Mapping program 2011 - 2013

• Guarantee the continuity of current programs
• NCP-2, BodDal
• Shift to (other) application areas of actual
  needs/questions and data needs
• Onshore, ultra-deep and shallow
• Upgrading and actualisation of knowledge needed
  for geothermal energy, CCS and unconvential gas
• Emphasis on dynamics (processes, prospectivity
  and forecasting/planning)
• Thematic policy support
• Division/structure of projects on basis of
  disciplines
• Integral program ? adjusting with other teams
  (needs and priorities) !
