Strategic Carbon met with geohazard specialists at Shell International Exploration and Production (www.shell.us) in Houston, Texas. An initial discussion and presentation focused on SC’s ability to apply geochemical assessment of mining system platform stability and environmental impacts. A November meeting is planned to further discuss application of the SC approach for geochemical surveys.
SC also met in October with geological and geochemical experts at Anadarko (www.anadarko.com) in Houston, Texas about plans for petroleum exploration off the coast of New Zealand. The primary focus during the conversation was a presentation of SC’s recent lead role in an expedition off the Chatham Rise, New Zealand, and discussion of this data relative to upcoming Anadarko plans. SC provided Anadarko with an introductory field plan for coring off the coast of New Zealand. Further discussions are planned for November and December.
