    N253: Geoscience for the Oil Industry: the Jurassic

    Competence Level: N253: Geoscience for the Oil 3 Days Awareness Industry: The Jurassic Coast Petroleum System (Dorset, UK) Field Course Instructor(s): TBA Classroom Elements Low Physical Demand 3D Outcrop Imagery Summary The course is a predominantly field-based introduction to the oil and gas industry using the world famous Jurassic Coast Petroleum System in Southern England for illustration. It is intended as an introduction to petroleum geoscience and the basics of petroleum exploration and exploitation for individuals who have limited technical knowledge of these subjects. Learning Outcomes Participants will learn to: 1. Describe the fundamental principles of geology including geological time, plate tectonics, stratigraphy, palaeontology and rock composition. 2. Review the process of sedimentary basin formation and filling from erosion to deposition. 3. Discuss petroleum systems analysis including the concepts of source, migration, reservoir, trap and sealing. 4. Recognise different types of reservoir rocks and their properties, including porosity and permeability. Duration and Training Method A three day field class with an 90:10 split of field to classroom based activities. The teaching method is a combination of field work, practical demonstrations, exercises and classroom lectures based upon the geology of the Jurassic Coast, Dorset. This course will also make use of Digital Outcrop Imagery (DOI). The fieldwork component will focus on the petroleum system of the Wytch Farm oilfield. Physical Demand The physical demands for this class are LOW according to the Nautilus Training Alliance field course grading system. The sections are almost entirely coastal foreshore and cliff sections. Walking distances are short, up to 2 km (1.5 miles), along beaches and cliff top paths, and ascents minimal.

    25819-Sladers-Yard-Earth-Frances

    FOREWORD Seeing the new work of Frances Hatch made me think about Philip Marsden’s fine phrase ‘the transmutation of the soil beneath our feet’. These are works that are unplanned, speculative, dependent on accommodating raw materials. But they are also forensic and specific. Frances thinks through walking (as well as through informed loitering). She draws or marks her paper with a literal, as well as a liminal, connection to place. Her mark making may be hasty and the traces of her found materials may be rough, but there is always a deep and consoling consideration of terrain at work in their composition. She is a visual geographer. What resides in the paintings - whether they are fragmentary, eroded or swooping of scale – is the touch of the land, the coursing of nature. This is a haptic visual art. If we saw the work in cross section, it would be as the cartographer had been at work. Each piece is less painted than laid down, sedimentary, subject to microcosmic erosions. The paper or ceramic base cannot lie flat. No beach, field or mountain lies flat. No traverse is without some undulation. Frances Hatch brings these paintings out of the ground. They are akin to the natural world. These new works take us from Dorset to the Highlands of Scotland, to Celtic fringes, to the edges of the land and their bruising or lyrical encounter with the sea; to deeply hidden tracks, to the few wild places left. Here, she will embark on work with an implicit faith that the land will provide her with all of the raw material she needs to start her sketch or drawing.

    Climbing Peak Hill — Laura JW 04/07/2020, 2154 Climbing Peak Hill Jonathon Cauchois November 9, 2018 One thing I do love about Devon is the beautiful coastal walks. The South West Coast path offers breathtaking views of Devon and Dorset. One of my favourite walks is along the Jurassic Coast from Exmouth to Sidmouth. Iʼve walked the coast path in places from Exmouth to Sidmouth, Branscombe to Beer and Beer to Seaton. On a cold and windy Wednesday in November, I decided to take the dog out for a walk along the coast path from Otterton to Peak hill, Sidmouth. One of my favourite walks of the coast path, due to the stunning views across the bay, and how high up you can reach on the walk! https://discoveringDevon.com/adventures-in-nature/peak%20hill Page 1 of 11 Climbing Peak Hill — Laura JW 04/07/2020, 2154 I started the walk in the quiet village of Otterton. Thereʼs something about Otterton that I love, its a charming little village that has a mill (Otterton Mill) beside the River Otter. It is also the gateway to Ladram Bay, a popular holiday park, which the coast path passes through. https://discoveringDevon.com/adventures-in-nature/peak%20hill Page 2 of 11 Climbing Peak Hill — Laura JW 04/07/2020, 2154 I walked up from Otterton School where I parked, towards the public footpaths that lead to Ladram Bay.

  • Ask the Experts

    Ask the Experts

    Ask the Experts Dr Anjana K. Ford answers questions on the Jurassic Coast 1. What is the Jurassic coast and why is it called this? The Dorset and East Devon Coast World Heritage Site which is more popularly known as the ‘Jurassic Coast’ is England’s first and only natural geological World Heritage Site. The Site is a 95 mile stretch of the south coast from Exmouth in East Devon to Studland in Dorset. The name “Jurassic Coast” comes from the best known of the geological periods found within it, but in fact the Site includes rocks from the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous periods. The different rocks tell a fascinating story from ancient deserts to tropical seas throughout the Mesozoic era, between 250 million and 65 million years ago. 2. What is so special about the Jurassic Coast – why is it worthy of World heritage site status? The Jurassic Coast is the only place on Earth where 185 million years of the Earth’s history are sequentially exposed in dramatic cliffs, secluded coves, coastal stacks and barrier beaches. The ‘tilt’ of the rocks creates a unique ‘walk through time’ from 250 million to 65 million years ago, through the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous periods as you walk eastwards along the Site. It was awarded World Heritage Site status in December 2001 by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation) because of its outstanding Earth Science interest. 3. What makes a World Heritage Site (what are the criteria)? UNESCO (United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organisation) is responsible for managing the World Heritage Programme.

    The Quaternary Rivers of the Jurassic Coast Region: from the Neogene to the Anthropocene

    1 The Quaternary Rivers of the Jurassic Coast Region: from the Neogene to the Anthropocene A. G. Browna, L. S. Basellb, P. S. Tomsc a Geography & Environment, University of Southampton, Southampton SO17 1BJ, UK b Archaeology & Palaeoecology, School of Natural and Built Environment, Queens University, Belfast BT7 1NN, UK c Luminescence dating laboratory, School of Natural and Social Sciences, University of Gloucestershire, Swindon Road, Cheltenham GL50 4AZ UK Abstract The Jurassic Coast World Heritage Sites (JCWHS) is not only a 95 km long coastline and remarkable Mesozoic geological section, but also a slice through a Quaternary landscape. For the majority of the last two million years this landscape lay in the periglacial zone, just south of a waxing and waning ice margin and just north of an Atlantic inlet which eventually became the English Channel. This paper reviews how the previous landscape inherited from the Cenozoic, was modified through uplift, climatically driven fluvial activity and periglaciation. Much evidence of this Quaternary history can be been today in sections along the JCWHS coast which is cuts through a number of headwater valleys the largest of which are the Exe and Axe. Recent studies, largely funded from the Aggregate Levy Tax, have produced the first independent chronologies for the Exe and Axe valleys and a model of how periglaciation interacted with the layer-cake stratigraphy of the Mesozoic bedrocks of the JCWHS. The Quaternary history of the JCWHS is also preserved in raised beaches on the Isle of Portland, coastal landforms, and in Holocene alluvial sediments associated with human activity and which may constitute part of the putative Anthropocene.

    Essential Information for Participants. We Are Pleased to Be Holding The

    Essential information for Participants. We are pleased to be holding the Jurassic Coast 100 across areas of West Dorset and East Devon managed by the National Trust. As the UK’s largest conservation charity, the National Trust looks after over 257,000 hectares (635,000 acres) of Britain’s natural environment, ensuring that we’ll always have beautiful, wild and inspiring places like West Dorset and East Devon where events like the Jurassic Coast 100 can happen. We hope you enjoy this special place and help us look after it while we’re there. To find out ways you can support the National Trust keep these special for everyone, visit www.nationaltrust.org.uk. 100 Mile Route Description 0-14km: Studland Beach to Durlston Country Park. The Jurassic Coast 100 mile event starts at the South West Coast Path start/finish marker, the route is well-marked and navigation is fairly straightforward; we will have additional light up markers during the night. Say goodbye to Poole and Bournemouth as you head south along Studland Beach, part of which is a naturist beach, the dramatic sight of Old Harry Rocks comes into view; these chalk formations mark the official start of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site. From here you head along a sweeping coast path that drops down into Swanage. Along the seafront you can fill up water bottles at one of the many public water fountains. A little bit of town running and then into the trees at Durlston Country Park, a welcome bit of shade on a sunny day! 14-25km: This is a beautiful but isolated stretch of coast; with Dancing Ledge, Chapman's Pool, and rock features left behind from quarrying to look out for.
