Tectonostratigraphic evolution of the Gulf of Venezuela.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-07-11)The Gulf of Venezuela is located at the boundary between the Cretaceous-Cenozoic deformation zone of the South American and Caribbean plates. It is an underexplored area lying between the hydrocarbon-rich Maracaibo Basin ... -
Ground penetrating radar and seismic study to determine glacial deposit stratigraphy
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06-14)This work reviews two near-surface geophysical methods, ground penetrating radar and seismic, covering all the processes from the data acquisition to the interpretation. The area of study, Jæren, is located over glacial ... -
Data Assimilation Methods in Seismic Inversion
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06)Full-waverform inversion (FWI) is a powerful tool for getting high resolution images from seismic data to understand formations and the reservoir characteristics. But the inversion problems usually do not have unique ... -
Thermal evolution of the Nordkapp Basin and implications for its petroleum system
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06-15)The Nordkapp Basin is an elongated salt-bearing basin that developed during Late Palaeozoic-Early Mesozoic rifting in the southwestern Barents Sea. The presence of salt structures within the basin modified its temperature ... -
Time dependent signal of a chalk field: The South Arne Field, Danish North Sea
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06)Time-lapse seismic analysis is applied to a producing chalk field, with the aim to understand the field time-varying behaviour with respect to reservoir structure and fluid migration. The study area is the South Arne field ... -
An Integrated Study of the Transition of the Ula Formation from the Cod Terrace to the Sørvestlandet High; Implications for Reservoir Types, Distribution, and Carrier Beds for Hydrocarbon Migration
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-07)The Upper Jurassic deposits of the Eastern Margin in the Central Graben were influenced by syn-depositional halokinesis, which in turn affected the partitioning of environments and the resulting stratigraphic architecture. ... -
Geochemical Characterisation of Oils and Sediments from Cuba and Jamaica; Implications for the Northern Petroleum System
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-07-06)The Caribbean plate has a complex tectonic history and its petroleum potential is relatively unexplored. Jamaica and a large part of Cuba were once part of the Great Arc of the Caribbean (GAC), which was later deformed ... -
Fault Displacement Analysis in the Kalavryta Region of the Corinth Rift System, Greece.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06-15)The Corinth Rift of Central Greece is one of the world’s most active rifts. Regional N-S extension has resulted in a series of half-grabens within a system of uplifted, rotated and north-dipping normal faults. Extensive ... -
Quantitative seismic interpretation using converted PS waves: A case study from the Oseberg South Field, North Sea
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06)The converted wave (PS) seismic in combination with the compressional wave (PP) seismic may help in better description and understanding of subsurface stratigraphic and structural features. Since compressional and shear ... -
Fracture analysis and modelling of the South Arne field
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06-14)Fractures are paramount elements in reservoirs, and they are omnipresent in almost all outcrops. The importance of fractures lies in their ability to provide permeable pathways and consequently increase the reservoir ...
