Geological Society of London Palaeozoic Plays of Northwest Europe

Palaeozoic hydrocarbon plays in NW Europe remain relatively under-explored, both on- and offshore, despite the great success of local plays such as the Carboniferous and Permian in the southern North Sea. There is renewed momentum to understand and explore these plays further, including for example the joint-industry Palaeozoic Project, part of the UK Industry/Government’s “21st Century Exploration Roadmap” initiative.This Petroleum Group conference is intended to bring together new and existing knowledge about the Palaeozoic in NW Europe. Themes will include, but are not limited to:• Palaeozoic exploration plays • Outcrop analogues • Palaeozoic source rocks • Palaeozoic shale oil and gas • Existing oil and gas field examples • Pre-Mesozoic fractured playsAs one of the convenors, Dr. Andrea James will be in attendance on both days of the conference and will be very happy to discuss Badley Ashton’s services and how we can help you.
