Abstract

The fault and fracture pattem in the Thisted Dorne has been established from stereoscopic aerial photographs covering the entire dorne and from investigations of chalk quarries and natural outcrops in the area in terms of establishing the fracture pattem and characteristics of the entire area. Quantitative data, such as orientation (strike/dip) of fractures and fracture density information (line samples) from the area are presented in this report.

The research is part of the JOULE EU research project: Equivalent volume modelling of dual porosity dual permeability hydrocarbon reservoirs. The objective of the research is to develop techniques for optimising the production from fractured dual porosity, dual permeability hydrocarbon reservoirs. This research is a contribution to the geological fracture characterisation.
