This is the first of three one-day workshops focused on “Basin Mastery”. It is hosted by AAPG Europe and PESGB. The subject of this first workshop is Petroleum Geology of Myanmar (Onshore and Offshore Basins).

The “Basin Mastery” workshops will allow delegates to establish both a scientific and commercial outlook required for successful play development in past, present and future potentially prosperous plays in exciting basins. The course aims to take delegates from basin-to-play-to-prospect though a detailed exploration history and specific areas of expertise including structural geology and petroleum systems. The involvement of data providers where possible, will allow delegates to gain a coherent understanding of how to illustrate the subsurface and determine the success of the play in question.

The series will also include the Greenland and Labrador, and the Atlantic Equatorial Basins.

All workshops will take place at the PESGB headquarters in Croydon, easily accessible from central London.
