Description
In January 1996 a total of 270 conference participants gathered for 3 days in Trondheim, Norway, to focus on and to discuss the complex
topic of hydrocarbon seals particularly related to deformation zones and to caprocks.
The conference was the first in Norway and
one of the first in Europe to exclusively address this very important subject. The purpose of the conference was to present some of the
most recent research results, to establish state-of-the-art with respect to understanding hydrocarbon seals and to discuss where to go
from here to find some of the keys to successful future exploration and enhanced oil and gas recovery. Out of the presented papers and
posters, 17 are compiled and published in this volume. These provide a good overview of and an introduction to the numerous aspects covered
during the fruitful days in Trondheim.
Audience
For geologists and engineers.

Preface.
Fault Seals.
Fault seal analysis: successful methodologies, application and
future directions (R.J. Knipe et al.). The emplacement of clay smears in synsedimentary normal faults: inferences from field
observations near Frechen, Germany (F.K. Lehner, W.F. Pilaar). Fault seal processes: systematic analysis of fault seals over geological
and production time scales (J.R. Fulljames et al.). Complexity in fault zone structure and implications for fault seal prediction
(C. Childs et al.). Late Jurassic–early Cretaceous caprocks of the southwestern Barents Sea: fracture systems and rock
mechanical properties (R.H. Gabrielsen, O.S. Kløvjan). Fault properties and the development of cemented fault zones in sedimentary
basins: field examples and predictive models (E. Sverdrup, K. Bjørlykke). Quantitative fault seal prediction: a case study from
Oseberg Syd (T. Fristad et al.). Fault seal analysis in hydrocarbon exploration and appraisal: examples from offshore mid-Norway
(A.I. Welbon et al.). Fracture flow and fracture cross flow experiments (A. Makurat et al.). Fault seal analysis: reducing
our dependence on empiricism (T.R. Harper, E.R. Lundin).
Migration and Top Seal Integrity.
Sealing processes and top seal assessment
(G.M. Ingram et al.). The dynamics of gas flow through rock salt in the scope of time (D. Kettel). Pressure prediction from
seismic data: implications for seal distribution and hydrocarbon exploration and exploitation in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico (N.C. Dutta).
Pore water flow and petroleum migration in the Smørbukk field area, offshore mid-Norway (R. Olstad et al.). The Njord
field: a dynamic hydrocarbon trap (T. Lilleng, R. Gundesø). Pre-cretaceous top-seal integrity in the greater Ekofisk area (D.M.
Hall et al.). References index. Subject index.
