Description

This conversation with Bruce Hart is about fractures and folds in the Cardium Formation due to underlying Kaskapau faults, based on his study titled "Blind thrusts and fault-related folds in the Upper Cretaceous Alberta Group, deep basin, west-central Alberta" by Bruce Hart, Bogdan Varban, Kurt Marfurt, and Guy Plint.How were the faults identified in the Kaskapau?  What is the significance of these to the overlaying Cardium formation?  How extensive would you expect the fracture network to be? How is the Kaskapau actually pronounced (copy Bruce not me).  If you'd like to understand a geological model where open fractures and increased permeability are due to underlying faults, listen in as Bruce Hart shares his research findings.May this exchange serve to expand your geological knowledge on the go.For more information go to www.stoneconsulting.infoCitation: Bruce S.
