Description

WRITTEN BY THE NORWEGIAN OFFSHORE DIRECTORATE

Name Named by Deegan and Scull (1977) who gave it "sub-unit" status.

Well type section UK well 211/29-3 (Shell) from 2950.5 m to 2993 m, coord N 61°08'06", E 01°43'36.5", (Fig 3.10).

Well reference section Norwegian well 33/9-1 (Mobil) from 2801 m to 2838 m, coord N 61°15'07.5", E 01°50'25.8" (Fig 3.11).

Thickness 42.5 m in the type well and 37 m in the reference well.

Lithology In the type well it consists of a uniform development of dark grey to reddish-grey, soft non-calcareous claystone and shale, which may be in part slightly carbonaceous.

Boundaries The formation is normally represented on both gamma ray and sonic logs by smooth linear almost constant readings, reflecting the lithological uniformity. The upper and lower contacts are identified where this log character changes.

Distribution Although the log character changes slightly away from the type section, the fo

Tops and cored lengths are the Directorate's, per wellbore and unit; the percentiles are computed from those tops and are depths along the wellbore, not true vertical depth.
