Opis

The 30 contributions of this volume cover the main European regions for oil and gas exploration: the North Sea and adjacent areas, the central and eastern Mediterranean including offshore Albania, central and eastern Europe including Poland, Hungary, the Russian platform and offshore Bulgaria. Main topics are investigations to sequence stratigraphy, 3D-quantitative restoration and balanced structural sections, using the LOCACE equipment. Additional studies deal with a Monte Carlo method for generating models of porosity and permeability, with facies characterization using wireline logs or with petrographic applications of image analysis. As further reading this volume is of significant interest for researchers in oil and gas industries but also for scientists at universities.

O autorze

The method of sequence stratigraphy, developed by the petroleum industrie, covers a great portion of the 30 contributions of this volume. Most of them are focused on investigations to the stratigraphic and tectonic en- vironment, but also the quantitativ restoration by using balanced sections is applied. Contributions from east and southeast Europe provide important information about their oil and gas reservoirs. A significant volume for researchers in the petroleum industry but also valuable for scientists in universities.
