Getting out in the field and being able to touch, see and feel the objects of your training makes for the best possible experience. AAPG field seminars are designed to maximize your time and travel with a combination of field work, lecture and class work.

Field Seminar
Houston, Texas
Monday, 24 April 2023, 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.

This course will explore the best techniques and workflows when approaching a whole core analysis program where the end goal is to mitigate risk associated with any carbon monoxide/dioxide injection project. The program will be broken up into the following categories all focused specifically on CCUS injection and confining zones.

Field Seminar
Lisbon, Portugal
Tuesday, 20 June 2023, 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.

Come along on this 1-day field seminar and tour outcrops in the Serra de Montejunto, just north of Lisbon and on the coast from Porto Novo to Paimogo. Instructors: Ricardo Pereira, GeoBioTec - Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia, Universidade Nova de Lisboa. Gil Machado, ChronSurveys Lda & Instituto Dom Luiz Fees: €190 - Local VAT applicable Limit: 20 Participants Includes: Ground Transportation Snacks and Refreshments Lunch and Dinner Guidebook Departure Time/Location 20 June 2023 8:30am Hotel Dom Pedro Note:Transportation to start point is not included in the costs of this trip. Please bring clothing for hot day time temperatures (sun hat/ sun glasses/ sun cream etc.). Participants must wear suitable and comfortable light trekking shoes. Aims To gain or increase an understanding of the tectono-sedimentary processes of continental extension and rifting supported by outcrop observations, with focus on deep-depositional marine systems. Discuss implications for prospective petroleum systems. Promote debate and nourish new insights between attendants. About the Field Trip The Lusitanian Basin records the proximal events of syn- to post rift evolution of the hyper-extended West Iberian Margin, showing some outstanding examples of the combined tectono-stratigraphic depositional systems. Here, the Late Jurassic reveals diverse aspects of mixed marine depositional systems including not only submarine fans and turbidites, but also the build-up of carbonate reefs and shoreface to fluvial clastic sequences. Throughout the field trip the different depositional aspects can be observed in detail to demonstrate how such depositional systems can vary in time and space. Observation of these outcrops allows a better understanding on how deep-water depositional systems can change within a sub-basin and help improving the understanding of reservoir properties.

Geotour the Alfama (Old Town) of Lisbon with Gil Machado and explore the link between the history of Lisbon and its geology. Geotour Leader: Gil Machado, ChronSurveys Lda & Instituto Dom Luiz Departure Time/Location: 23 June 2023 9:30am Hotel Dom Pedro Fees: €60 - Local VAT applicable Note: Comfortable walking shoes, water, sunglasses and hat are recommended Itinerary St. Luzia Belvedere Roman/Moorish Wall - We will be seeing several preserved stretches of the wall and how it was incorporated into the city growth St. George Castle – We will visit the outer part. Lisbon Cathedral - We will be seeing the architectural aspects of the church, the building stones and, if open to the public, archaeological finds of the old mosque that stood in the same place. St. Anthony Church Roman Theatre - We will have a glimpse of Roman Lisbon with the view over the theatre and we will discuss the building stones used (which derived from many parts of the empire). Chafariz de Dentro - We will see several historical fountains, old thermal baths and explore the hydrogeology of Lisbon and how water supply affected the development of the city.
