No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1974–75 to 1994–95; the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
The source, migration and sedimentary environment of hydrocarbons, exploration, types of traps, extraction. Carbonate sediments and their diagenesis. The environmental impact and control of recent sedimentation.
As printed in the 1978–79 to 1994–95 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original. Later calendars (1995–96 on) aren’t on uwloo.
