Sequence Stratigraphy for Petroleum Exploration
A two-day short course on which is a “hands-on” introduction to the concepts and practical applications of sequence stratigraphy.
Through a mix of lectures, in-class work sessions and exercises the course will review:
- Basic concepts and terminology of sequence stratigraphy.
- The stratigraphic building blocks of depositional sequences.
- Recognition criteria for the identification of depositional sequences and their components in outcrops, cores, well logs and seismic.
- The application of sequence stratigraphy in non-marine, shallow marine and submarine depositional settings.
- Implications for play element prediction in petroleum exploration.
