The license area offshore northeast Greenland represents a vast frontier exploration province. The aim of this work has been to develop a better understanding of the prospectivity in the region within the current structural and stratigraphic framework. The study comprises 4 elements 1) regional structural interpretation, 2) regional sequence stratigraphic interpretation, 3) 1D temperature modelling and 4) identification of conjugate margin analogues. The structural and stratigraphic interpretations conducted during this study have generated a regional framework for prospectivity analyses. Additional studies into thermal maturity of likely source rocks, the creation of a stratigraphic column and the identification of conjugate margin analogues have facilitated the development of a regional understanding of NE Greenland. The database of potential seismic analogues for NE Greenland identified during ongoing seismic interpretation on the Norwegian Shelf continues to grow and as further tuning of this knowledgebase is possible with the addition of new data (particularly seismic) in coming years will in time provide powerful predictive tools for exploration in NE Greenland. |
