SAFARI is an on-going research project at CIPR and the University of Bergen supported by a consortium of 23 Oil Companies, the Research Council of Norway and the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate.

The goal of the SAFARI Project is to develop a fully searchable repository of geological outcrop data from clastic sedimentary systems for reservoir modelling, exploration and to improve our understanding of sequence stratigraphy. SAFARI includes data collected by the original SAFARI project in the late 1980s and early 1990s, data collected more recently by the VOG Group at UiB, data from published literature and data from partner organisations. Data within SAFARI are available to Sponsors and Partners. To become a Sponsor or Partner contact John Howell or Simon Buckley

There is also a link to a downloadable copy of the XML standards that have been developed for the project. This area also contains information on how to become a Sponsors or a Partner.
