The cruise was part of the Centre Excellence(SFF) for Arctic Gas Hydrate, Environment and Climate (CAGE) at UiT – University Norway. It partly supported by Norwegian Petroleum Directory (NPD). had following scientific objectives: Identification gas seepage associated with assumed hydrocarbon reservoirs subcropping sea floor due to erosion overlying cap rocks.Identification related leakage along faults breaching seafloor.Acqusition multibeam, subbottom profiler-, seismic data samples in water...
The CAGE22-6 cruise on-board R/V Helmer Hanssen hosted UiT´s Arctic Marine Geology and Geophysics (GEO-8144 GEO-3144) field course for PhD Master students, was carried out in collaboration with NPD – the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate INTPART project HOTMUD based at Centre Earth Evolution Dynamics (CEED) University of Oslo. also a part UNESCO Training Through Research program (formerly, Floating University) framework this is coded as TTR22. main scientific objectives were to investigate:...
The research cruise was part of the Centre Excellence (SFF) for Arctic Gas Hydrate Environment and Climate (CAGE) at UiT – University Norway. It partly supported by Norwegian Petroleum Directorate. From Tromsø, we visited Sentralbankrenna Hopendjupet in central Barents Sea order to pursue following scientific objectives: Identify gas seepage associated with known assumed sandstone reservoirs sub-cropping sea floor. related leakage along faults geological structures breaching seafloor....
Cruise CAGE21-3 with UiT’s research vessel R/V Helmer Hanssen was carried out to address the following objectives within SEAMSTRESS project (Tectonic stress effects on Arctic methane seepage):1- Recovery of 10 Ocean Bottom Seismometers (OBS) deployed last year north Knipovich Ridge-Molloy Transform Fault corner (see report CAGE20-5).2- Conduction an active source OBS experiment for study shear waves propagation in relation local field and focused fluid flow.3- Acquisition seismic lines...
Processes such as oblique mid ocean ridge spreading, glacial isostatic adjustment and slope instability provide a highly complex spatial temporal record of stress in the Fram Strait. The Vestnesa Ridge is contourite drift bounded by two slow spreading ridges located beside formerly glaciated margin. total state difficult to separate into individual components therefore our focus ascertain whether there transfer from deep crust shallow overlying (~200m) sedimentary cover. We use...
<p>Methane seepage on continental margins derived from shallow gas reserves and hydrate stores is significant globally, with initial observations most commonly pockmark expressions the seafloor. The processes driving fluid flow (liquids gases) through upper (200m) marine sediments not well understood. Pockmarks signify present or past events, are prominent across Vestnesa Ridge. Not all pockmarks active (venting), suggesting that mechanism behind varies ridge. ...
