Field Trip -  Vaca Muerta from Neuquén to Mendoza: 100 years after Weaver

 

Celebrating 100 years of Charles Weaver first campaign - who gave the name to Vaca Muerta Formation - we will visit the classic outcrops from Zapala to Malargüe. In four days, we will go all over every sequence from the Tithonian to the Valanginian, and travel along 1100 km of the emblematic ‘Ruta 40’.

 

During this field trip we will discuss the analogies with the subsurface and the geological factors that impact on the development of Vaca Muerta. We will provide a thorough analysis to understand why Vaca Muerta has become a symbol of the unconventional reservoirs.
