Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis:
The exploration for hydrocarbons in the sedimentary basins to the west of mainland Britain has taken something of a backseat role when compared to the more prolific basins of the North Sea. Despite this, significant discoveries have been made over the last 25 or so years by those companies determined to pursue this distinctive hydrocarbon province. The first major reward in the area was the discovery of the giant Morecambe Gas Field in the 1970s, the second added more than a dozen oil and gas fields between 1990 and 1995, including the Lennox and Douglas Oil Fields. It was the improvements in the geological understanding of the area that occurred concomitant with these later discoveries which inspired the Burlington House conference in 1995 from which this volume has resulted.
The volume addresses all aspects of the petroleum geology, not only in the East Irish Sea Basin, but in the adjacent Cheshire, Solway, Carlisle and North Channel Basins, as well as dealing with regional aspects of the structure and evolution of the area. It is the hope of the editors that bringing all of this work together in one volume will provide encouragement and inspiration to those currently, or in the future, looking west for their exploration.
