OBJECTIVES AND STATUS REPORT - SCI.GEO.PETROLEUM
MONTHLY POSTING
First released: September 11th, 1994
Last updated: February 1st, 1996
OBJECTIVES:
-----------
Sci.geo.petroleum was created for the more efficient dissemination of
public petroleum data. The aim is to provide an electronic
communication venue for specialists of varying backgrounds employed
by, or associated with the oil and gas industry who would not,
normally, attend the same conferences or short courses.
An important secondary objective is to encourage global communications
between technical experts, managerial staff, government and
environmental organisations and the general public. The integrated
approach to problem-solving is aimed at accelerating advancements in
global energy planning, leading to the more efficient recovery and
use of hydrocarbons, and further improvements in health and safety and
environmental protection.
FOR DISCUSSION:
---------------
Exploration technology
Production technology
Development technology
Environmental protection (minimization of impact)
Health
Safety and OSHA standards
Drilling technology
Transportation technology
Research and development
Reservoir geomechanics
Reservoir uncertainty
Reservoir simulation
Wellbore stabilities
Hydraulic fracturing
Facility uncertainty
Software
Hardware/Equipment - specifications, opinions, etc.
Databases
Applications
Announcements/reviews of papers/conferences.
General discussions/opinions/questions.
Positions vacant
Professional news
Economic issues
(Any petroleum-related issues which may be relevant)
WANTED:
-------
Oil and gas news
Information about new petroleum technologies (*NO ADVERTISING*)
Short petroleum-related technical abstracts
Table of Contents of the latest petroleum-related journals or books
Short executive summaries of new petroleum publications
Calls for papers
Conference calendars and programmes
Details of professional meetings
Information about short courses
Announcements of new petroleum WWW pages
Information about oil and gas vacancies
Research seminar details
Departmental news
General tips
Any quality input
(The purpose of the newsgroup is to _inform_ rather than to sell.
The
above guidelines were established by community consensus. If you
have
additional suggestions, please inform the sci.geo.petroleum
community.)

STATUS REPORT AND BEGINNERS' INFORMATION VIA E-MAIL:
----------------------------------------------------
The memorandum, including latest updates and general beginners'
information about access to the newsgroup can also be obtained by
sending an e-mail message to 'coo...@ncpgg.adelaide.edu.au'
(automatic reply facility, no text is required). The service is
intended for colleagues who do not currently have access to the
petroleum users' group and are unfamiliar with the technology
(e-mail addresses will remain confidential).
In excess of 750 individuals from at least 36 countries have made
use of the facility since the end of October 1994. Countries
represented include Argentina, Australia, Austria, Bahrain,
Canada, Chile, Colombia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece,
Iceland, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, the Netherlands,
New Zealand, Nigeria, Norway, Poland, Saudi Arabia, Singapore,
South Africa, the former Soviet Union, Sweden, Switzerland,
Taiwan, Thailand, Tunisia, the U.K., USA, Venezuela, and Zambia

POSTING MESSAGES TO S.G.P. USING E-MAIL:
----------------------------------------
Individuals at organisations which do not subscribe to Usenet
newsgroups can contact the network via e-mail. Send your
contributions or questions to 'sci.geo....@news.demon.co.uk'.
Do not forget to include:
- A subject line relevant to your message
- Your real name (and company, if appropriate)
- Your e-mail address
- A request to send replies to your e-mail address
- A standard disclaimer, if appropriate. - "these are my opinions,
not those of my employer" or something similar
Also, please limit your text to no more than 72 characters per line.
Most editors have a fill or format mode that will accomplish this
task for you automatically. However, make sure that it actually puts
('hard') newline characters at the end of each line, rather than just
wrapping the displayed lines on your screen.
