The background for the Geological Survey of Greenland's (GGU's) hydrocarbon-geological activities was briefly outlined in the Report of Activities for 1989 (Stemmerik et al., 1990a). In that report it was intimated that a shift of emphasis in hydrocarbon-geological activities was under way, not only from onshore to offshore but also from East to West Greenland (Fig. 1). 1990 saw this shift take more concrete form. Thus field work in East Greenland was limited to minor projects that focus on diagenesis and reservoir properties of siliciclastic sediments. All other projects onshore East Greenland have reached or are entering into final report stage
