Chalk studies by EBN

• Identifying and mapping intra-chalk units and unconformities (Van de Voet, 2015)
• Reconstructing halokinetic development of salt structures (Van Winden, 2015) (poster 6)
• 3D reconstruction – predicting chalk prospects in Chalk (van Straaten, 2016) (poster 6)
• Hydrocarbon show database (Heerema, 2016, ongoing)
• Improved Chalk Group facies and velocity modelling based on well log correlation, Dutch North Sea Basin (ongoing, Van Wingerden)
• Seismic geomorphology of the Chalk in the Netherlands (ongoing)
• Chalk Formation evaluation: identifying similarities and differences in Dutch Chalk wells (EBN internal)
