10. system of chronological dating that relates geological strata (stratigraphy) to time.

Relative dating Absolote dating

Definition the technique used to know that the technique which tells
which object or item is older in about the exact age of the
comparison to the other one. artifact or the site using the
methods like carbon dating

Method In relative dating techniques like Methods like radiometric

stratigraphy and biostratigraphy dating, carbon dating, and
are used to know which of the trapped electron method are
object is older used.

14. The term sand refers to a specific grain with sizes between (62 µm - 2 mm). The performance
of the sandstone as a reservoir rock is described by its combination of porosity and permeability
depending on the degree to which the sand dominates its. The favorable texture is represent by
packaging of similar sized grains, not a combination of coarse and fine grained composition. The
best sandstone reservoirs are those that are composed mainly of quartz grains of sand size of
nearly equal sizes or silica cement, with minimal fragmented particles. Sandstone reservoirs are
generally 25 meters thick.
16. Geological survey- is the systematic investigation of the geology beneath a given piece of
ground for the purpose of creating a geological map or model. Geological surveying employs
techniques from the traditional walk-over survey, studying outcrops and landforms, to intrusive
methods, such as hand augering and machine-driven boreholes, to the use
of geophysical techniques and remote sensing methods, such as aerial photography and satellite
imagery.

17. Geological mapping - method undertaken on the ground. This involves a visit by a geologist
to look at rock outcrops and to observe the location, orientation and characteristics of the rocks
or sediments exposed at the surface. It may involve vehicle access to a property, taking and
recording measurements and walking across the area. It may also involve gathering small
samples from rock outcrops, soils or streams for chemical analysis. This information can then be
used to prepare a geological map of the exploration area, recording the rock types and structures.

18. remote sensing- is art and science of obtaining information about an object without being in
direct physical contact with the object. It can be used to measure and monitor important
characteristic and human activities on earth. It using electromagnetic spectrum to image the land,
ocean, and atmosphere.

Subsurface mapping
Valuable tool for locating underground
features that may form traps or outline the
boundaries of a possible reservoir.
