    SKM3223

    The given figure is the subsurface cross section for the bore
    holes, A, B and C

    1. Construct the subsurface cross section

    2. List the type of rocks found in this area

    3. Identify the rocks found and put them in difference


    formations

    4. What does the rocks sequence deposited in Period A


    signify?, Explain briefly.

    5. Why are the beds deposited in period A slanted?

    6. Compare the beds deposited in period A and B. What


    explanation can you give for the difference in the rocks
    sequence?

    7. Spot two different locations that have the potential to


    become hydrocarbon traps (use arrows to show the
    locations. Name the locations as X and Y)

    8. Assume land is towards the East and the limestone is


    porous and permeable. Would a rise in sea level make it a
    potential reservoir? Explain briefly

    Due date: 28 Jan 2011
