Ben Burton has just completed a ten week internship with us at Merlin Energy Resources. Read our latest blog post to find out more about why Ben (and everyone at Merlin) believes internships for students are so important.
The Bujak Database is an essential resource for all companies evaluating Paleogene reservoirs in the North Sea/West of Shetland areas. It provides improved stratigraphic calibration for both hydrocarbon and energy transition projects.

The second article in our 'Pitfall' series takes a look back at 'Interpretation Pitfalls - The Danger of Believing your data', a blog we posted a few years ago. Bill Wilks, our Principal Geophysicist, explores looking beyond what the data appears to show, how this can help geoscientists think about other potential scenarios, and what positive outcomes can come from thinking outside of the box.
We are starting a new pitfall series where we will be discussing the common difficulties, hazards and drawbacks that can occur during project lifecycles and exploring how to successfully navigate them. In the first article, our reservoir engineer Ben Adillah, takes a look at navigating reservoir model initiation challenges.
Value optimisation is an essential driver of any industry. Merlin offers red flag reports which clearly communicate risks and uncertainties identified against key project metrics.
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.
