Cementing is one of the most important parts in oil-well drilling. Recent development in oil-well drilling technology has led to a more problematic case in cementing. High temperature cementing is one of the problems. High temperature cementing may cover steam recovery wells, geothermal wells and ultra deep wells. The use of expanding cements as an effort to improve the sealing efficacy of annulus cementing has been considered for a long time as a promising solution to the existing problems. CaO and MgO have been proposed as two of the most effective additives to create excellent expanding cement. The purpose of this study is to find the effect of adding up burnt pure CaO and MgO to the value of compressive strength and shear bond strength of API class G cement in high pressure and high temperature condition. The method that we used within this research is an evaluation of the data taken from a simulator that simulated within temperature range of 100-250 o C and pressure of 2000 psi. The conclusion is taken according to the results which saying that the addition of burnt pure CaO and MgO would increase the shear bond strength and the compressive strength on specific condition up to 200 o C temperature. The addition won't be effective for the condition of 250 o C temperature. The behavior of cement strength was also influenced by the length of curing time. Further more, research on expanding cement needs to be developed and extended whether to vary its compositions, temperatures, or curing time conditions. The compatibility when mixed with other additives together with silica flour has not yet been figured out.
The method that uses microorganisms to increase oil recovery from reservoir rocks is called Microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR). Using this method, the microorganisms are injected to the reservoir and produce the metabolic product which is used in MEOR. There are 6 main metabolic products (bio-products) that can be effected to the reservoir fluid and rock. The 6 main bio-products are bio-surfactant, bio-polymer, bio-mass, bio-solvent, bio-gases and bio-acid. Every bio-product has a different effect on the reservoir and is produced by different microbes, with its purpose being to decrease the residual oil saturation that is left behind in the reservoir rock. Bio-surfactant can reduce the interfacial tension between oil and the formation water and bio-polymers control the mobility of water that is used in waterflooding. Biomass can plug the reservoir pores and then change the flow direction of fluid flow in the rock. Bio-gas increases reservoir pressure and then forces the oil out of the rocks. Bio-acid can dissolve rock particles and open pore mouths, thus increasing rock porosity and permeability and allowing more fluid to flow, especially in Limestone. A MEOR field trial was successfully applied at ‘X’ Field X in Indonesia, involves 10 wells. It can decrease oil viscosity, increase in Oil API Gravity and decrease of the oil pour point. Oil production rate increased from 8 to 66%. Scale is observed as a disadvantage of successful MEOR. The results from this field trial demonstrate that MEOR is potential and offers some benefit to increase oil production.
The AOV-1 well is a development well that is planned to be drilled in the “ANTARIS” Field. Based on the data obtained from the nearest well of “AOV-1” well, a casing design will be carried out, therefore it is necessary to select casing specifications. So that it can meet the requirements technically and economically. Casing design planning is the preparation of file collected from drilling prognosis, and daily drilling report so that it can be used for calculation of pressure parameters, knowing stratigraphy, lithology, subsurface data, availability of casing stock in warehouse, and planning technical calculations for casing design operations such as d-exponent calculation to determine pore pressure, pressure calculation (formation pressure, overburden pressure, fracture pressure), calculation of the load received by casing (burst load, burst load design, collapse design), determination of casing setting depth, casing grade selection for casing design, calculation of biaxial stress correction of tension and compression stress, calculation of safety factor, and finally, calculation of economics from planning casing design. 7 ” casing program grade K-55, 20 PPF, BTC at a depth of 0 - 1968.5 ft TVD with safety factor Ni = 3.83 each; Nc = 2.19; Nj = 13.54, only 1 section is performed. casing program 9/8 " Casing program with grade K-55, 36 PPF, BTC at a depth of 0 - 820 ft.

The total cost for casing planning is $ 57,689 or around Rp. 816,876,240 of the budget provided, which is $ 65,000 or around Rp. 920,400,000.
The majority artificial lift used in MPA Field use PCTGL (Permanent coil tubing gas lift). PCTGL is installed on several monobore well or dual monobore well. Some wells in the MPA Field have waxy HPPO oil character with pour point between 85-100oF with API between 30-35. The well "MM-1" has a HPPO character with pour point 95oF. The character high Pour point oil of the well will be problem to be solved. The MM-1 well is produced with PCTGL. From the simulation, a PCTGL design was obtained at a depth of 2250 ft. With the character of HPPO oil, pour point depressant injection optimization is also carried out along with the injection of gas lift so that the chemical can work from the downhole. The results of the bottle test of pour point depressant use concentration of 1000 ppm to reach the target. The results of the field test showed that the concentration of Pour Point Depressant of 1026 ppm was able to change the pour point up to 65oF. The results of optimization production showed that the production of MM-1 wells was able to increase with production of 290 bopd.
This study was used to identify and increase the interest of students of the Department of Petroleum Engineering, Faculty of Mineral Technology, UPN "Veteran" Yogyakarta in publishing scientific articles. the publication of scientific articles has an effect on improving the quality of majors in a university so that it is necessary to support the increase in the publication of scientific articles. The method used in this research is quantitative in the form of socialization, questionnaires, and holding competitions to explore potential interests and talents, as well as awarding student work appreciation. The results obtained from this study are in the form of increasing the quality of publications from competitions conducted with 3 scientific articles with national journal standards and 4 standard posters. From this progress, it is hoped that interest in writing standardized scientific articles will continue to increase, thus the quality of education and achievement of scientific work indicators of a university is achieved.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
