Critical Evaluation of Middle and Late Pennsylvanian Cyclic Sedimentation and Architecture in the Southern Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma
Jensen, Mark (2016-07-01)Pennsylvanian cyclothems have been studied in detail in the eastern interior of the United States, but few researchers have applied quantitative stratigraphic analysis to test the concept. The Anadarko Basin contains a ... -
Depositional environment and reservoir characteristics of the Medrano Sandstone, Southern Oklahoma Hoxbar Oil Trend (SOHOT)
Ganes, Sean (2020-12)Commercially discovered in 1936, the Medrano Sandstone, is a prolific oil and gas producer in the Cement field and surrounding areas. Deposited during Middle-Pennsylvanian time, it is a member of the Hoxbar group. The ... -
Depositional Processes and Environments in Wolfcampian-leonardian Strata, Southern Midland Basin, Texas
Ward, Zakory (2017-05-01)The Early Permian (Wolfcampian-Leonardian) Wolfcamp interval of the Permian Basin in West Texas is a mixed siliciclastic-carbonate succession that hosts one of the most important unconventional oil and gas plays in the ... -
Depositional setting and controls on porosity development in the Marmaton Granite Wash, southwestern Anadarko Basin, western Oklahoma and Texas Panhandle
Graf, Autumn M. (2023-05)The Middle Pennsylvanian (Desmoinesian) Marmaton Granite Wash is a tight gas sandstone reservoir in western Oklahoma and the Texas Panhandle that can economically produce natural gas, condensate, and natural gas liquids ... -
Determining Structural Influence on Depositional Sequences in Carbonates Using Core-calibrated Wireline Logs: Mississippian, Mid-continent, U.S.A.
Doll, Preston Lee (2015-05-01)Identifying stratigraphic surfaces and correlating depositional packages is problematic in proximal ramp settings where argillaceous carbonates with distinct wireline log signatures are absent due to non-deposition or post ... -
Geochemical Signatures for Redepositional Environments Beneath Oxygen Minimum Zones: The Benguela Upwelling System Offshore Namibia
Cofrancesco, Jessica (2016-12-01)Due to changes in redox environment that occur during the deposition of marine sediments, trace metal paleo-proxies have become powerful tools for reconstructing paleo-depositional environments. While there are numerous ... -
Geologic Characterization of a Saline Reservoir for Carbon Sequestration: The Paluxy Formation, Citronelle Dome, Gulf of Mexico Basin, Alabama
Folaranmi, Ayobami Timothy (2015-05-01)The purpose of this study is to characterize a saline formation that is actively being used to store CO2 as part of the SECARB III Anthropogenic test in Citronelle Field in southwest Alabama. The study is designed to ... -
Geologic characterization of cretaceous sandstone at the Kemper County energy facility, Mississippi: A world-class site for CO2 storage
Urban, Stone (2020-05)With anthropogenic CO2 being of growing concern, the Department of Energy's Carbon Storage Assurance Facility Enterprise (CarbonSAFE) program is designed to explore the possibility of saline storage of CO2 at and around ... -
High Resolution Stratigraphy of Lower Mississippian Strata at Branson North, Missouri
Lopez, Malachi Thomas Ray (Oklahoma State University, 2012-12-01)The primary objectives of this study are to examine the Lower Mississippian rocks at Branson north, Taney County, Missouri, to (i) better understand the Lower Mississippian Subsystem and (ii) determine the sequence boundaries ... -
Isotope chemostratigraphy of the lower Mississippian St. Joe Group in southwestern Missouri and northwestern Arkansas
Stevenson, Beth Eloise (2021-07)The petrography and isotope geochemistry of the St. Joe Group in southwestern Missouri and northwestern Arkansas were analyzed to determine (1) if the positive excursion in the global isotopic curve for delta13C and delta18O ... -
Lithofacies and Chemostratigraphy of the Woodford Shale in the Western Arkoma and Eastern Anadarko Basins, Oklahoma
Reese, Eli Christian (2016-12-01)The purpose of this study was to evaluate the chemo- and lithostratigraphic properties of the Woodford Shale in the Anadarko and Arkoma Basins of Oklahoma. Woodford Shale lithology varies considerably throughout Oklahoma ... -
Mapping Pennsylvanian stratigraphy and elevation of the fresh-saline groundwater interface using geophysical well logs in Carroll County, Ohio
Erichsen, Laura (2022-12)Carroll County in eastern Ohio overlies the western portion of the Appalachian Basin and is dominated by surface sediments consisting of Pennsylvanian fluvial deposits. These deposits are approximately 30.48 meters (1,000 ... -
Petrographic and Petrophysical Characterization of the Woodford Shale Northern Shelf, Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma
Foltz, Kathryne Elizabeth (2015-07-01)This investigation of the Woodford Shale was prompted by observed variations in depositional and diagenetic content across the northern shelf of the Anadarko Basin in Oklahoma. Three cores, two from north-central Oklahoma ... -
Preliminary Analysis of Phosphate Nodules in the Woodford Shale, Late Devonian - Early Mississippian, Southern Oklahoma
Boardman, Darwin Rice, III (Oklahoma State University, 2012-05-01)The Woodford Shale is an organic-rich, siliceous marine shale with cherty beds and phosphate nodules. Phosphate nodules are a well-known feature of the Woodford Shale that deserves further scrutiny to explain their source, ... -
Sediment dispersal, reservoir quality, and provenance analysis of the early Missourian Cleveland Sandstone, western Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma
Weaver, Brandon M. (2022-05)Distribution of Late Paleozoic strata in the Anadarko basin was driven by a complex interplay between the tectonic activity of several potential source areas, cyclic flooding of the North American Craton due to Gondwanan ... -
