8:00 AM - 12:00 PM Workshop AM . Atlantic Conjugate Margins Seismic Revelations Workshop
Using recently acquired 3D data, the first part of the workshop will include an Orange Basin to Pelotas Basin seismic correlation to analyze similarities and differences between the two margins and identify the elements which can be used from the discoveries in the Orange Basin to de-risk the frontier Pelotas Basin in southern Brazil. Next, the Equatorial Margins of Brazil and West Africa will be compared using the latest 3D data acquired in Northern Brazil. And lastly, the workshop will move to the North Atlantic where data from the host Newfoundland Province will be shared to identify key elements of the petroleum system in the exploration hot spots.
12:45 PM - 4:00 PM Workshop PM: Core Insights from the Newfoundland and Labrador Offshore: A Hands-On Workshop Led by Local Geoscientists*
This workshop offers a hands-on opportunity to examine core from a range of exploration and producing fields in the Newfoundland and Labrador offshore. The workshop will be facilitated by local subject-matter experts, who will provide practical insights into exploration target reservoirs, reservoir characterization, and geological controls on production. The sessions will be interactive with participants engagement for enhanced learning and knowledge sharing. The workshop will also serve as an introduction to the Canada-Newfoundland and Labrador Offshore Energy Regulator’s (C-NLOER) Core Storage and Research Centre (CSRC).

8:00 AM - 4:30 PM Field Trip: Mistaken Point Fossils
This tour will introduce you to the history of the area, the fossils of the Ediacaran biota, and how Mistaken Point became known world-wide as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You will get a chance to see fossils up close, by walking on the surface of these internationally significant bedding planes filled with thousands of fossils. An official Natural Areas Interpreter will take you on a 45 minute, one-way walk through history to the sloping hills of Mistaken Point. The rolling path winds over the barrens along the coastline. This trail is rated as a moderately difficult hiking trail.
