Field discovered in Australia in 2004 by Chevron (100% interest) with estimated reserves of 5-10 trillion cubic feet (142-283 billion cubic meters). Wheatstone-2 appraisal well was drilled end 2007. Chevron has said they intend developing the field as a 100% liquefaction field producing 5 mtpa of LNG
Wet scrubbers are the most widespread method to remove sulfur dioxide in the flue gas desulfursation system and can be up to 99% effective. A mixture of limestone and water is sprayed over the flue gas and this mixture reacts with the SO² to form gypsum (a calcium sulphate), which is removed and used in the construction industry. See also flue gas desulfurization system
Oil that contains basic sediments and water
A physical barrel of crude oil or refined product as opposed to a “paper barrel.”
Natural gas containing liquid hydrocarbons – commonly condensate
Reservoir rock that contains water but not hydrocarbons

The value at the mouth of the well. In general, the wellhead price is considered to be the sales price obtainable from a third party in an arm’s length transaction. Posted prices, requested prices, or prices as defined by lease agreements, contracts, or tax regulations should be used where applicable. Natural gas price may be measured at different stages of the supply chain and the first price is the wellhead price
A well test is when the well is opened up and flowed under controlled conditions. There are several short (hours) periods of flow with various choke valve settings with shut in periods of build up in between. Flow testing confirms the capability of the reservoir to deliver. DST are essential for SEC reserves booking. Testing service to help characterize a reservoir economically and provide as clear a picture as possible of a well’s ability to produce
The physical, chemical and biological processes that decompose rock at and below the surface of the Earth through low pressures and temperatures and the presence of air and water
