FrOG Tech has a number of studies and data products available below. We have also made a new product, a global bouguer gravity dataset, available for purchase here. Please contact us with any enquires or to organise a demonstration of any of the studies below.


The OZ (Australian) SEEBASE™ Compilation represents many years of work by FrOG Tech in Australia in the petroleum, mineral and coal sectors. The article "The OZ SEEBASE™ Project: A New View of Australia's Phanerozoic Basins", published in PESA News in 2005, gives some more background to the study.

The result is a model of the geological evolution of the Phanerozoic (and Neoproterozoic) Australian Basins, which is summarised in this GIS and report, and has now been released into the Public Domain. The Proterozoic OZSEEBASE study expands the original study to include the major Neoarchaean and Proterozoic Australian Basins. Both are available free to download.

North Atlantic Mega Regional Study : This study expands on other available FrOG Tech studies in the North Atlantic (East Greenland, Norwegian Sea) to include also the United Kingdom, Ireland and North Sea areas.

The study describes basin evolution of the region from the Caledonian Orogeny to recent and includes seamless grids for basement depth (SEEBASE™), sediment thickness, Moho depth, crustal extension and predicted fluid focus across the margins of the North Atlantic. Like the Norway and Greenland studies, the North Atlantic Mega Regional Study was originally commissioned to FrOG Tech by Norske Shell.

 


FrOG Tech has released three studies in the North Atlantic region covering the Norwegian Sea, Western Barents Sea and Eastern Greenland. All studies are based on FrOG Tech’s “bottom-up” approach for basin evaluation and have been developed from the systematic calibration, integration and interpretation of Norske Shell’s regional data-sets and non-exclusive surveys in the areas, combined with publically available data. The studies were originally commissioned by Norske Shell, but are now available to other companies.

North East Brazilian Margin: This comprehensive study describes the regional evolution of the Atlantic Margin north east of Brazil. The study includes a detailed basement depth model (SEEBASE™) and a structural interpretation showing basin evolution (active faults and basin phases through time) along the margin as a result of the opening of the South and Central Atlantic.

In house plate reconstruction models have been used linking observations from both sides of the Atlantic to understand the evolution of the NE Brazilian margin. Basin summaries are provided for Pará-Maranhão, Foz do Amazonas, Barreirinhas, Ceará, Potiguar, Pernambuco and Sergipe-Alagoas basins, which include discussions on petroleum prospectivity for each of the areas.

The extent of intrabasinal volcanics, potential distribution of source rocks and inferred basement-controlled fluid focus areas have been mapped and documented.


The Philippines Study provides an up-to-date geological interpretation and tectonic synthesis of this complex area in the Pacific. The study forms the basis for future exploration and data acquisition strategies and contains valuable information for petroleum system analysis and to reduce exploration risks.

The study includes detailed plate reconstruction models showing the regional setting of key tectonic events for the Cenozoic. It includes maps of basement terranes, basement composition, faults (and their reactivation kinematics), basement depth (SEEBASE™ model), sediment thickness, Moho depth, crustal extension and basement derived heat flow.

EARS: Egypt Area Regional Study. A new view of the sedimentary basins based on the systematic calibration, integration and interpretation of non-seismic and seismic data across the whole of onshore Egypt, including the Gulf of Suez

Basin-scale studies exist for all major onshore Libyan basins: Sirt, Ghadamis, Murzuq, Cyrenaica and Kufra. In 2009 all FrOG Tech’s basin studies have been combined in our Libya SuperZOOM Study, which includes updated ideas acquired during the 8 years that FrOG Tech has worked in Libya.

The resulting SuperZOOM study provides a unique continuous country-wide geological study which has been interpreted at the scale of an individual basin (1:250,000 interpretation scale rather than ~1:1,000,000 regional scale). The SuperZOOM Study as well as individual basin-scale studies are available for purchase.
