-//Wil Harpur - a nannopaleontologist - works in a purpose-built biostratigraphic unit on a well west of Shetland. The presence of the fume cupboard shows that it is set-up for palynological processing. These units are normally only used at rigsite for longer-term, multiwell contracts. For "one-off" jobs not involving palynology, biostratigraphers usually work in the Mudlogging Unit or in offices inside the accommodation area.//

The polystyrene cups contain cuttings samples for the biostratigrapher, caught and provided by the Mud Loggers.//
 Some companies have experimented with “acid-free” palynological preparation techniques with varying degrees of success but even this technique requires equipment which cannot be hand-carried to the wellsite and also requires a degree of connection to rig services.
