Sedimentary Basins: Processes and Evolution and Laboratory
A.Y. 2025/2026
Learning objectives
To train geologists able to understand the geological processes that rule the different types of sedimentary basins, framed in a geodynamic scenario. Provide the tools required to apply the study of sedimentary basins in hydrocarbon research.
Expected learning outcomes
Ability to understanding of the processes that control the development of sedimentary basins, improving the competence in interpreting the georesource potential (in terms of hydrocarbons) of sedimentary successions. Knowledge and understanding in the interpretation of the evolution of sedimentary basins and oil potential. Interpretation of seismic profiles and of the thermal history of a sedimentary succession.
