Abstract

In 1976 the first petroleum exploration well was drilled on the shelf off West Greenland. This marked an important stage in the development of petroleum exploration in Greenland folIowing the granting of concessions in April 1975 by the Ministry for Greenland. GGU's Oil and Gas Section was closely involved in the assessment of the drilling programme and in following the operation. Sample material and data were submitted during and after the drilling to the Ministry for Greenland and were studied in the Survey as part of the follow-up procedure. Several members ofthe GGU staff visited the drill ship Pelican during the summer.
