Our Sedimentological Services

Core Description and Trace Fossil Analysis
Specialists in siliciclastic, carbonate, and evaporite systems, MGPalaeo can provide core descriptions from 1:15 to 1:200 to suit project priorities.

Rock Typing & Grain Size Analysis
Performed on cutting samples to assess lithology, grain size and shape, visual porosity, and more, providing essential reservoir insights.

Borehole Image Log Analysis
Providing high‑resolution, continuous visual records of the borehole wall, allowing far more detailed geological characterisation than conventional wireline curves alone.

Global Experience
MGPalaeo has extensive experience working on projects across the world, delivering powerful, cost‑effective results.
Clastic, Carbonate, and Evaporitic
Global expertise on siliciclastic, carbonate, and evaporitic core samples.
Regional / Field-wide correlations
Individual well evaluations through to large‑scale regional investigations.
Flexible Reporting
Visual slide decks or full written reports, with optional correlation and integration with other datasets.
Integration is Key
Integration with biostratigraphy and other disciplines to improve depositional and stratigraphic understanding.
Case Study: Unlocking Deltaic Complexity in the Bedout Sub-basin, WA
Read how the integration of sedimentology and palynology leads to high-resolution depositional models and tighter stratigraphic control.

Integration with Biostratigraphy
Our key point of difference is being able to integrate sedimentology with biostratigraphy. When combined, these key disciplines can unlock:
- Higher resolution depositional models
- Greater stratigraphic control
- Streamlined project workflows
- Reduced uncertainty and cost in exploration and field programs
Workshops and Core Immersion
Hands-on sessions on either project-specific topics or existing MGPalaeo selected core workshops:
- Half‑day up to full week experiences in the core library.
- Integrated workshops combining sedimentology, ichnology, and palynology.
- Learn facies stacking, depositional systems, and sequence models.
