Aim: To provide the student with knowledge in analyses and understanding of properties, geometries and distribution of sediments and soils for engineering, environmental and reservoir geological applications
|
Contents: Distribution and geometry of sediments (carbonates-siliciclastics) and soils
- depositional processes as relevant for understanding and 3D modelling of distribution and geometry
- use of geological models for correlation and reconstruction of reservoir-aquifer architecture
- environmental setting and sediment composition
- hydrocarbon source rocks, seals and reservoirs
- deformational processes and structures (tectonics)
- basin analyses and 4D geometry and distribution of sediments
- construction, interpretation and applications of geological models: stratigraphy (1D), geological maps (2D) and cross sections (2-3D).
- natural disasters as a result of geological processes (geohazards)
Properties of sediments and soils
- influence of depositional processes on properties and heterogeneity
- postdepositional diagenetic processes and reservoir quality
- heterogeneity
- analytical methods
- composition and texture of raw materials as constraints on their use.
