3D model-based inversion for onshore CO₂ storage in the Osagean and Meramecian strata of STACK play, Anadarko Basin
Fakeye, Victor Oluwaseun (2022-12)Depleted hydrocarbon reservoirs can store some amount of supercritical CO₂ depending on their reservoir properties. An understanding of these properties is therefore imperative for an assessment of the CO₂ storage potential ... -
Beneficial Use of Produced Water and Carbon Dioxide in Depleted Oil Reservoirs: In-Situ Microbial Conversion of Crude Oil to Methane
Shabani, Babak (2019-05-01)Produced water from oil and gas reservoirs contains high levels of organic chemicals and heavy metals whose concentrations, in many cases, exceeds USA drinking water standards. To prevent the contamination of underground ... -
Conodont Biostratigraphy in Middle Osagean to Upper Chesterian Strata, North-central Oklahoma, U.S.A.
Hunt, John Edward (2017-12-01)The informally known “Mississippian Limestone” stratigraphic interval in north-central Oklahoma, U.S.A. bears no chronostratigraphic markers and has no formally established biostratigraphic framework to date. Conodonts ... -
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 ... -
Diagenesis of the Arbuckle Group in Northeastern and North-Central Oklahoma, U.S.A.
Bailey, Phillip Anthony, III (2018-12-01)Cambrian-Ordovician age Arbuckle Group carbonates host a wide variety of petroleum, mineral, and freshwater resources in Oklahoma. The studies that have been performed on the Midcontinent have shown the Arbuckle has been ... -
Effects of Paramagnetic Minerals on Pore-Size Distribution in Shale
Obasi, Christian Chijindu (2018-12-01)In porous media, effects of internal gradient caused by magnetic susceptibility contrast between the matrix and infilling fluid shifts transverse relaxation (T2) to shorter time, resulting in imprecise classification of ... -
Exploring Micro X-ray Computed Tomography Coupled with Scanning Electron Microscopy as Tools for Paleozoic Shale Studies
Powers, Michael Ray (2015-12-01)Despite the ubiquity of shale in the rock record, the complex physical, biological, and chemical processes that determine its properties has inhibited our understanding of its origin and reservoir characteristics. The ... -
Field Study: Determining the Relationship of the Subsurface "Cleveland" Sandstone to the Seminole Formation Outcrops in Southern Oklahoma
Battle, Brent Joshua (2017-12-01)The Cleveland sandstone is a fluvial-deltaic, Pennsylvanian Age formation in Oklahoma that produces hydrocarbons in the subsurface and is exposed at the surface in the outcrop trend that extends from Seminole County ... -
Fracture Architecture of the High Plains Aquifer, Northeastern Texas Panhandle:Implications for Geologic Storage of Carbon Dioxide
Meng, Jingyao (2015-12-01)Surface and airborne gas monitoring programs are becoming an important part of environmental protection in areas favorable for subsurface storage of carbon dioxide. Understanding structural architecture and its effects on ... -
Geochemical evaluation of the Mississippian Limestone
Adeboye, Oyeleye Oluwafemi (2020-12)A multi-proxy geochemical investigation of the Mississippian Limestone interval in the STACK resource play area of the Anadarko Shelf was undertaken, in order to evaluate environmental conditions during deposition of ... -
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 Enigmatic Carbonate Masses in the Woodford Shale, Criner Hills Area, Oklahoma
Martin, Danielle P. (2017-05-01)The origin of carbonate masses in the Devonian Woodford Shale in the McAlister Cemetery Quarry in south-central Oklahoma have long been an enigma. Masses range from 24 cm to 1.5 m in diameter and are sub-spherical to oblate ... -
Geologic Framework for the Assessment of Offshore CO2 Storage Resources: West Florida Platform
Charbonneau, Paul Joseph, II (2018-08-01)The West Florida Platform is a broad continental shelf west of peninsular Florida. The platform contains abundant sinks and seals that appear favorable for future commercial storage of CO2. Proven offshore storage technologies, ... -
Geological and geomechanical characteristics of prospective CO₂ sinks and seals in the Desoto Canyon Salt Basin, east-central Gulf of Mexico
Meng, Jingyao (2019-05)Subsurface geologic storage of CO₂ can play a major role in offsetting greenhouse gas emissions, and offshore storage in the DeSoto Canyon Salt Basin in the east-central Gulf of Mexico may be a viable solution due to large ... -
Geological Characterization and CO2 Storage Potential of Cretaceous Sandstone in the Desoto Canyon Salt Basin of the Mafla Shelf
Chandra, Avinash (2018-05-01)The southeastern U.S. constitutes more than 40% of anthropogenic CO2 emissions in the U.S., and most of this is emitted within 50 miles of the coast. Uniform government ownership, high capacity, and favorable source location ... -
Incorporating the interfacial friction angle concept into the PDC single cutter and full bit modeling
Atashnezhad, Amin (2019-12)Over the past century, oil and gas served an important role in the US energy sector. The oil industry continually has worked to reduce the drilling cost by increasing drilling efficiency. Drilling is a time-consuming and ... -
