Available now: Training film series about the Petroleum geology of southern Libya

(November 2007) The film "Geology of southern Libya" summarizes the present geological knowledge of the region and provides modern, state-of-the-art training material to be used in individual or group training. Desert outcrop scenes integrated with subsurface data form the core of the film and are supplemented by 3D satellite flights, conceptual 2D- and 3D-animations and modern analogue facies equivalents. Senior geological experts are interviewed introducing the various key elements in the geological history of the region. A robust knowledge of the main trends in sedimentary facies and tectonic history forms the basis of efficient hydrocarbon exploration in the region. The set of 4 DVDs (total playing time 4h 30 in) is available through the Geological Society of London Online Bookshop. Detailed information and sample clips on the film's webpage...

Going to Morocco on holiday? Then this is for you: Documentary film "Natural Wonders of the Maghreb - An Expedition through Morocco's Earth History"

You may already have visited Morocco: Sunbathing at the phantastic beach of Agadir, seen the funny magicians at the Djemaa el Fna in Marrakech and been shopping in the UNESCO-world heritage-registered souk of Fes. And yet, there is another very attractive side of Morocco that you may have missed: Over the past 600 million years mother nature has installed plenty of natural wonders in the country. Lunar granite landscapes, enchanted gorges, high waterfalls, adventurous caves and 400 million year old fossil grave yards. The film "Natural wonders of the Maghreb" takes you on an expedition through time, illustrating and explaining the various landscapes of Morocco and their geological origin. When we finally arrive back home, you will have discovered a new dimension of this fine Maghrebinian country.

For petroleum geologists : Portrait of the Silurian Hot Shale of Libya

A film featuring the Silurian hydrocarbon source rock of North Africa and Arabia has been released and can now be ordered by sending an email to Sebastian.Luning@gmx.net or in our online shop. The main characteristics of this unit, ecological controlling mechanisms and a predictive depositional model are presented based on animated graphics and video footage from the Ghat outcrop belt in Southwest Libya. Don't miss this film if you are interested in Libyan petroleum geology or black shales.

This is 7C

Seven-continents.com (7C) is a young science production company. Allow us to take you to the seven continents of our planet, on breathtaking journeys through time and space. We will be travelling through spectacular landscapes, pituresque rock formations and vast meteorite craters, to the rhythm of the ever-changing climate and restlessly moving coastlines. The beauty of nature as we see it today is a product of a multi-million year development. We offer to explore this natural history with you, hopefully opening up a new perspective on the various corners of this world.

7C is run by qualified geoscience professionals with a strong research and petroleum background. Video productions include films for the general public (GeoExplorer Series) as well as specialised projects, mainly for the international oil & gas industry (Petroleum Series). Films of the first category may be of interest to e.g. TV stations, national park visitor centres and schools. The petroleum films are suitable as training material for oil & gas exploration staff, integrating typical outcrop scenes with characteristic subsurface data.

7C makes best use of new advances in multimedia and video technology to create affordable, audiovisual documentaries and training courses for the applied geoscience sector.
