Biography
Brian O’ Reilly is a science graduate of UCD and has a PhD in Geophysics from the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies. He has studied the North Atlantic frontier sedimentary basins since the 1990s, using both geophysical and geological methods. He is a PI in the iCRAG hydrocarbon spoke, with principal linkage to the Geophysics and to 3D Ireland enabling methodologies including its extensive offshore region. His research interests are broad and many are very relevant to hydrocarbon-systems research.
Active iCRAG projects:
- Enhancing crustal and sedimentary structure of North Atlantic rift basins in hyperextended passive margins - Dr Manel Prada
- An integrated study of the Hatton Basin: its role in regional North Atlantic petroleum systems - Laura Berdi
