Petroleum Geology of NW Europe: Proceedings of the 5th conference held at the Barbican Centre, London, 26-29th October 1997

Abstract

Provides an extensive review of the significant advances made in understanding the petroleum geology of the Atlantic margin of northwest Europe, of the North Sea and of adjacent areas since the last conference in 1992. In particular, the volumes focus on: - the development and application of 3D seismic, time-lapse ('4D') seismic and other innovative seismic tools; - the ongoing refinement of sequence and other stratigraphic approaches, including the integration of detailed biostratigraphic data; - the development of modelling at both the reservoir and basin scale which can respond to new data acquisition and be used to assess uncertainties at the reservoir scale and scenarios at the basin scale. The two-volume set will be of interest to all geoscientists involved in the exploration for, and development and production of, petroleum along the Atlantic margin of northwest Europe, in the 'mature' North Sea and throughout the surrounding areas.
