This course is aimed at providing an overview of the petroleum prospectivity of the offshore basins bordering the discrete Eastern and Western Mediterranean oceanic basins. The first part of the course is spent on a regional overview of the Tethyan system, based on palaeotectonic time slice maps, aimed at unravelling the complex evolution of the region and its impact on petroleum systems . The remainder is devoted to an overview of the framework of the main basins and petroleum systems, presented in a series of play cross-sections and in exercises, with a particular emphasis on the biogenic gas plays developing in the region. Your Trainer Dr Duncan Macgregor is a well know author and presenter on regional African petroleum geology.
