Lobe3

Research program focused on the sedimentology, stratigraphy, and reservoir quality of deep-water lobes.

[Lobe3 @lobefringe]

Starting early-2018. Combining fieldwork, subsurface data, and numerical modelling; it’ll be epic! Contact @stratleeds, @SedLogic, @seis_matters or Prof Flint (@man_basins) for further details.

It's a wrap folks! The last days we moved from the Ainsa-Jaca to Basque-Cantabrian basins, from proximal to distal deep-water systems, looking at different types of interaction between gravity-flow deposits and seabed topography. Thanks to the Slope5 and Lobe3 team and sponsors!

😯 Big day in @lobefringe-towers! Sponsors update meeting, featuring @deepwater_zobes, @Dostrelith, @Strat_traps, @SedTIMentology, @stratleeds, @SedLogic, @seis_matters, and Prof. Flint! Lots of exciting work to present on submarine lobes and complex slopes! 👊🏾👌🏻

Amazing @lobefringe fieldtrip in the #NeuquenBasin looking at stunning deep-water lobes outcrops of the #LosMolles with a fantastic group of sponsors with so much discussions on #dirtysandstone #lobefringes #syntopostrifttransition and of course #Malbec

[Lobe3 @lobefringe]

And so the Neuqeun basin Lobe3 sponsors workshop comes to a close. Thanks to all the sponsors who made it out. Looking forward to seeing you all in the Karoo next year!

[Lobe3 @lobefringe]

Today we had some overqualified profess(or)ional poster holders. 😂 We also saw some lovely deepwater lobes that make up part of @Naughty_Onlaps PhD.

[Lobe3 @lobefringe]

Putting our sponsors to work logging the lobes of the Los Molles in the Jardinera area of the Neuquen basin. Not a bad spot for lunch either.

[stratleeds @stratleeds]

@rock_jockey @Naughty_Onlaps @lobefringe @TimothyWigan @Strat_traps It is a wonderful section. We are thinking that the angular relationships up the road above the main muddy debrite are related to thrusting at the base of a slide - the dipping beds are tabular and seems to repeat section. Needs detailed logging.

[Zoë Cumberpatch @deepwater_zobes]

Excited to be giving my first lunch and learn to one of our @lobefringe sponsors!

Stay away jetlag!

What an amazing two weeks field assisting for Rachel Healy and Dave Lee in the Karoo. So hot but so worth it. #hybridbeds #frontalpinchout @lobefringe @stratleeds @Strat_traps

[Lobe3 @lobefringe]

LOBES!

[Lobe3 @lobefringe]

@Strat_traps Awesome work; congrats to you and Damjan on all your efforts! We can’t wait to see what you’ve discovered. #VivaLaLobe!!! 👏🏻🙌🏾

[Lobe3 @lobefringe]

.@lobefringe data collection NEVER stops! @Strat_traps and Damjan do battle with super-high 💨 in the Neuquen Basin, 🇦🇷. Well, those deepwater clastics ain’t gonna log themselves! 👊🏼😲

@seis_matters @lobefringe The view of the bird attack from the #stratcopter - more syn-rift (top of hill) to post-rift transition in the background - Catan-Lil depocentre - @Naughty_Onlaps stomping ground.

Some Lower Jurassic ammonite swag* from the Los Molles Fm mudstones.

*N.B. this is not “swag”, as it’s illegal to remove paleotological materials from the province without prior permission. Beautiful nonetheless though! 😍

[Lobe3 @lobefringe]

As @stratleeds and @seis_matters head home, Damjan and @Strat_traps prepare to continue their PhD studies of deepwater rocks in the Neuquen Basin, 🇦🇷. We’d say they have a lovely field area 😍!!! #Lobe3

[Lobe3 @lobefringe]

Under brooding skies, the @lobefringe team get to work on the deepwater rocks of the Neuquen Basin, 🇦🇷. Thanks @sedresq for the logging sheets! 🙌🏻🙌🏾 #Lobe3 #TeamworkMakesTheDreamWork #LotsOfRocks

[Lobe3 @lobefringe]

Turbidite sandstone bed? 🤔 Nope. Giant clastic sill. 😲 You’re welcome. 🔥
