Discovery of the Arbroath, Montrose and Forties fields initiated intensive exploration of the Tertiary deepmarine
play in the North Sea region. Subsequent discoveries demonstrated the success of this play and the
geological diversity of the depositional systems. The play is now mature and in many areas the remaining
exploration potential is likely to be dominated by small, subtle traps with a major component of stratigraphic
trapping. Economically marginal discoveries need an in-depth understanding of subsurface uncertainty
to mitigate risk with limited appraisal wells. Mature fields require detailed geological understanding in
the search for the remaining oil. This volume focuses on the regional depositional setting of these deepmarine
systems, providing a stratigraphic and palaeogeographical context for exploration, and development
case histories that outline the challenges of producing from these reservoirs. The fields are arranged around
the production life cycle, describing the changing needs of geological models as the flow of static and
dynamic data refines geological understanding and defines the nature of new opportunities as fields mature
