Outcrop characterization

Modern systems study

Subsurface integrated studies

RESEARCH TOPICS

Funded by a consortium of oil companies since1992, the Clastic Reservoirs Group (CRG) investigates clastic depositional systems, their component architecture and processes, and the ways those elements influence exploration and development in clastic reservoir systems. Research has three principal directions: a well-established program of outcrop characterization, a program in the study of modern analogues and a program in integrated study of complex deltaic and fluvial reservoirs in subsurface data sets. The work presented on this website was done by members of the Bureau of Economic Geology, Clastic Reservoirs Group, including Janok P. Bhattacharya, Shirley P. Dutton, Michael H. Gardner, Christopher D. White, Brian J. Willis, and Lesli J. Wood.
