In order to further develop Merlin’s capability in wind energy subsurface support, Merlin’s Geoscientist Georgina Lockham, and Senior Geophysicist Eleanor Oldham have recently attended a course and conference dedicated to this net zero energy solution. Continue reading to learn more.
As part of our very busy conference season Helen Bone attended the 11th GSL Geothermal Symposium last week where a wide range of issues were discussed from data and the subsurface, to infrastructure and policy. Read her latest blog post to learn more about the conference and her thoughts on geothermal energy for the future.
Bill Wilks and Helen Bone have recently returned from Africa Oil Week. The show offered a great opportunity to network and to engage with the burning issues that frame the entire energy discussion across the continent. Continue reading to find out more.
Bill Wilks and Helen Bone are attending Africa Oil Week and are looking forward to being part of the discussion on Africa's energy mix, including both traditional oil and gas and low carbon solutions. Continue reading to find out more.
Eleanor Oldham attended the Geological Society’s 3rd CCS Symposium last week. Continue reading to see what take-homes Eleanor took from the conference and learn how CCS is developing worldwide.
Bill Wilks and Helen Bone will be heading over to Cape Town for Africa Oil Week, taking place on 7th to 10th October, which brings together the global community of African energy stakeholders. Continue reading to find out more.

Eleanor Oldham will be presenting 'Efficient Storage Complex Characterisation and 4D Monitoring Feasibility using Rock Physics' at the third Energy Group CCS symposium.
In late June, our Principal Geologist Phil Copestake was lucky enough to join the post IAS (International Association of Sedimentologists) 2024 conference field trip to the isles of Skye and Raasay. The main emphasis of the trip was on the depositional environments of the Lower and Middle Jurassic succession, but also the relevance in the wider context of correlation to the North Sea and Mid Norway. Continue reading to learn more about the fascinating geology of the Scottish highlands and see some beautiful pictures of the landscape and, of course, the rocks.
Merlin were pleased to attend the Asia Pacific Conference organised by the Geoscience Energy Society of Great Britain (GESGB) and South East Asia Petroleum Exploration Society (SEAPEX). Read Ben and Eleanor's thoughts about the conference in our latest blog post.
A couple of weeks ago, Bill Wilks attended DEVEX 2024 and was lucky enough to join the conference field trip to the southern coast of the Moray Firth, NW of Aberdeen. Continue reading to read the full article and learn more about the outcrops of fluviatile and aeolian dune sands between Covesea and Burghead, which show sedimentary and tectonic deformation.
The GESGB and SEAPEX Asia Pacific conference is taking place on Tuesday 18th to Wednesday 19th June at the Kia Oval, London. Our Chartered Geologist, Helen Bone, and Reservoir Engineer, Ben Adillah, will be attending.
