Another successful Geo Logica Salt Basins Field Trip took place last week, between Algarve and Lusitanian Basins in Portugal.
The world-class exposures at mines, quarries and coastal outcrops visited allowed participants to consolidate their knowledge of salt deposition processes and tectonic principles and understand its implications on their daily work activities.
At the outcrops we observed how hydrocarbons can be generated and accumulated in and around salt structures, and discuss potential drilling issues and geohazard prediction while working with these structures for energy production and storage.
Many thanks to PETROBRAS PETROLEO BRASILEIRO SA and the Staatstoezicht op de Mijnen (SodM) for the ideas shared during the fourth edition of this comprehensive field-based training course. Special thanks to Ian Davison for joining us again in the field and for helping making this course a world reference in salt tectonics training.
