Full Details

The Petroleum Group of the Geological Society is hosting a 2 day conference focusing on advances in modelling of basin formation, fill and fluids.

Themes:
• Basin formation (tectonic and crustal modelling)
• Sediment forward modelling - predicting reservoir, source and seal quality
• Petroleum systems modelling - Predicting hydrocarbon generation, expulsion, migration and timing
• Fluid distribution, pressure, fluid type and biodegradation
• Callibration of models using observed fields and fluid distribution
• Building better integrated models and new technologies

Confirmed Keynote Speakers:
• Prof. Joe Cartwright: Cardiff University
• Dr. Johannes Wendebourg: Shell
• Dr. Nicky White: Cambridge University
