Abstract: Comparing outcrop data to laboratory results is important to verify and validate experiments of analogue and reservoir materials especially regarding conditions for deformation experiments. This is important better understand highly complex carbonate reservoir strata and their response to changes in subsurface conditions, reducing subsurface uncertainty. This study develops methods to allow for a more straightforward comparison of outcrop data (m-scale) with experimentally created fracture arrays developed in cylindrical samples (cm-scale). The main objective is to assess usefulness of experimentally-produced fracture networks as analogues for subsurface structures, typically at the meter and above scale by developing new techniques to use the lab deformation. It analyses key characteristics of laboratory-induced fracture networks by adapting scanline methods to use with x-ray tomography (XRT) images to allow for comparison with outcrop and field data. To test and verify these new methods two low permeability carbonate samples were used for deformation testing and analysis. Applying the different scanline methods we show that they can be used to analyse lab induced fractures (mm to cm-scale) identified in XRT images for comparison with outcrop data (m-scale). In addition, these methods also allow for quantification of fracture network attributes e.g. fracture spacing, fracture apertures, orientation. This new data bridges the gap between micro-scanlines using thin sections and outcrop scanlines.

ABSTRACT*Zefara* Field formation Baturaja on South Sumatra Basin is a reservoir carbonate and prospective gas. Data used in this research were 3D seismik data, well logs, and geological information. According to geological report known that hidrocarbon traps in research area were limestone lithological layer as stratigraphical trap and faulted anticline as structural trap. The study restricted in effort to make a hydrocarbon accumulation and a potential carbonate reservoir area maps with seismic attribute. All of the data used in this study are 3D seismic data set, well-log data and check-shot data. The result of the analysis are compared to the result derived from log data calculation as a control analysis. Hydrocarbon prospect area generated from seismic attribute and are divided into three compartments. The seismic attribute analysis using RMS amplitude method and instantaneous frequency is very effective to determine hydrocarbon accumulation in *Zefara* field, because low amplitude from Baturaja reservoir. Low amplitude hints low AI, determined high porosity and high hydrocarbon contact (HC).  Keyword: Baturaja Formation, RMS amplitude seismic attribute, instantaneous frequency seismic attribute

Main Factors

One of the options being considered for the disposal of radioactive waste is deep burial in crystalline rocks such as granite. It is generally recognised that in such rocks groundwater flows mainly through the fracture networks so that these will be the “highways” for the return of radionuclides to the biosphere. The main factors retarding the radionuclide transport have been considered to be the slow water movement in the fissures over the long distances involved together with sorption both in man-made barriers surrounding the waste, and onto rock surfaces and degradation products in the fissures.
