This year marks the beginning of Phase 16 of the Gulf Basin Depositional Synthesis (GBDS) research project. This phase of GBDS’s mission will focus on two broad research themes: the stratigraphic evolution of the Gulf Basin and understanding emerging energies and critical minerals in the Gulf. GBDS will also continue its long-time work of producing and maintaining a detailed, comprehensive, and integrated synthesis of the depositional history of the entire Gulf basin. Founded at the University of… Continue Reading GBDS Kicks Off a New Era of Gulf Exploration at 2026 Annual Meeting
