Via geological-geophysical surveys carried out on the north-east border of Yevlakh-Aghjabedy downfold in the second half of the last century, the oil-gas bearing content of deeply-immersed Mesozoic horizons of Upper Cretaceous, as well as shallow layers of Paleogene and Miocene has been defined. Oil-gas bearing Productive Series have been discovered within Muradkhanly, Zardab, Shykhbaghy and Jafarli structures, which belong to Zardab-Muradkhanly-Jafarli belt. Oil-gas reservoirs are lithologically associated mainly with fractured superfusive and carbonate rocks of Upper Cretaceous, as well as sedimentary-volcanogenic rocks of Middle Eocene and partially terrigenic collectors of Maikop-Chokrak, which are layer-arch type of trap. Some researchers came to the conclusion that within favorable geological circumstances on the north-east border of the downfold, collectors of Mesozoic sediments may contain industrial oil and gas deposits as well. To that end, recently the major capacity of exploration drilling and geoexploration was focused within Yevlakh-Aghjabedy downfold, where Mesozoic structures are widespread alongside with Paleogen-Miocene sediments. Deep structural-tectonic framework and oil-gas bearing content both on south-west and north-east slopes of the downfold was specified via the results of conducted works. It was defined that by hydrocarbon saturation, north-west and south-east slopes sharply differ from each other both in the view of structural-tectonic and oil-gas bearing capacity, probably associated with various cycles of folding of Cenozoic and Mesozoic ages.

South Caspian oil-gas bearing basin is the richest Caspian region for oil and gas production. The great majority of produced fields are located here. Therefore, coastal states consider it the prospective region. Briefly, the paper describes the geographic and tectonic location of South Caspian, as well as the structural-morphological features of Mezo-Cenozoic sediment layers. It is emphasized that ultra-deep South Caspian depression is the major oil-gas forming bolson, both in the paleo-geological evolution process and nowadays. However, there is no single opinion on its role in the formation of oil and gas deposits among the scientists and researchers. Based on the comparative analysis of specialists’ opinion and developed tectonic geographic demarcation maps, deep sections and models as well, it is supposed that coastal, particularly western “land-sea” transition zones may be quite oil-gas forming medium. For greater certainty, the authors offer conducting high-accuracy geophysical surveys.

Comprehensive interpretation of the results for regional seismic operations and reinterpretation of archived seismic data, their correlation with the drilling data of more than 30 deep wells, including Severo-Novoborsk parametric well, made it possible to clarify the structural maps and thickness maps of all seismic facies structures developed in the territory and water area in the junction of the north of Izhma-Pechora depression and Malozemelsko-Kolguevsk monocline of Timan-Pechora oil and gas province. Data obtained were used at basin modeling in TemisFlow software in order to reconstruct the conditions of submersion and transformation of organic substance in potential oil and gas bearing formations. Modeling made it possible to get an idea of ​​the time and conditions for the formation of large zones of possible hydrocarbons accumulation, to establish space-time connections with possible sources of generation, to identify the directions of migration and on the basis of comparison with periods of intense generation, both from directly located within the operation area and outside them (taking into account possible migration), to identify zones of paleoaccumulation of oil and gas. Work performed made it possible to outline promising oil and gas accumulation zones and identify target objects for further exploration within the site with an ambiguous forecast and lack of industrial oil and gas potential.

“MRD” field is an oil and gas field which located in Rembang Zone. One of the hydrocarbon zones in this fieldlies in Ngimbang Formation. Reservoir in this field has a lifespan of Middle Eocene to Early Oligocene. Reservoir of this formation is carbonate rocks and dominated by calcite and dolomite minerals. One of the uniqueness of this kind of reservoir is the pore shape which quite complex. In this study, reservoir characterization which performed on this field is based on elastic properties modelling. Elastic Properties modelling which was conducted in this field can provide an output of the pore shape, aspect ratio, and the fraction of each respective poresforms that exist in this field’s reservoir zone. Therefore the primary data such as petrophysical data, XRD (X-Ray Diffraction), and the data of other reservoir parameters are needed for more accurate resultsobtained with real conditions. The result of this modelling shows that the shape of the pores in the reservoir zone at any depth can be predicted. Distribution of pore shapes that exist in the two wells can be used as a reference for prospective determination of hydrocarbon zones in “MRD” field.

(2000). A new volcanic province: evidence from glacial erratics in western North Greenland. Geology of Greenland Survey Bulletin, 186, 35-41. https://doi.org/10.34194/ggub.v186.5213 _______________ Mapping and regional geological studies in northern Greenland were carried out during the project Kane Basin 1999 (see Dawes et al. 2000, this volume). During ore geological studies in Washington Land by one of us (B.T.), finds of erratics of banded iron formation (BIF) directed special attention to the till, glaciofluvial and fluvial sediments. This led to the discovery that in certain parts of Daugaard-Jensen Land and Washington Land volcanic rocks form a common component of the surficial deposits, with particularly colourful, red porphyries catching the eye. The presence of BIF is interesting but not altogether unexpected since BIF erratics have been reported from southern Hall Land just to the north-east (Kelly & Bennike 1992) and such rocks crop out in the Precambrian shield of North-West Greenland to the south (Fig. 1; Dawes 1991). On the other hand, the presence of volcanic erratics was unexpected and stimulated the work reported on here.

Early in 1963 much of the land occupied by the Roman building at Fishbourne was purchased by Mr. I. D. Margary, M.A., F.S.A., and was given to the Sussex Archaeological Trust. The Fishbourne Committee of the trust was set up to administer the future of the site. The third season's excavation, carried out at the desire of this committee, was again organized by the Chichester Civic Society.1 About fifty volunteers a day were employed from 24th July to 3rd September. Excavation concentrated upon three main areas; the orchard south of the east wing excavated in 1962, the west end of the north wing, and the west wing. In addition, trial trenches were dug at the north-east and north-west extremities of the building and in the area to the north of the north wing. The work of supervision was carried out by Miss F. Pierce, M.A., Mr. B. Morley, Mr. A. B. Norton, B.A., and Mr. J. P. Wild, B.A. Photography was organized by Mr. D. B. Baker and Mrs. F. A. Cunliffe took charge of the pottery and finds.


In this paper the author investigates the periodical variations of the winds, rain and temperature, corresponding to the conditions of the moon’s declination, in a manner similar to that he has already followed in the case of the barometrical variations, on a period of years extending from 1815 to 1832 inclusive. In each case he gives tables of the average quantities for each week, at the middle of which the moon is in the equator, or else has either attained its maximum north or south declination. He thus finds that a north-east wind is most promoted by the constant solar influence which causes it, when the moon is about the equator, going from north to south; that a south-east wind, in like manner, prevails most when the moon is proceeding to acquire a southern declination ; that winds from the south and west blow more when the moon is in her mean degrees of declination, going either way, than with a full north or south declination ; and that a north-west wind, the common summer and fair weather wind of the climate, affects, in like manner, the mean declination, in either direction, in preference to the north or south, and most when the moon is coming north. He finds the average annual depth of rain, falling in the neighbourhood of London, is 25’17 inches.

Ireland is the third largest island in Europe and the twentieth largest island in the world, with an area of 86 576 km2; it has a total population of slightly under 6 million. It lies to the north-west of continental Europe and to the west of Great Britain. The Republic of Ireland covers five-sixths of the island; Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom, is in the north-east. Twenty-six of the 32 counties are in the Republic of Ireland, which has a population of 4.2 million, and its capital is Dublin. The other six counties are in Northern Ireland, which has a population of 1.75 million, and its capital is Belfast. In 1973 both parts of Ireland joined the European Economic Community. This article looks at psychiatry in the Republic of Ireland.
