Join us on the OCRE Geoscience Field Trip
OCRE Geoscience Services have pleasure in herewith inviting you to participate in one of the Field Trips to Italy organised in 2024 for people working in a geoscientific environment such as geothermic, CO2 storage, oil and gas production, nuclear waste storage. The Field Trip focusses on the area of Central Italy where a world-class analogue of a fractured and faulted carbonate reservoir is outcropping: The Majella Mountain (easily accessible from Rome and Pescara). The area has been subject of important international research projects such as the TFM. Examples will be visited of platform to basinal settings, fault zones and fracture systems, oil seepages and asphalt mining.
For whom
This amazingly popular field trip offers an excellent opportunity for additional training to professionals in the modelling of fractured and faulted reservoirs, in a real life, geoscientifically challenging environment, combined with the pleasures of working and living in Italy for a couple of days. It is also extremely suitable as incentive trip or teambuilding session for professonals and management working in the energy sector. Field Trip delegations usually consist of 5-10 participants, representing one or various companies.

The following field trips are currently scheduled for the OCRE 2024 Activity Calendar:
Tue 9 – Sat 13 May 2024
Tue 20 – Sat 24 Jun 2024
Sun 9 – Thu 13 July 2024
“Majella was an excellent field locality to study carbonates and the impact of tectonics on different facies. Hydro previously built much of its carbonate competence here. Great time.”
Improve your professional skills on geoscientific subjects, meet the experts,
build your team and ……….. enjoy Italy!
You will learn about:
Fracture and Fault Systems in tight limestones
Fracture and fault systems in tight limestones along the frontal limb of the regional anticline, fracture patterns in fault zones, early development of fracture patterns and stylolites, the role of articulated folding.
Sequence stratigraphy from platform to slope
Syn-folding fault development in bioclastic carbonates, exercises in fracture analyses, Cutting-edge 3d modelling methodologies from outcrop data to reservoir models.
Hydrocarbon and asphalt occurrences and mining
Hydrocarbon and asphalt occurrences and mining; the role of fracture and fault patterns in migration and trapping, porosity and permeability anisotropy, analyses of geological phases in the development of migration and trapping.
About your guide
The field trips are organised under the guidance of Jan Pieter van Dijk, the Executive Director of OCRE Geoscience Services. Jan Pieter has more than 28 years of professional experience in numerous aspects of geoscience is a world expert in fractured and faulted reservoirs. and has been conducting this field trip for over 15 years.
Jan Pieter was part of TaskForceMajella (TFM) and has written multiple papers and a book about the Majella region.
