Horizon provide a wide range of analytical services to support all phases of exploration,
appraisal and development programmes. These range from field sample collection and analysis
to reservoir scale stratigraphy and geochemistry studies. While the main focus is on
biostratigraphic and geochemical services, Horizon also provide sedimentology, core
analysis and PVT work through our associations with various analytical and consulting
companies.
Horizon partner with specialist analytical laboratories to provide the highest quality
analytical data and use experienced interpreters with local experience to ensure maximum
value is obtained from the analytical programme performed.

Horizon specialize in provision of high quality biostratigraphic data sets and interpretation through the use of
experienced stratigraphers. Studies have been carried out throughout Indonesia but particular areas of specialism include
the Mesozoic of Eastern Indonesia and Papua New Guinea where both exploration and reservoir scale studies are being performed
on a regular basis. Horizon can provide rigsite units equipped with expert staff fully familiar with
rigsite health and safety.

The geochemistry service provided by Horizon is based on provision of geochemical
experts to devise cost-effective analytical programmes designed to answer specific
exploration and development problems, the use of specialized laboratories to provide
high quality analytical data and access to experienced interpreters with extensive
local knowledge. This approach ensures maximum value from targeted geochemistry programmes.

Horizon can provide a full range of sedimentological services to support exploration,
appraisal, development and production services. These services rely on local project
supervision with analytical and interpretation work carried out by specialist laboratories
and experienced sedimentologists and reservoir geologists. The data and interpretation
are aimed at providing timely answers to reservoir issues, including reservoir modeling,
development planning and production issues.

Core and special core analyses are provided by Horizon, in collaboration with specialist
core analysis facilities in Jakarta. Core information is then combined with sedimentological
analysis by experienced reservoir geologists to provide an integrated understanding of reservoir
quality, distribution and producability.

PVT analyses are provided by Horizon, in collaboration with specialist PVT analysis
facilities in Jakarta. These facilities can provide a wide range of services to assist
in understanding fluid properties under surface and sub-surface conditions and the implications
of this information for reserves assessment, field development and reservoir engineering studies.

Horizon have been appointed sole agents for the provision of FIS analyses in Indonesia
by Fluid Inclusion Technologies (FIT) from Tulsa, USA. FIS analysis involves full well
analysis of fluid inclusion volatile content by the FIS volatile mapping technique.
Unlike classical geochemical techniques that analyze residual pore fluids, FIS analysis
examines trapped fluids (inclusions) in diagenetic cements and healed microfractures.
These fluid inclusions are not subject to evaporation during sample storage or loss of
light ends during sampling from depth. They persist in the geological record long after
the parent fluids have moved on, but are continuously formed even up to the very recent past.
Hence, fluid inclusion studies have the potential to provide a detailed account of petroleum
distribution and charge history. Full-well profiles of key inorganic and C1-C13 organic
species are constructed from FIS results. These data are interpreted in terms of petroleum
inclusion presence, type and quality; possibility for deeper or lateral proximal pay; and
prominent seals or reservoir compartments. FIS results and stratigraphic information are
used to determine samples to undertake classic fluid inclusion petrography, biomarker
geochemistry and API gravity determinations.
