Tectonic events responsible for Britain s oil and gas reserves

Offshore UK exploration activities have resulted in the discovery of over 20 x 10 9 barrels of oil reserves and 70 x 10 12 cubic feet of recoverable gas, most of which is located in the North Sea Basin. The majority of papers presented in this volume concentrate on this area, where a particular and...

Beskrivelse
Summary:Offshore UK exploration activities have resulted in the discovery of over 20 x 10 9 barrels of oil reserves and 70 x 10 12 cubic feet of recoverable gas, most of which is located in the North Sea Basin. The majority of papers presented in this volume concentrate on this area, where a particular and favourable tectonic evolution has led to the coincidence of good source rocks sufficiently deeply buried, good reservoir development and timely trap formation in relation to hydrocarbon generation and migration. It is the purpose of this volume to summarize the various tectonic phases which have contributed to the complex geological evolution of the British Isles and surrounding territorial waters and trace their impact upon the development of the hydrocarbon habitat.
