ASSESSING MUDROCK CHARACTERISTICS, HIGH-RESOLUTION CHEMOSTRATIGRAPHY, AND SEQUENCE STRATIGRAPHY OF THE WOODFORD SHALE IN THE MCALISTER CEMETERY QUARRY, ARDMORE BASIN, OKLAHOMA
(2017-12-16)The Late Devonian – Early Mississippian Woodford Shale is a significant unconventional play in the Midcontinent region. An approximately 365ft thick exposure of the Woodford Shale is present in the McAlister Cemetery Quarry. ... -
Chemostratigraphy, Mineral Distributions and Water Chemistry Analysis of the Green River Formation, Piceance Basin, Northwestern Colorado
(2021-05)The Eocene Green River Formation (GRF) in the Piceance Basin of Colorado is estimated to contain the largest oil shale deposits in the world and is a well-documented example of a lacustrine depositional system. In addition, ... -
CORE BASED DEPOSITIONAL, CHEMOSTRATIGRAPHIC, AND DIAGENETIC ANALYSIS OF THE UPPER WOLFCAMP, SOUTHERN DELAWARE BASIN, TEXAS
(2019-05-10)The Wolfcamp Series in the Southern Delaware Basin of West Texas is Permian in age and is composed of a mix of siliciclastics and carbonates deposited through pelagic sedimentation, turbidity currents, and mass wasting in ... -
Rapid elemental analysis using X-ray fluorescence and laser induced breakdown spectroscopy and their applications in the Mississippian Meramec, Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma
(2020)X-Ray fluorescence (XRF) and Laser Induced Breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) are rapid elemental analysis techniques for rock cores and cuttings. Elemental analysis is useful in understanding geochemical, mineralogical, ... -
Stratigraphic Variability of Mississippian Meramec Chemofacies and Petrophysical Properties Using Machine Learning and Geostatistical Modeling, STACK Trend, Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma
(2019-12-13)Mississippian deposits and reservoirs in the STACK play (Sooner Trend in the Anadarko [Basin] in Canadian and Kingfisher counties) of central Oklahoma are comprised of silty limestones, calcareous siltstones, argillaceou ... -
UTILIZATION OF CHEMOSTRATIGRAPHIC PROXIES FOR GENERATING AND REFINING SEQUENCE STRATIGRAPHIC FRAMEWORKS IN MUDROCKS AND SHALES
(2016)Recent advances in handheld XRF (HHXRF) technology provide an opportunity to demonstrate the utility of chemostratigraphy within mudrock successions. Three cores from Lincoln, Pottawatomie, and Pontotoc Counties in Oklahoma ...
