Description
WRITTEN BY THE NORWEGIAN OFFSHORE DIRECTORATE
Name Named from the Shetland Islands off the north coast of Scotland (Deegan & Scull 1977). The group has now been expanded to include the formations of the former Chalk Group. Use of the group off mid-Norway corresponds to the informal Flatøy Group (H4).
Type area The group is typically developed in the central and Northern North Sea. A chalk facies is developed in the central North Sea and a siliclastic facies in the Northern North Sea (Fig 5.32ab). A typical section of the chalk facies in the central area is represented by Norwegian well 1/3-1 (Fig 5.24), while Norwegian well 25/1-1 (Fig 5.33), provides a typical section of the siliciclastic facies in the northern area. UK well 22/1-2A illustrates a section in the tr
