2D Geomechanical Model for an Offshore Gas Field in the Bredasdorp Basin, South Africa.

Magister Scientiae - MSc (Earth Science) === This thesis provides a 2D geomechanical model for the K-R field, Bredasdorp Basin and describes the workflow and process to do so. This study has a unique density correction software applied to density data, prior to the estimation of geopressure gradient...
