optimisme pasar akan mulai bangkitnya pertumbuhan perekonomian dunia, sehubungan dengan kesepakatan Negara-negara anggota G20 dalam pertemuan tanggal 2 April 2009 di London, untuk mengalokasikan dana bantuan sebesar US$ 1,1 triliun kepada IMF dan institusi keuangan dunia lainnya dalam masa resesi saat ini.

Selain itu, menguatnya bursa saham dunia terutama Wall St-AS, sehubungan dengan laporan peningkatan pendapatan beberapa perusahaan besar seperti Wells Fargo Bank, Citigroup, General Electric dan Google pada kuartal I tahun 2009, sehingga memberikan harapan terjadinya perbaikan pada sektor finansial serta menurunnya produksi minyak mentah OPEC sebesar 0,145 juta barel per hari menjadi 27,90 juta barel per hari sebagai dampak semakin meningkatnya kepatuhan (compliance) anggota OPEC dalam mengimplementasikan kesepakatan pemotongan produksinya. Saat ini tingkat compliance mencapai 83 persen.

Melemahnya nilai tukar dolar AS terhadap euro yang dipicu oleh peningkatan kegiatan industri dan perbankan di Eropa sehingga meningkatkan daya tarik investor terhadap komoditas seperti minyak mentah dan kekhawatiran pasar mengenai kemungkinan terganggunya suplai minyak mentah dari Nigeria terutama akibat serangan kelompok militan terhadap fasilitas pipa minyak di wilayah Niger Delta, Nigeria, pada pertengahan April 2009 yang telah menyebabkan kebakaran dan ditutupnya jalur pipa utama serta stasiun-stasiun pemompa yang berdekatan sehingga menghasilkan penghentian produksi sebesar 0,18 juta barel per hari.

Untuk kawasan Asia Pasifik, selain disebabkan oleh faktor-faktor tersebut, peningkatan harga minyak juga disebabkan oleh penundaan pengoperasian kembali unit PLTN No 7 Stasiun Kashiwazaki Kariwa milik TEPCO hingga paling cepat pada pertengahan Mei 2009 dan meningkatnya tingkat pengolahan minyak mentah kilang-kilang di Cina pada bulan April 2009 yang mengindikasikan mulai berhasilnya program stimulus ekonomi pemerintah Cina yang berdampak terhadap membaiknya permintaan energi, termasuk minyak.

SOLUTIONS


The earth is a closed system, meaning that we have to recycle or store all of the wastes we produce, and we only have one planet's worth of land and water to provide resources for agriculture, energy, and other needs. However, for this to work, it is all dependable on two primary factors: the number of people on each country and the average amount of resources available person and the average amount of pollution produced. Thus, the average standard of living in each country is related to the resources available, because the more people, the more pollution is produced, and more resources are used. Therefore, if a strategy can be developed to lessen the ecological footprint per person it can be a very beneficial way of lessening the demand of Earth’s natural resources, and a more aware mindset of the effects of overpopulation in the present and future of our generation.

The research done in this project allows a closer look at the fact that overpopulation is a problem and that increasing standards of living will only add to the resource demand and limited supply. Thus, some actions that population should take upon is to continue to strive to reduce suffering by combating disease and poverty around the world; continue to improve resource efficiency and pollution control so that standards of living can rise without negative impact; and keep human population to numbers that are sustainable.

Furthermore, making sure people around the world have access to family planning services; empowering women in developing countries economically, socially, and legally in a manner that results in them having an equal say (with their husbands) in reproductive decisions; modifying school curricula to include information on population levels and implications for the future; reforming tax laws in a way that encourages couples to have no more than two children. Along with such strategies, we must also encourage organic farming and other forms of sustainable development. Using wind energy products will make a difference. Slowing urbanization as well by providing other alternatives will be effective.

Directional Drilling Experience - Our drilling systems have been used in thousands of vertical, horizontal and directional wells around the world. We have applied our cumulative experience in developing the new Navi-Drill® Ultra Series™ drilling motors which have set a new standard for performance and reliability and new intermediate-radius motors that improve performance on re-entry wells.

AutoTrak® Rotary Closed Loop System - INTEQ's AutoTrak Rotary Closed Loop System (RCLS) is an automated directional drilling system that contains its own programmed controller and steering sub, and drills continuously in the rotary mode. Steering is controlled by a non-rotating, orienting sleeve with expanding stabilizer pads. Precisely controlled force on the expanding pads produces resultant force vectors that maintain inclination alignment and direction along the programmed well path. Course corrections are made continuously while drilling, with no trips required for tool adjustments.

Real-time surface monitoring permits changes to the wellpath program if desired. This new technology increases the rate-of-penetration, improves hole quality, and enables greater extended reach capability. The system comprises a full MWD, geosteering and automated rotary drilling capability, which enables precise placement of the wellbore within the target formation.

Full Line of Motors -Navi-Drill® Ultra Series motors are available in a wide range of sizes and power section options. They can be configured for directional and straight-hole drilling in hole sizes from 3 7/8" to 23".

INTEQ's new Navi-Drill Ultra Series drilling motors truly represent the new standard in high performance downhole drilling motors.

Re-entry Drilling Technology - Re-entry and horizontal drilling technologies represent 20 years of INTEQ component and methods development informed by our worldwide experience in directional drilling. Baker Hughes is the clear technical leader in re-entry drilling systems and their application.

We determine drilling system requirements by evaluating formation characteristics and the directional profile required to reach your reservoir target. Using INTEQ drilling systems, your re-entry project can be designed to:

* Make maximum use of existing casing
* Avoid problem formations
* Maintain spacing between multiple wellpaths
* Reach pay zones close to the vertical hole
* Reach multiple pay zones
* Stay within limited lease boundaries

Measurement-While-Drilling - INTEQ measurement-while-drilling (MWD) technology is recognized as the industry benchmark for performance and reliability. From basic survey readings through wireline replacement logging services, our systems provide accurate information to help oil companies enhance drilling performance, optimize well placement and gather quantitative information about the reservoir.

Experienced field service engineers operate the systems at the rigsite to provide real-time data. They are backed by our worldwide operations network and our industry-leading research, engineering and manufacturing capabilities.

Directional/Gamma Systems - INTEQ MWD systems enhance drilling performance and provide precise control of the well's trajectory. For example, our collar mounted systems and NaviTrak®/NaviGamma® services deliver real-time directional information, including hole inclination, azimuth and toolface orientation. More advanced tools also measure formation gamma ray levels to detect changes in lithology.

Drilling Dynamics® - INTEQ's Modular Advanced Pressure (MAP™) tool provides advanced downhole pressure measurements and features a subwall-mounted cartridge with an annular and bore transducer.

These measurements help drillers avoid problems, improve ROP and reduce drilling costs.

Geosteering - INTEQ introduced the concept of geosteering to the industry. Using a combination of pre-job modeling, steerable motors and near-bit directional and formation evaluation sensors, our experts can accurately place horizontal wells in tight target zones and keep them there for extended hole sections.

Employing such innovations as our AutoTrak service, geosteering has helped operators maximize production from their horizontal wells.

Minyak Bumi Dikenal Orang

Orang-orang di Sumatera mulai memanfaatkan minyak bumi pada abad XVI. Kala itu minyak bumi selain digunakan untuk bahan obat dan penerangan obor juga digunakan sebagai senjata menghalau musuh. Rakyat Aceh dengan senjata bola-bola api dari minyak bumi berhasil menghalau armada Portugis di Selat Malaka.

Kemudian pada tahun 1883, A.J. Zijiker pimpinan perkebunan tembakau diwilayah Langkat secara tidak sengaja menemukan minyak bumi yang merembes kepermukaan membentuk seperti kubangan. Dengan penemuannya itu maka pada tanggal 15 Juni 1885 melakukan pemboran yang hasilnya cukup potensial untuk dikembangkan. Daerah pengembangan secara komersial oleh A.J. Zijiker disebut Kompiek Pangkalan Brandan Kabupaten Langkat Sumatera Utara yang merupakan tonggak sejarah Perminyakan di Indonesia.

Namun jauh sebelum itu, pada tahun 972 masyarakat Sumatera Selatan sudah mengenalnya. Hal itu dibuktikan dalam catatan sejarah Cina, pada masa itu kerajaan Sriwijaya Palembang selalu mengirimkan guci-guci berisi minyak bumi kepada kaisar Cina di kota Langit Biru. Orang-orang Cina kala itu sangat memerlukan cairan minyak bumi untuk dijadikan bahan obat penyakit kulit dan reumatik. Minyak bumi yang dikirim dari kerajaan Sriwijaya itu diperoleh dengan cara mencidukdari rembesan di permukaan bumi Sumatera Selatan.

Penemuan Minyak Bumi Komersial di Sumatera Selatan

Prabumulih dalam sejarah perminyakan disebut Komplek Palembang Selatan (KPS). Pertama kali minyak bumi ditemukan di daerah ini oleh bangsa Belanda pada tahun 1870 pada rembesan puncak antiklin di Kampung Minyak ketika melakukan pemetaan geologi. Pada tahun 1896 daerah ini dikembangkan dan diproduksikan melalui sumur dangkal sedalam 65 meter di Kampong Minyak dan Babat oleh Muara Enim Petroleum. Pada tahun 1901 Sumatera Palembang Petroleum Company (Sumpal) membuka kegiatan tambang minyak di Suban Jeriji, pada waktu itu merupakan pusat kantor lapangan. Minyak yang diproproduksikan oleh Sumpal berasal sumur kedalaman 105 meter di Air Ngalega dan Suban Jeriji.

Produksi minyak yang dihasilkan oleh Muara Enim Petroleum Company diolah di kilang Plaju. Sedangkan produksi dari Sumpal diolah di kilang Bayung Lincir, jaraknya 100 mil sebelah barat laut dari Palembang. Selain itu Musi Petroleum Company kegiatannya hanya dibidang pengolahan saja di Bagus Kuning yang jaraknya satu setengah mil dari Plaju.

Perkembangan Perusahaan Minyak di Sumatera Selatan

Dengan diketemukannya minyak bumi di Komplek Palembang Selatan (Prabumulih) dan diproduksikan secara komersial maka The Royal Dutch membuka usaha dalam bidang pengangkutan dan pemasaran hasil. Usaha yang sama juga dilakukan oleh The Shell Transport and Trading Co yang didirikan oleh Balai Perniagaan Inggris. Berdasarkan perjanjian kontrak hasil minyak dari Muara Enim Co dan Musi Ilir Co diserahkan kepada Shell, terutama hasil minyak tanah untuk penerangan lampu.

Perkembangan selanjutnya, Sumatera Palembang Petroleum Co dipersatukan dengan The Royal Dutch yang selanjutnya pada tanggal 17 Mei 1902 bersama Shell membentuk Asiatic Petroleum Co. Pembentukan itu merupakan organisasi dalam hal pengangkutan dan perdagangan minyak untuk kepentingan kongsi tersebut. Pada tahun 1904 Muara Enim Petroleum Co bergabung dengan The Royal Dutch dan tahun 1906 menyusul Musi Ilir Co. Penggabungan kedalam tubuh The Royal Dutch maka menjadikan sebagai pengusaha tunggal perminyakan di Sumatera Selatan.

Selanjutnya, setelah Shell dan The Royal Dutch dipersatukan pada tanggal 26 Februari 1907 dan pembentukan serentak dari De Bataafshe Petroleum Maatschappij, The Angle Saxon Petroleum Company dan The Shell Petroleum Company (disebut The Asiatic) dibawah pimpinan The Royal Dutch dibentuk suatu persekutuan seluruh perusahaan penghasil minyak di Nusantara dengan nama Committe Of Producer atau Panitia Penghasil. Dalam persekutuan itu diberlakukan pembagian pengelolaan diantaranya; Bataafsche Petroleum Mij (BPM) dibidang produksi dan Asiatic Petroleum dibidang pemasaran serta Anglo Saxon dibidang pengangkatan.
