Abstract
As government policy, consumer markets, and global geopolitics rapidly shift, it will be imperative that energy companies, universities, and government organizations have access to research that addresses the subsurface development of energy. A key area of research for the energy transition is related to the precipitation, deposition, and diapirism in salt basins. Traditionally, evaporite stratigraphy and diapirism have been of great interest to the oil and gas industry because of the active petroleum systems and will continue to be valuable, especially from an energy security perspective. Energy security is important for several reasons, as it has significant implications for a...
期刊介绍:
While the 21st-century AAPG Bulletin has undergone some changes since 1917, enlarging to 8 ½ x 11” size to incorporate more material and being published digitally as well as in print, it continues to adhere to the primary purpose of the organization, which is to advance the science of geology especially as it relates to petroleum, natural gas, other subsurface fluids, and mineral resources.
Delivered digitally or in print monthly to each AAPG Member as a part of membership dues, the AAPG Bulletin is one of the most respected, peer-reviewed technical journals in existence, with recent issues containing papers focused on such topics as the Middle East, channel detection, China, permeability, subseismic fault prediction, the U.S., and Africa.
