East Greenland and Mid-Norway

East Greenland forms part of the western margin of the North Atlantic Rift system. Its onshore geology is closely comparable to the geology of offshore Mid-Norway, the northern North Sea and the Faroe-Shetland region. Excellent exposures of Palaeozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic strata provide direct analogues for the adjacent offshore basins within the North Atlantic rift, which contain important hydrocarbon resources and are of increasing importance for CO2 storage in saline aquifers.
