Report of activities for the 2017 GEM-2 Hudson Bay–Ungava project : stratigraphy, source rock, and RADARSAT-2 research, Nunavut, Manitoba, and Ontario / D. Lavoie ... [et al.].: M183-2/8319E-PDF

“The Arctic is the last area with significant conventional hydrocarbon potential to be explored. The Hudson Bay Basin is one of these under explored sedimentary basins in the Canadian Arctic. As part of the initial phase of the Geoscience for Energy and Minerals (GEM) program, a re-evaluation of historical exploration data and strategic acquisition of new hydrocarbon system data led to the conclusion that most of the key elements for a petroleum system are present in the Hudson Bay Basin, suggesting that its hydrocarbon potential has been under evaluated. The Hudson Bay – Ungava project of the second phase of the GEM program aims to provide new information and models for the evolution of the Hudson Bay Basin which will serve as the cornerstone for a modern appraisal of the hydrocarbon prospectivity of the largest sedimentary basin in Canada. This report presents a summary of all laboratory works carried out in 4 activities currently in progress or phasing out for the energy component of the GEM-2 Hudson-Ungava project; stratigraphy, source and reservoir rocks, hydrographic survey and RADARSAT-2 research”--Project summary, p. 1-2.
