There was a virtual smorgasbord of invaluable information disseminated to the SRO audience during the Dealmakers segment of the recent, highly-successful AAPG Prospect and Property Expo (APPEX) meeting in Houston. Presentations covered a plethora of topics, including capital sourcing, A&D market conditions, establishing a toehold overseas and more.

DL Abstract

Paleozoic North America has experienced multiple mountain building events, from Ordovician to Permian, on all margins of the continent. These have had a profound effect on the resulting complex basins and their associated petroleum systems. Subsequent uplift, erosion and overprinting of these ancient systems impedes the direct observation of their tectonic history. However, the basin sedimentary records are more complete, and provide additional insights into the timing and style of the mountain building events. In this study, we employ ~90 1D basin models, ~30 inverse flexural models, isopachs, and paleogeographic maps to better understand the Paleozoic history of North America.
