The country has numerous mountains and some 400 volcanoes, of which approximately 100 are active. Between 1972 and 1991 alone, twentynine volcanic eruptions were recorded, mostly on Java. The most violent volcanic eruptions in modern times occured in Indonesia. In 1815, a volcano at Gunung Tambora [erupted]... claimed 92,00 lives and created "the year without a summer" in various parts of the world. In 1883 Krakatau in the Sundra Strait between Java and Sumatra, erupted and some 36,000 West Javens died form the resulting tidal wave. The sound of the explosion was reported as far away as Turkey and Japan. For almost a century following that eruption, krakatua was quiet, until the late 1970s, when it erupted twice..."<BR/><BR/>"Sea depths in the Sundra and Sahul shelves average 200 meters or less..."<BR/><BR/>Clearly, this is one "hot potato" volcanically, but also the sea depth is relatively shallow -- easy for offshore drilling rigs to explore for elusive larger oil deposits "at depth."<BR/><BR/>Indonesia is ripe for "Abiotic Principles" to be applied in the quest for oil.Anacondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05522474791573134808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100054477013501859.post-56406235615084801092008-06-12T08:00:00.000-07:002008-06-12T08:00:00.000-07:00INDONESIA: PREDICTION BASED ON ABIOTIC PRINCIPLESR...INDONESIA: PREDICTION BASED ON ABIOTIC PRINCIPLES<BR/><BR/>Reference,<BR/>(OIM) Post, Hydrocarbon Outgassing Causes Mud Volcano, June 11, 2008, Comment #1, Indonesia: Least Explored, Best Candidate for Abiotic Oil Regeneration, 6/11/08.<BR/><BR/>One of the criticisms of abiotic theory was that it was not easily transferable to actual oil exploration and production.<BR/><BR/>This is fast changing, as oil exploration and production moves into well depths and geologic formations in which "fossil" theory predicted there would be "NO OIL" (emphasis added). <BR/><BR/>A theory ain't much good, if it predicts no oil will be found. And, then other explorers, using a better theory, come up, striking it rich -- that's called having egg on your face -- big time.<BR/><BR/>Such is the situation of "fossil" theory. Why did that happen? Because in order to put down abiotic theory, which predicted deep, large deposits of oil -- "fossil" theory said: "No. There ain't no oil down there, abiotic oil is impossible -- don't waste your time and money." <BR/><BR/>Who turned out to waste time and money?<BR/><BR/>And by following the "fossil" heads' advice, many got left at the dock.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, back to Indonesia.<BR/><BR/>This writer didn't know much about Indonesia, other than it was an early oil producer, the Japanese attacked the Dutch East Indies to steal the oil, and Indonesia had dropped out of OPEC, after being an original charter member.<BR/><BR/>But this writer did know something else: Abiotic oil principles.<BR/><BR/>And with that basic knowledge, was able to predict that Indonesia was under-explored based on its "Abiotic Geology."<BR/><BR/>"Abiotic Principles" led to the prediction, and thanks to OilIsMastery, the reader can see this writer turned out to be pretty accurate in my assessment:<BR/><BR/>"Throughout the archipelago there were sixy known basins with oil potential; only thirty-six basins had been explored and only fourteen were producing."<BR/><BR/>Okay, Chevron is using cutting edge technology -- they ain't using wooden oil derricks.<BR/><BR/>Still, the larger prediction stands -- and that was based on "Abiotic Principles."<BR/><BR/>Excerpt from Indonesian Oil:<BR/><BR/>"Indonesia's oil reserves were usally found in Medium and small-sized fields, so that continued exploration was vital to maintain production and known reserves."<BR/><BR/>Could there be deeper, larger, oil trapping geologic reservoir structures?<BR/><BR/>This writer suspects we will find out.Anacondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05522474791573134808noreply@blogger.com
