Abstract

The 1997 summer season saw continued petroleum geological activities in the Disko–Nuussuaq–Svartenhuk Halvø area, onshore West Greenland. These activities mainly took the form of a geological field project led by the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS), whereas the continued exploration by grønArctic Energy Inc. (grønArctic) in the third year of their licence was kept at a very low level without field work, geophysical surveys or drilling. Furthermore an airborne geophysical survey, Aeromag 1997, covering a large part of the Disko Bugt area, was carried out in the early summer of 1997 with GEUS as project manager (Stemp 1997; Stemp & Thorning 1998, this volume).
