Provenance of the Upper Cretaceous Lange-Lysing deep-marine sandstone in the Norwegian Sea: with implication for reservoir quality.
Master's thesis in Petroleum Geosciences Engineering The provenance and reservoir properties of Upper Cretaceous Lange-Lysing sandstone in the Norwegian Sea have been determined by using integrated whole-rock geochemical, petrographic and detrital zircon U-Pb age dating by LA- ICP-MS. Three dif...

Master's thesis in Petroleum Geosciences Engineering The provenance and reservoir properties of Upper Cretaceous Lange-Lysing sandstone in the Norwegian Sea have been determined by using integrated whole-rock geochemical, petrographic and detrital zircon U-Pb age dating by LA- ICP-MS. Three different provenance signatures are revealed within three geographical areas containing the Lange-Lysing succession.
