Geology of Greenland Survey Bulletin, 189, 24-33. https://doi.org/10.34194/ggub.v189.5150 _______________ The summer of 2000 was exciting for everyone interested in the petroleum geology and exploration of West Greenland. The first offshore well in more than 20 years was drilled by the Statoil group in the Fylla licence area, and seismic acquisition activity offshore West Greenland was more intense than previous years with four new surveys being carried out (Fig. 1). Expectations were high when drilling of the Qulleq-1 well was initiated in July 2000, not only with the licensees and the authorities, but also with the public. The well was classified as highly confidential, but nevertheless all information available was closely followed by the press, especially in Greenland and Denmark, but also internationally (see Ghexis 2000). Disappointment was equally high when the press release in September 2000 reported that the well was dry. Since that time much technical work has been carried out by Statoil and its consultants (Pegrum et al. 2001) and by the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS), and a more balanced view of the positive and negative surprises from the well can now be presented.

Geology of Greenland Survey Bulletin, 186, 73-77. https://doi.org/10.34194/ggub.v186.5218 _______________ The acquisition of public airborne geophysical data from Greenland that commenced in 1992 continued in 1999 with project Aeromag 1999, an aeromagnetic survey of part of southern West Greenland. This paper presents results of the aeromagnetic survey and discusses the correlation of the measured data with the previously mapped surface geology. The project was financed by the Government of Greenland and managed by the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland. Sander Geophysics Ltd., Ottawa, Canada, was selected in April 1999 as the contractor for the project through a European Union opentender procedure.

R., Skaarup, N., & Sønderholm, M. (1999). Petroleum geological activities in West Greenland in 1998. Geology of Greenland Survey Bulletin, 183, 46-56. https://doi.org/10.34194/ggub.v183.5204 _______________ In the last few years there has been renewed interest for petroleum exploration in West Greenland and licences have been granted to two groups of companies: the Fylla licence operated by Statoil was awarded late in 1996; the Sisimiut-West licence operated by Phillips Petroleum was awarded in the summer of 1998 (Fig. 1). The first offshore well for more than 20 years will be drilled in the year 2000 on one of the very spectacular structures within the Fylla area. To stimulate further petroleum exploration around Greenland – and in particular in West Greenland – a new licensing policy has been adopted. In July 1998, the administration of mineral and petroleum resources was transferred from the Danish Ministry of Environment and Energy to the Bureau of Minerals and Petroleum under the Government of Greenland in Nuuk. Shortly after this, the Greenlandic and Danish governments decided to develop a new exploration strategy. A working group consisting of members from the authorities (including the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland – GEUS) made recommendations on the best ways to stimulate exploration in the various regions on- and offshore Greenland. The strategy work included discussions with seismic companies because it was considered important that industry acquires additional seismic data in the seasons 1999 and 2000.

Geology of Greenland Survey Bulletin, 183, 39-45. https://doi.org/10.34194/ggub.v183.5203 _______________ The Upernavik 98 project is a one-year project aimed at the acquisition of information on mineral occurrences and potential in North-West Greenland between Upernavik and Kap Seddon, i.e. from 72°30′ to 75°30′N (Fig. 1A). A similar project, Karrat 97, was carried out in 1997 in the Uummannaq region 70°30′–72°30′N (Steenfelt et al. 1998a). Both are joint projects between the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) and the Bureau of Minerals and Petroleum (BMP), Government of Greenland, and wholly funded by the latter. The main purpose of the projects is to attract the interest of the mining industry. The field work comprised systematic drainage sampling, reconnaissance mineral exploration and spectroradiometric measurements of rock surfaces.

Geology of Greenland Survey Bulletin, 189, 7-10. https://doi.org/10.34194/ggub.v189.5148 _______________ The year 2000 was unusual in that it lacked major field activity directly involved with the systematic geological mapping of Greenland. However, field activities were again many and varied, including a successful highresolution seismic survey offshore central West Greenland, and a joint Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) – Danish Lithosphere Centre (DLC) project centred on Kangerlussuaq in southern East Greenland. Of the Survey’s 354 personnel, 93 were allocated to Greenland-related activities (Table 1). The Greenland level of activity in 2000, both in Copenhagen and in the field, thus compared favourably with that of 1999.

Geology of Greenland Survey Bulletin, 181, 1-5. https://doi.org/10.34194/ggub.v181.5107 _______________ Between 1988 and 1992 the Geological Survey of Greenland (GGU) launched a number of expeditions to the Disko Bugt region in central West Greenland (Fig. 1), the ‘Disko Bugt Project’ (Kalsbeek 1989, 1990; Kalsbeek & Christiansen 1992; Christiansen 1993). The aim of this project was threefold. Firstly, it was important to enhance the general geological knowledge of the region, especially the eastern (Precambrian) parts being rather poorly known. Secondly, reconnaissance studies by Kryolitselskabet Øresund A/S in the 1970s and early 1980s and follow up investigations by GGU had revealed mineral showings with Cu, Zn, Au and Ag, which required further investigation. The third major aim of the Project was to obtain more information on the development of the onshore part of the late Phanerozoic West Greenland Basin, which is particularly relevant to the hydrocarbon potential of the basin. This volume reports on the Precambrian geology of the region.

Geology of Greenland Survey Bulletin, 189, 34-40. https://doi.org/10.34194/ggub.v189.5195 _______________ A high-resolution multichannel seismic survey (project NuussuaqSeis 2000) was carried out from 18 July to 2 August 2000 in the offshore part of the Nuussuaq Basin, central West Greenland using the Danish research vessel R/V Dana with seismic equipment from the Geological Institute, Aarhus University, Denmark. Funding for the project was provided by the Danish Energy Research Programme, the Bureau of Minerals and Petroleum, Nuuk, Greenland, the Geological Institute of Aarhus University and the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS). After completion of the NuussuaqSeis 2000 project, R/V Dana was used for a three-day coring project in Disko Bugt (see Kuijpers et al. 2001, this volume) before the ship returned to Denmark.

Geology of Greenland Survey Bulletin, 191, 83-86. https://doi.org/10.34194/ggub.v191.5133 _______________ Greenland petroleum geological activities at the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) during 2001 were focused mainly on the preparation of the 2002 licensing round offshore West Greenland. Promotion of the exploration opportunities in the licensing round area between 63° and 68°N has played an important role together with launching of new seismic and geological projects. Critical evaluation of the results from the Qulleq-1 well drilled in 2000 has continued in this context.

Geology of Greenland Survey Bulletin, 191, 97-102. https://doi.org/10.34194/ggub.v191.5135 _______________ The Palaeogene volcanic province of central West Greenland extends for 550 km from north to south and 200 km from east to west (Henderson 1973; Henderson et al. 1981; Whittaker 1996). In a preliminary interpretation of the area offshore Disko and Nuussuaq, based on older seismic data, Whittaker (1996) described a number of large rotated fault blocks containing structural closures at top volcanic level that could indicate leads capable of trapping hydrocarbons. This work, combined with the discovery of oil in the basalts onshore, led the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) to acquire 1960 km of multi-channel 2D seismic data in the area between 68°N and 71°N in 1995 (Fig. 1). These seismic data are the primary data source for the interpretation presented in this paper.

The commercialization of meclia in China has cultivated a new journalism business model characterized with scandalization, sensationalization, exaggeration, oversimplification, highly opinionated news stories, one-sidedly reporting, fabrication and hate reporting, which have clone more harm than good to the public affairs. Today the Chinese journalists are more prey to the manipu/ation of the emotions of the audiences than being a faithful messenger for the public. Une/er such a media environment, in case of news events, particularly, during crisis, it is not the media being scared by the government. but the media itself is scaring the government into silence. The Chinese news media have grown so negative and so cynica/ that it has produced growing popular clistrust of the government and the government officials. Entering a freer but fearful commercially mediated society, the Chinese government is totally tmprepared in engaging the Chinese press effectively and has lost its ability for setting public agenda and shaping public opinions.
