Volcanic Basin Petroleum Research AS (VBPR) is a research and consulting company based in Oslo, Norway. We have since the start in 1999 specialized in multi-client projects in collaboration with leading service companies and academic institutions.

Our focus is on integrated geological and geophysical interpretation projects and seafloor sampling studies in volcanic basins and margins around the world. Project results are presented in multi-client reports that are offered to the oil and gas industry for identifying petroleum prospects and reducing exploration risks. See Products for more information.

VBPR's main target areas are along the margins of the north Atlantic and Arctic oceans, in particular the Møre and Vøring basins, Barents Sea, East Greenland, Jan Mayen Ridge, and West Greenland. But our work encompasses volcanic basins world-wide, e.g. South Africa, India, Australia, Siberia, Argentina and Brazil. See Publications for a comprehensive listing of results.
