Sedimentary response to tectonism and rifting in basins on the Norwegian shelf and onshore Norway
(Doctoral thesis, 2021-09-10)The Norwegian sedimentary basins offshore and onshore have in variable degree been influenced by tectonism as rifting and faulting during deposition. This stems from post Caledonian extensional events that affected both ... -
Sedimentation in a synclinal shallow-marine embayment: Coniacian of the North Sudetic Synclinorium, SW Poland
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)This study is a reconstruction of the Coniacian palaeogeographic and palaeoenvironmental development in the North Sudetic Basin, a synclinal trough within the Late Cretaceous Central European seaway linking the Boreal and ... -

(Master thesis, 2000)The present study, focused in the valley-side gravel fans in the eastern part of Endalen and the adjoining side-slope of Adventdalen, has contributed to an understanding of the spatial pattern of the late Weichselian ... -
Sedimentologi og sandkroppgeometri av Hollendardalenformasjonen, Nordenskiöld Land, Spitsbergen
(Master thesis, 2011-06-01)Hollendardalenformasjonen (senpaleocen) er første sandsteinsenhet som bygger seg ut fra den vestlige marginen av Sentralbassenget på Svalbard og markerer slik et skille fra et østlig til et vestlig kildeområde under ... -
Sedimentological and petrographical investigations of the Early Triassic Vardebukta Formation on western Spitsbergen
(Master thesis, 2017-12-06)The earliest Triassic Barents Sea Basin received sediments from three sedimentary systems. Of these, the Fennoscandian and the Uralian systems have been well studied highlighting their sedimentology, provenance, extent and ... -
Sedimentological and petrophysical analysis of the Monte Sant'Angelo Megabreccias (Cenomanian), Gargano, southern Italy
(Master thesis, 2008-06-02)The Monte Sant'Angelo Megabreccias (Cenomanian) is one of three distinct and impressive Cretaceous megabreccias exposed on the flank of the Apulian platform, Gargano Promontory, southern Italy. This thesis describes and ... -
The Sedimentological Development of the Fangst Group, Halten Terrace, Mid-Norway
(Master thesis, 2010-06-14)Cores from well 6506/12-1 of the Smørbukk Field (Halten Terrace, Mid-Norway) show a nearly complete 175 meter thick section comprising the Middle Jurassic Fangst Group and the upper part of the underlying Ror Formation of ... -
Sedimentological facies analyses of Clinothem 8C (Eocene), Battfjellet Formation, Brogniartfjella, Svalbard
(Master thesis, 2017-12-15)The Eocene Battfjellet Formation in Van Keulenfjorden, Spitsbergen, Svalbard, has been investigated on the basis of a logged section at eastern Brogniartfjella. A comprehensive study of clinothem 8C, with focus on facies ... -
Sedimentological facies analysis of the mid-Jurassic Garn Formation in Halten Terrace area, Mid-Norway Continental Shelf
(Master thesis, 2017-06-21)The mid-Jurassic Garn Formation in the Halten Terrace area, Mid-Norway Continental Shelf, has been studied on the basis of ~500 m of well-core samples from 9 selected wells, geophysical wireline logs from nearly 30 wide-spread ... -
Sedimentological facies models and correlation of the Kobbe Formation in the Goliat Field compared with outcrops at Sørkapp-Land, Spitsbergen

Sedimentology and Geometry of Fluvial and Deltaic Sandbodies in the Eocene Green River Formation, Eastern Utah
(Master thesis, 2014-06-02)A large part of the world’s remaining hydrocarbon reserves are located in reservoirs of fluvial origin. The main building blocks of these reservoirs are channel‐belt sandbodies with varied geometries and spatial stacking. ... -
Sedimentology and palynology of the Lower Cretaceous succession of central Spitsbergen: integration of subsurface and outcrop data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-06-27)The Lower Cretaceous succession in Svalbard is commonly considered as an important analogue to age-equivalent strata on the Barents Shelf which are sporadically targeted by exploration wells. In this study, the stratigraphic ... -
