Dmitry Zastrozhnov

Dmitry Zastrozhnov serves as a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Section for Study of Sedimentary Basins at the University of Oslo's Geology Department. His research is centered on the geological evolution of Norwegian continental margins, with particular focus on the Vøring and Møre regions. His work integrates geological and geophysical methodologies to analyze sedimentary basins, tectonic structures, and volcanic sequences along rifted margins.

Dr. Zastrozhnov's research interests span sedimentary basin analysis, tectonics of rifted margins, and petroleum geology systems. His work emphasizes the interplay between volcanic activity and sedimentation processes, particularly in the context of continental breakup and margin formation. He specializes in integrated geological-geophysical studies that combine seismic interpretation, structural analysis, and basin modeling to understand the evolution of complex margin systems.

His publication record demonstrates consistent focus on the geological evolution of the Norwegian Margin, with increasing emphasis on digital compilation methods and high-resolution imaging techniques. Recent work shows progression from fundamental tectonic studies toward practical applications in hydrocarbon exploration, particularly regarding sub-basalt imaging challenges and reservoir characterization in volcanic rifted settings.

Dr. Zastrozhnov maintains active research collaborations across multiple institutions, frequently working with colleagues from the University of Oslo, international research organizations, and industry partners. His work on the Paleogene Basin Development on the Vøring and Møre Margins (PALMAR) project represents a significant ongoing research commitment.
