The Centre is a major initiative of the Western Australian Government, CSIRO and Curtin University of Technology, developed in conjunction with the petroleum and mining industries. The location of this leading global research institution in Western Australia is fitting, given that the State produces two-thirds of Australia’s non-fuel minerals and about half of its petroleum. ‘Growth in the sector is underpinned by high levels of investment with the total value of new capital expenditure by the State’s mining industry amounting to $22.8 billion in 2008-09, up 34 per cent from the previous fi nancial year.’ Foreword 3 Western Australia is one of the The Government will allocate $80 Industry and Research Report 2008-09 ARRC great mineral provinces of the world million to establish The Pawsey and our thriving resources sector High Performance Computing Australian Resources Research Centre Australian Resources Research Centre continues to drive the Australian Centre for SKA Science, as part of economy. the $160 million Super Science – Space and Astronomy package.

  • Computational Science Introducing: Computational Science
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Procedia Computer Science 18 ( 2013 ) 1456 – 1465 2013 International Conference on Computational Science Introducing: Computational Science Valerie Maxville1 iVEC, Perth, Western Australia Abstract A deep understanding of computational science takes years to develop, however a basic grasp can be achieved in a short workshop. This can create and nurture the spark of interest in computational approaches to solving science problems. A series of outreach activities has been developed for this purpose at iVEC in Western Australia. The activities include simulation and analogy to give an accessible introduction to computational science and supercomputing concepts. This paper describes the developed lesson plans and reflects on the results of delivering workshops to a range of audiences. © 2013 The Authors. PublisPublishedhed by Elsevier B.V. Selection and/orand peer peer-review review under under responsibility responsibility of theof theorganizers organizers of the of 2013the 2013 International International Conference Conference on Computational on Computational Science Keywords: computational science, education, outreach 1. Introduction Many of the key challenges society is facing require innovations in scientific research fields including: climate, water, disease, health, energy and sustainability. These areas are increasingly reliant on computational techniques and it is important that we grow the future researchers and technologists to be part of the necessarily diverse research teams. However, in Australia, as in many parts of the world, we continue to struggle to attract students into science and technology, and, for the last decade, computer science. As Western Australia is a resource-rich state, engineering is very popular. It is the author’s view that computational science will be more attractive to young people than the way they imagine science is undertaken.

  • Overview of the Liquid Fuels Sector in South Africa
    DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY PRESENTATION TO THE IEP STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION NELSPRUIT 19 NOVEMBER 2013 PRESENTED BY: MJ MACHETE OVERVIEW OF THE LIQUID FUELS SECTOR IN SOUTH AFRICA BY MOHUDI MACHETE Historical Excursion On The Liquid Fuels Sector • Liquid Fuels sector is more than 100 years in SA • Almost all petroleum products sold in South Africa were imported as refined product by the respective wholesale companies who distributed this to their branded retailers and various commercial customers. • In the first half of the 1950s, the government-initiated project to produce oil from South Africa’s abundant low- grade coal reserves, which saw the formation of the South African Coal, Oil and Gas Corporation Limited, later called Sasol Limited • In 1955 the first oil-from-coal-synthetic fuel plant – Sasol One – was constructed Historical Excursion On The Liquid Fuels Sector • Period of the Sasol Supply Agreements (SSA) or the Main Supply Agreement (MSA) between Sasol and the major distributors. • The international oil crisis of 1973 accelerated government’s plans to expand the capacity of Sasol’s oil-from-coal facilities • The UN’s imposition in 1977 of a mandatory crude oil embargo underlined these concerns, as did the Iranian revolution of 1979. • Sasol Two and Sasol Three were commissioned at Secunda, also in the inland region, in 1980 and 1982 respectively. Historical Excursion On The Liquid Fuels Sector • In 1987 when natural gas condensate was discovered off shore, the Government built a gas-to-liquids plant Mossel Bay (now owned and operated by PetroSA). • The Mossgas plant commenced production in late 1992. • Government, in addition to its direct intervention through Sasol to secure indigenous sources of petroleum product, also encouraged private sector initiatives aimed at addressing these concerns.
