Over the last years the Netherlands has often had to deal with droughts and water shortages during summer. This problem is caused by long periods without rain but with high evaporation rates and is enhanced by groundwater extraction for drinking water. Due to climate change, these droughts are expected to occur more often and become more severe....

To produce accurate 3D fluvial architecture models, it is important to understand the influence of internally generated autogenic controls versus externally generated allogenic controls. When studying a fluvial system, autogenic controls such as river meandering and avulsions generally dominate over 103-104 years. Allogenic controls such as...

Turbidity currents transport land-derived sediment to deep sea where theirdeposits form large geological structures termed submarine fans. Giventheir large areal extent and high sand content, submarine-fan deposits formsignificant hydrocarbon reservoirs. Their internal architecture is often poorlyresolved. With much of the three-dimensional...

Accelerated sea level rise (SLR) is predicted to have multiple adverse impacts on the coastal zone, aggravating phenomena such as coastal erosion on sandy coasts. For climate change adaptation planning and informing policy, morphodynamic changes occurring at coastlines are becoming increasingly important. In this study, a calibrated Delft3D...

Process-based method forward stratigraphic modelling provides advantages in reservoir modelling by simulating the geological process mathematically, and the genesis of geologic formations over time (Michael et al., 2010). In spite of its advantages, Miller et al. (2008) have recognised significant challenges in process-based simulation models,...

Geotechnical projects are successful when there is a lot of knowledge about the soil implemented in safe sustainable solutions. Existing models of hydraulic flow in soils need to be tested and confirmed again and again to make sure it’s trustworthy. With the use of three-layered samples containing 1mm and 3mm glass bead sizes a simplified model...

New reserves are necessary to compensate the oil depletion of the giant fields in the Gulf of Mexico. This work covers a reservoir characterization workflow of Pliocene shallow marine deltaic sandstone deposits located in the south eastern Gulf Mexico. The traditional reservoir characterization workflow is considered a multidisciplinary...

Deltaic reservoirs are important reservoirs for the oil and gas production. Most of the hydrocarbons produced from deltaic reservoirs are obtained from the matrix or primary porosity. Besides primary porosity, secondary porosity, formed after deposition takes place, can have a positive contribution on hydrocarbon production. One of the processes...

Lipus, M.P. (author)
Process-based numerical simulations in river delta modelling have demonstrated the importance of hydraulic and sedimentary forcing mechanisms on delta morphodynamics. Insights of these simulations on deltaic systems have a high potential to improve reservoir predictions in the industry. However, detailed morphological studies are typically...

To assess, and validate the most recent interpretations on the Panther Tongue\rq{}s depositional history we use the conceptual process-response model, 2Dstratsim. The focus of this study is on the Ksp040 parasequence which reflects the wave-dominated shoreface along the southern Wasatch Plateau. The associated Panther Tongue delta to the north...

Deltaic reservoirs are of great significance in both exploration and production of oil & gas and they have aroused increasing interest during the recent years. Coastal engineering deals with sediment transport on a millisecond and micron scale, while geology deals with sequence stratigraphy on a millenary and 10-100 km scale. However, relatively...

The Santo André Lagoon is one of many inlets and lagoons that can be found along the along the Atlantic coast of Portugal. These coastal systems have a large ecological value and are important for rich biodiversity. The Santo André Lagoon is part of a natural reserve that is officially under protection of the country. It has a rich flora and...

Deltares is currently involved with multiple Angolan companies to advice on several coastal projects along the Angolan coast, especially in the Luanda area. Luanda is expanding rapidly trying to keep up with its economic growth as such coastal projects like land reclamation occur often these days. Still there is little understanding of the...

A new approach in coastal maintenance is the application of a large scale nourishment as natural feeder of the coast. The Sand Motor constructed near Kijkduin on the Holland Coast is a pilot project of this new nourishment strategy. The objective of this research is to contribute to a better understanding of the sediment transport processes at...

The Panther Tongue is a fluvio-deltaic parasequence in the lower part of the Star Point Sandstone formation in the Wasatch Plateau, central Utah, deposited during the late Cretaceous period. The sedimentology of the Panther Tongue and adjacent beach ridges parasequence has been extensively described by Hwang & Heller (2002) and Hampson et al. ...

Green's function retrieval by seismic interferometry (SI) exists in a variety of forms. Many of the applications of SI allow the creation of new seismic traces by crosscorrelating a wavefield recorded at two separate locations. The sum of this operation over multiple sources results in the creation of a new signal such that one of the recording...

The hydrocarbon reservoirs that are relatively easy to find and produce are becoming increasingly more scarce. The geographical location and the internal complexity of the majority of the reservoirs that are brought into production necessitate extensive research of all the reservoir characteristics. One element in the array of research tools is...

Barrier islands are important features in the coastal zone, among others because they shelter the mainland from waves and storm surge. Thus, the degradation of barrier islands can pose a threat to coastal safety. Hence, there is a societal demand for understanding and predicting barrier island evolution. High energy events, such as storms and...

This is a numerical modelling study on the impact of dredging and disposal activities on the long-term morphological development of the Columbia River mouth (MCR). Dredging activities removed 120 Mm3 of sand from the MCR during the studied interval between 1958 and 1999. Only one-third of this volume was disposed in the active littoral zone....
