A Geophysical Stroll Around The Isle of Portland
A geophysical stroll around the Isle of Portland providing some structural and geological insights to the island.
Offshore Ireland Project at the Atlantic Ireland 2019 Conference
The “Integrated Biostratigraphic & Lithostratigraphic Framework of Offshore Ireland” project, which was awarded by the Petroleum Infrastructure Programme (PIP) to a Merlin led consortium in 2016, is currently in its final write up stage. The project received a high profile at the Atlantic Ireland 2019 Conference held in Dublin in late October, where some of the key results were presented in three conference talks.
Interpretation Pitfalls – The Danger of Believing your Data!
I don’t know about you but one of the most enjoyable and rewarding aspects of working in geoscience for me is actually in getting it wrong! Where would the fun be if things always turned out just as we predicted? The mantra ‘expect the unexpected’ comes to mind when dealing with sub-surface data. The flexible geoscientist recognises the flaws in their data and uses their geological nous to fill in the gaps and to consider what might be, rather than what the data seems to be showing them. This spectacular example illustrates the point and, through a seismic re-processing exercise, happily delivers the ‘big reveal’. Read on..
Have we overlooked the South Celtic Sea Basin?
Does the OGA’s 2016 high-resolution 2D seismic provide the crucial master key in unlocking hidden potential?
Geology without Borders
However you say it, the world’s geology does not see political borders the same way us humans do. Rocks are inherently less territorial! At Merlin, we have increasingly recognised the value in transferring knowledge across political boundaries.

Discovering the Secrets Beneath Britain
Using UKOGL seismic data to produce an improved understanding of the subsurface structure beneath Britain.
Setting New Standards for Irish Stratigraphy
Offshore Ireland has recently become a region of significant hydrocarbon exploration interest, sparked by the Atlantic Margin Licensing Rounds in 2011 and 2015, as a result of which, licences were awarded across the Porcupine, Slyne, Rockall and Goban Spur basins. Merlin have been awarded a project to define a standard stratigraphic nomenclature on behalf of the Government of Ireland.
SPWLA petrophysicists, great geology and sunshine
If you want to see the elements of a working petroleum system in the field, there really is no better place than the UNESCO Dorset Coast. Read about the SPWLA trip organised by Merlin Energy.
