Delimiting morphological and volumetric elements of cave surveys as analogues for paleokarst reservoir modelling – A case study from the Maaras cave system, northern Greece
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Active karst systems can offer good analogues for paleokarst reservoir modelling as they can provide links between present karst system geometries and the final reservoir architecture. Although clastic sediments are a ... -
Exploring seismic detection and resolution thresholds of fault zones and gas seeps in the shallow subsurface using seismic modelling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Seismic resolution and illumination issues are sources of challenges in the detailed imaging and detection of subsurface fault architecture and fluid migration. Improved constraints on resolution can provide input into ... -
Geocellular rendering of cave surveys in paleokarst reservoir models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Infilled and collapsed cave systems are an important component of many paleokarst reservoirs. Incorporating these features into industrial reservoir models commonly relies on geostatistical modelling methods that often ... -
Imaging along-strike variability in fault structure; insights from seismic modelling of the Maghlaq Fault, Malta
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Seismic modelling studies of outcrop analogues have proven a powerful method to provide a link between geology as observed at outcrop, and the interpretation of subsurface geology from seismic data. Seismic imaging of fault ... -
Imaging of small-scale faults in seismic reflection data: Insights from seismic modelling of faults in outcrop
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Faults with throws that fall below vertical seismic resolution are challenging to identify in reflection seismic datasets. Nevertheless, such small-scale faults may still affect the seismic images, and in this study, we ... -
Impacts of small-scale faults on continental to coastal plain deposition: Evidence from the Realgrunnen Subgroup in the Goliat field, southwest Barents Sea, Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-08)In this study we synthesise sedimentological, fault, and Amplitude Versus Angle (AVA) analysis and propose that the Fruholmen and Tubåen formations (Realgrunnen Subgroup) are syn-kinematic deposits that record a previously ... -
Paleoenvironmental and diagenetic evolution of the Aptian Pre-Salt succession in Namibe Basin (Onshore Angola)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The Aptian Pre-Salt sedimentary succession cropping out in Cangulo palaeovalley onshore Namibe Basin (Angola) was studied by a combination of field and analytical techniques to constrain the sedimentary and diagenetic ... -
Preserved eolian bedforms control reservoir heterogeneity: Characterization and modeling workflow for the Avilé Member, Neuquén Basin, Argentina
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Under certain conditions, most commonly abrupt flooding events, entire eolian bedforms can be incorporated into the geological record. Sediment that was essentially ‘in transport’ within these bedforms at the time of ... -
Sediment deformation atop the Lomonosov Ridge, central Arctic Ocean: Evidence for gas-charged sediment mobilization
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)We have used a hovercraft platform drifting with the sea ice to acquire the first digitally recorded seismic reflection data transects across the Canada/Greenland (89°N-85°N) section of the Lomonosov Ridge, central Arctic ... -
Tectonostratigraphic development of the Upper Triassic to Middle Jurassic in the Hoop Area, Barents Sea: Implications for understanding ultra-condensed reservoir units
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The most prolific reservoir intervals in the Barents Sea are found in the Upper Triassic to Middle Jurassic Realgrunnen Subgroup, deposited during a major change in the structural evolution of the basin which greatly ... -
Tracing Lower Cretaceous organic-rich units across the SW Barents Shelf
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)On the Barents Shelf, the northernmost and least explored hydrocarbon province of the Norwegian Continental Shelf, Upper Jurassic organic-rich shales have traditionally been given most attention as these represent the most ... -
Upper cretaceous-paleogene stratigraphy and development of the Mímir High, Vøring transform margin, Norwegian Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Transform margins represent strike-slip type of plate boundaries that form during continental breakup and initial ocean opening. They are often characterized by margin-parallel highs with exposed pre- and syn-rift sequences. ...
