Course Description: 

Sequence stratigraphy has arguably revolutionized stratigraphic analysis in the oil and gas industry since the 1970s, but to date, few environmental companies have utilized this power tool. Although many companies have intended on using sequence stratigraphic correlation techniques to define the subsurface heterogeneity, they have mistakenly used lithostratigraphy, significantly limiting their ability to construct accurate conceptual site models (CSMs) and develop effective remedial strategies. This course will leverage case studies to make participants aware of the pitfalls of lithostratigraphy and highlight the role of sequence stratigraphy in generating robust and realistic hydrogeological models.
