Salt tectonics, sediments and prospectivity
From : 20.01.2010 Till : 21.01.2010 Location : London, United Kingdom
This international conference aims to bring together academic and industrial geoscientists to review recent advances in our understanding of halokinetic processes and to explore the links between salt tectonics and sediments. Contributions are invited that address key technical issues that include: How does salt tectonics manifest itself in sedimentary basins?; Comparisons of subsidence rates between tectonically generated basins and salt withdrawal minibasins?; Prediction of reservoir presence and quality and new generation facies models; What traps hydrocarbons in salt flank structures - salt side seal or sand pinch out?; Salt as a trapping and breaching mechanism - are salt welds sealing or leaky?; To what extent does salt suppress hydrocarbon maturation?; What role does salt play in sandstone diagenesis? as well as Sub-salt imaging - how far have we come, new approaches / techniques to make further improvements?
