Field courses on structural geology, salt tectonics, sand intrusions, petroleum and geothermal systems.
We run field-based training courses at instructive natural exposures across Romania and beyond, from salt tectonics and petroleum systems to sand intrusions and geothermal systems. Each course combines spectacular outcrops with hands-on interpretation and can be tailored to a company's technical focus and experience level. Current courses are listed below.
Sand injectites in a hydrocarbon-rich fold and thrust belt: world-class outcrop analogues in the Eastern Carpathians Bend Zone.
View course → 4 daysWorld-class analogue outcrops of a full petroleum system (reservoir, source, seal and trap) in the Eastern Carpathian Bend Zone, one of the world's oldest oil provinces.
View course → 2 daysSalt tectonics of the Eastern Carpathian Bend Zone, from the folded galleries of the Slănic Prahova salt mine to the Mânzălești diapir, one of the largest rock-salt outcrops in Europe.
View course → 5 daysA comprehensive traverse of the salt of the Romanian Carpathians, visiting three salt mines and many salt outcrops along the Eastern and Southern Carpathians.
View course → 2 daysA transect along the Transylvanian Basin, visiting the famous Turda salt mine and many salt outcrops within the basin. We will discuss internal deformation, heterogeneities and implications for energy storage.
View course → 3 daysThe structural and stratigraphic controls on geothermal systems and how they're explored.
