Andrew Green has successfully led a 4-day field trip around the South of the UK, visiting a range of locations that highlight the rich diversity of lithological units the UK has on display.
The group consisted of Drilling Engineers, Operational Geologists and Rock Mechanic specialists, who were particularly interested in seeing first-hand analogue units that they commonly encounter during drilling projects offshore Norway and internationally.
