In high seismicity regions, one of the greatest risks to population safety is catastrophic impact earthquakes. Among critical societal infrastructures at risk are school buildings, which house both students and staff. earthquake-prone countries, enhancing preparedness schools address seismic essential. This effort raises two fundamental questions for authorities: (a) what most effective measures create earthquake-resilient schools? (b) How can civil protection agencies contribute achieving...
The Greek part of the Mediterranean Ridge suggests, in terms its hydrocarbon potential, further frontier exploration. geological similarities between prolific portions, within Cyprus and Egyptian Exclusive Economic Zones, indicate possible recoverable natural gas reserves portion. Nevertheless it lacks systematic exploration although direct petroleum indicators occur. Active mud volcanoes on Ridge, still emitting concurrently hydrates, have not been yet assessed even though are strongly...
A. Vafidis, P. Soupios, N. Economou, H. Hamdan, Andronikidis, G Kritikakis, G. Panagopoulos, E. Manoutsoglou, M. Steiakakis, Candansayar and Schafmeister present the processing interpretation of data to show seawater intrusion imaging. Coastal areas are densely populated, since they provide best conditions for both economic development quality life. One most important environmental problems in coastal is salinization ground water. The dynamic hydrogeological balance between freshwater...
Detailed sedimentological analysis in Makrylia cross-section deposits showed at least five coarsening-upward cycles that were developed a shelf environment. The main lithology is sandy silt and the sediments transported as homogenous suspension low energy environment deposited shallow water basin. content of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) tends to increase coarsegrained clasts. Organic carbon (TOC) measurements presence many samples with high TOC suggesting potential hydrocarbon source rocks....
One of the most important environmental problems in coastal areas is salinization ground water. The groundwater contamination due to seawater intrusion usually caused by a violation delicate hydrogeological balance that exists between freshwater and aquifers. development methodology for prediction systematic sea water can contribute planning effective prevention measures areas. geophysical techniques offer suitable non-invasive method determining geometric characteristics an aquifer...
Abstract The focus on exploiting natural gas resources has been increased in the recent years since it was characterized as transitional fuel to a net-zero era. Consequently, reevaluation of under new perspective seems be logical. Within this context, gas-bearing Miocene sediments Messara basin Crete (Greece) are discussed paper. shows have first reported during 1990’s, without being thoroughly evaluated. This paper presents interpretation eight legacy onshore seismic reflection lines, which...
Rock-Eval method was used to analyze 53 samples from late Miocene Metochia Formation of Gavdos Island (south Crete Island) in order characterize the contained organic matter and evaluate its potential as source rock. The were collected Section which consists about 100 m thick marlssapropels alternations. Organic analysis showed that studied succession could be subdivided into two parts. lower one, is generally rich upper poor. In part horizons are characterized by Kerogen type II, III IV,...
The purpose of this paper is to recognize inferred faults in Tympaki basin (Crete island) which cannot be observed on the surface, as area covered by recent deposits. identification crucial for study sea-water intrusion that has been during last years. 3D geological modelling techniques were used reaching aforementioned goal. data include digital elevation model (DEM) area, boundary surface between geologic formations and litho - stratigraphic logs thirty nine (39) wells. Initially a was...
Summary Tympaki basin has been studied in the past years from a hydrogeological point of view. Whatsoever, less are known on subsurface structure plain part terms sediments thicknesses and faults existence. A way identifying in-ferred is integrated use geophysical well-data which finally give an insight within content well-established knowledge geo-logical regime study area. In this paper 3D geological modelling technique described as mean to identify fault structures horizon depths. The...
It is evident that the increased focus on energy transition, will increase demand for gas as it transitional fuel to net zero CO2 emission era. The West Katakolo field only oil and discovery in Western Greece, operated by Energean. three offshore wells have defined both zones, while onshore exploration penetrated biogenic gas-saturated Plio-Pleistocene sands. This study assesses generation potential of local Triassic sources using thermal maturity modelling based available legacy data, with...
For the cement industry minerals gypsum and anhydrite, due to their similar chemical composition, are of same importance. In production line, energy requirements for grinding anhydrite different from that gypsum. Occasionally, difference in mechanical properties extreme members (anhydride / stiff - brittle) can cause problems during procedure. these reasons it is necessary be aware spatial distribution rocks an active open pit. This knowledge, because its strict connection with calculation...
Summary A geophysical survey carried out at Scourta plateau in Central Greece employed the electrical tomography method order to image interface between Alpine and Post-Alpine formations estimate thickness of Terra Rossa deposits. The later are crucial for TITAN-SA cement company open pit mine. This mine provides row materials production. is related with future extension plan existing Loutsa-Remeri an active polje filled a thick deposit which material industry. revealed two distinct layers,...
In this work, we present the results of a geophysical survey at Malia, Crete, Greece. This combines VES, electrical tomography and seismic refraction two sites where equal number water reservoirs is planned to be constructed for needs hybrid power station using wind-hydro pumping renewable energy. The sections are interpreted geological borehole data. determines thickness overburden, defines quality carbonate bedrock, detects faults weathered zones in carbonates. One major very low...
