About This Special Issue
The special issue of the Earth Sciences and Energy multidisciplinary sectors has played and continue to play key roles in the development and sustenance of the earth’s physical constitution and its atmosphere. This cuts across fields of study such as, Geology, Petroleum Geology, Geophysics and Geodesy, Geochemistry, Petrology and Renewable Energy, just to mention a few. With the growing trends in technology to explore these disciplines, it is imperative that researchers around the world keep abreast with current trends. This Special Issue serves to provide a platform and give opportunity to researchers of the earth sciences and renewable energy to contribute their knowledge and, thereby, bridging the gap in knowledge in these fields of study. We welcome original research papers in the aforementioned areas.
Aims and Scope:
  1. Petroleum Geology
  2. Renewable Energy and Clean Power
  3. Geology
  4. Petrology
  5. Geodesy and Geophysics
  6. Sedimentary Theory and Application

    Abstract: Basin modelling is an essential research tool that aids geologists improve the description and analysis of subsurface activity. The central region of the Andaman Sea back arc basin is a potential oil and gas prospect. Herein, two-dimension present-day maturity models are constructed from four seismic sections of the study area using Basin Mod soft... Show More
