Table of Contents:
  • Reducing uncertainty and risk through field-based studies
  • Keeping safe in the field: what, how and why?
  • The value of fieldwork in making connections between onshore outcrops and offshore models: an example from India
  • Reservoir architectures of interlava systems: a 3D photogrammetrical study of Eocene cliff sections, Faroe Islands
  • Application of outcrop analogues in successful exploration of a sand injection complex, Volund Field, Norwegian North Sea
  • A new perspective on sequence stratigraphy of syn-orogenic basins: insights from the Tertiary Piedmont Basin (Italy) and implications for play concepts and reservoir heterogeneity
  • Ordovician shallow-marine tidal sandwaves in Algeria - the application of coeval outcrops to constrain the geometry and facies of a discontinuous, high-quality gas reservoir
  • Outcrop analogues for hydrocarbon reservoirs in the Columbus Basin, offshore east Trinidad
  • Making outcrops relevant for an unconventional source rock play: an example from the Eagle Ford Group of Texas
  • Field-based structural studies as analogues to sub-surface reservoirs
  • Developing digital fieldwork technologies at the British Geological Survey
  • Linking outcrop analogue with flow simulation to reduce uncertainty in sub-surface carbon capture and storage: an example from the Sherwood Sandstone Group of the Wessex Basin, UK
  • Do technical studies reduce subsurface risk in hydrocarbon exploration: and if not, how do they add value?
