Synopsis:

265 pages, [1] sheet) : illustrations (some colour), maps. 'Significant problems have arisen in the past with dating and correlating stratigraphical sequences impoverished in or barren of fossil remains, leaving major questions in stratigraphy for periods dominated by non­marine formations. These problems are exacerbated in dating and correlating barren sequences encountered in offshore exploration and appraisal drilling where the potential of alternative techniques becomes economically extremely important. Brought together in this volume is a wide range of diverse techniques and disciplines, broadly grouped into mineralogical, chemical, isotopic, luminescence and cyclicity analyses, to explore their potential in solving difficulties in stratigraphy. The intention is also to introduce these techniques, already familiar to specialist researchers, to a wider audience of petroleum geologists who may find them useful in resolving their specific correlation problems. The book will be of particular interest to hydrocarbon exploration and production geologists. '

Synopsis: This is a collection of papers dealing with various non-biostratigraphical methods and techniques for correlating and dating sedimentary sequences. It should be of interest to hydrocarbon exploration and production geologists and stratigraphers.
