Architecture of growth basins in a tidally influenced, prodelta to delta-front setting: The Triassic succession of Kvalpynten, East Svalbard
Smyrak-Sikora, Aleksandra; Osmundsen, Per Terje; Braathen, Alvar; Ogata, Kei; Anell, Ingrid Margareta; Mulrooney, Mark Joseph; Zuchuat, Valentin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)World‐class examples of fault‐controlled growth basins with associated syn‐kinematic sedimentary fill are developed in Upper Triassic prodelta to delta‐front deposits exposed at Kvalpynten, SW Edgeøya in East Svalbard. ... -
Fluid flow properties of the Wilhelmøya Subgroup, a potential unconventional CO2 storage unit in central Spitsbergen
Mulrooney, Mark Joseph; Larsen, Leif; Van Stappen, Jeroen; Rismyhr, Bjarte; Senger, Kim; Braathen, Alvar; Olaussen, Snorre; Mørk, Mai Britt Engeness; Ogata, Kei; Cnudde, Veerle (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The Upper Triassic to Middle Jurassic Wilhelmøya Subgroup forms one of the more suitable reservoir units on the Norwegian Arctic archipelago of Svalbard. The target siliciclastic storage unit, which is encountered at approx. ... -
Late Paleozoic supradetachment basin configuration in the southwestern Barents Sea — Intrabasement seismic facies of the Fingerdjupet Subbasin
Gresseth, Julie Linnea Sehested; Braathen, Alvar; Serck, Christopher Sæbø; Faleide, Jan Inge; Osmundsen, Per Terje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021) -
Mesozoic-Cenozoic regional stress field evolution in Svalbard
Maher, Harmon; Senger, Kim; Braathen, Alvar; Mulrooney, Mark Joseph; Smyrak-Sikora, Aleksandra; Osmundsen, Per Terje; Ogata, Kei (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Cooling fracture orientations in diabase sills associated with the Cretaceous High Arctic Large Igneous Province and syn‐sedimentary Triassic faults help constrain a model for Svalbard's (NE Barents Shelf) Mesozoic stress ... -
The Norwegian CCS Research Centre (NCCS): facilitating industry-driven innovation for fast-track CCS deployment
Brunsvold, Amy; Tangen, Grethe; Størset, Sigmund Østtveit; Dawson, James; Braathen, Alvar; Steenstrup-Duch, Anne; Aarlien, Rune; Mølnvik, Mona J. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020) -
Sedimentology and depositional environment of the Kobbe and Steinkobbe formations in the Nordkapp Basin, Sentralbanken High and the Svalis Dome, Barents Sea
Jonassen, Ingvild (Master thesis, 2018)The Mesozoic succession in the Barents Sea was deposited in a relatively shallow epicontinental basin that gradually were infilled during the Triassic by north and north-west progradation of an extensive deltaic system ... -
Seimic analysis of Carboniferous rift basin and Triassic growth-fault basins of Svalbard; analysis of seismic facies patterns with bearing on basin geometry and growth-strata successions
Bjerkvik, Anita Sørstrønen (Master thesis, 2012)This study analyzes 2D seismic sections of extensional growth-fault basins, covering two tectonic realms; (i) Carboniferous rifting in Central Spitsbergen, and (ii) shallow Triassic extensional basins of the SE Svalbard ... -
Steep Fracture Patterns And Their Characteristics Within The Triassic De Geerdalen Formation On Svalbard: An emphasis on regional trends, local variations and lithological controls
Lord, Gareth Steven (Master thesis, 2013)This study documents and discusses the nature of steep fracture orientations, their densities and their relationships to lithological types, which has been observed within the Triassic De Geerdalen Formation on Svalbard. ... -
Supradetachment to rift basin transition recorded in continental to marine deposition; Paleogene Bandar Jissah Basin, NE Oman
Serck, Christopher Sæbø; Braathen, Alvar; Olaussen, Snorre; Osmundsen, Per Terje; Midtkandal, Ivar; van Yperen, Anna Elisabeth; Indrevær, Kjetil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)A transition from supradetachment to rift basin signature is recorded in the ~1,500 m thick succession of continental to shallow marine conglomerates, mixed carbonate‐siliciclastic shallow marine sediments and carbonate ... -
Tidal amplification and along‐strike process variability in a mixed‐energy paralic system prograding onto a low accommodation shelf, Edgeøya, Svalbard
Anell, Ingrid Margareta; Zuchuat, Valentin; Röhnert, A.D.; Smyrak-Sikora, Aleksandra; Buckley, Simon John; Lord, Gareth Steven; Maher, H.; Midtkandal, Ivar; Ogata, Kei; Olaussen, Snorre; Osmundsen, Per Terje; Braathen, Alvar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The study describes the depositional development and sediment partitioning in a prograding paralic Triassic succession. The deposits are associated with the advance of large prism‐scale clinoforms across a shallower platform ... -
You learn as long as you drill; research synthesis from the Longyearbyen CO2 Laboratory, Svalbard, Norway.
Olaussen, Snorre; Senger, Kim; Braathen, Alvar; Grundvåg, Sten-Andreas; Mørk, Atle (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)From 2007 to 2015, eight wells were drilled and fully cored to test the feasibility of storing CO2 emitted from the coal-fueled power plant in Longyearbyen, Svalbard. The drilling campaign identified three water-bearing ...
