PET 0103 - PETROLEUM GEOLOGY AND GEOPHYSICSMinimum Credits: 3 Maximum Credits: 3 This course delves into the intricate world of petroleum geology and petroleum exploration (geophysics). Throughout the class students will learn about reservoir and source rocks, what caprock is and what role it plays within a sedimentary basin. Aspects of sequence stratigraphy and basin analysis will be broadly discussed. In order to find hydrocarbons underground, and to describe the rocks in which it occurs this class will tackle the wonderful world of geophysics. Using physical properties of the rocks recorded by electronic devices the history of hydrocarbons, and under which conditions it formed, can be understood. Prerequisites: GEOL 0101 and PET 0101. Academic Career: Undergraduate Course Component: Lecture Grade Component: LG/SNC Elective Basis Course Requirements: GEOL 0101 & PET 0101
