This Symposium marks a collaborative event that brings together AAPG Europe and AAPG Middle East, with a central focus on carbonates and mixed carbonate systems worldwide, while highlighting their significance within these two regions. The primary objectives are an overview of controls that govern the evolution of these systems in time and space and the characterization and prediction of their properties across scales. Through overview presentations and case studies, the symposium will address these systems with emphasis on new scientific developments equally as on exploration and characterization of the subsurface in the era of sustainability.
The Symposium invites a review of the state of past and present knowledge on controls on how these systems develop and the introduction of new frontiers in such understanding. It will explore a spectrum of scales, from basin-wide sedimentology and sequence stratigraphy to diagenesis, pore network, and petrophysics, as well as the application of surface and subsurface mapping and characterization methods. The event will have oral presentations, poster sessions, and field trips and aims to engage high-caliber participation from experts within the energy sector and academic institutions alike. The Symposium benefits from its location, set against the picturesque backdrop of Sicily, with diverse outcrops including the renowned giant Messinian Salt. The Sicilian experience offers a view into how European and Middle Eastern cultures have melded in the past, an ideal backdrop to merging the communities of two AAPG regions today.
AAPG is negotiating preferential rates at the hotel and further information will be shared shortly.
