Deltaic Sedimentation and Stratigraphy of the Late Cretaceous Frontier Formation in the Southeast Bighorn Basin, Wyoming
(2019-05-10)
Regional subsurface mapping of the Cretaceous Frontier Formation indicates that it was deposited as discrete deltaic lobes within the Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway (KWIS). The source of sediment was to the west and ...
Paleoenvironmental interpretation of the Woodford shale with primary focus on water column structure
(2015-05-09)
Twenty-nine Woodford Shale rock samples were acquired from the Wyche-1 core derived from the Wyche Farm Shale Pit, Pontotoc County, Arkoma Basin, Oklahoma. The TOC (total organic carbon) values ranged from 3.47-16.90 wt.%, ...
INTEGRATED INTERPRETATION OF BOREHOLE MICROSEISMIC DATA FROM HYDRAULIC FRACTURING STIMULATION TREATMENTS
(2014-05)
Sequence stratigraphic principles provide means to interpret the geological framework and likelihood of finding hydrocarbon–bearing rocks. In this work, I show that they can also be used to predict and better interpret the ...
A DETAILED ANALYSIS OF RIFT RELATED STRUCTURES: INSIGHTS FROM LASER SCANNED CLAY MODELS AND 3-D SEISMIC INTERPRETATION
(2014-05)
Rifting describes the process of crustal stretching through which the brittle upper crust is subjected to extensional deformation (Falvey, 1974; Bally and Snelson, 1980; Wernicke and Burchfiel, 1982; Steckler, 1985; McKenzie, ...
Heterogeneity of clastic provenance to the Anadarko Basin and implications for paleogeography
(2018)
Thin section petrography and U/Pb detrital zircon geochronology were used to reconstruct Middle-Late Pennsylvanian drainage pathways into the Anadarko Basin, and evaluating the relative proportion of sediment originating ...
HIGH RESOLUTION SEQUENCE STRATIGRAPHY AND SEISMIC STRATIGRAPHY OF THE LEONARDIAN BONE SPRING FORMATION DELAWARE BASIN, SOUTHEAST NEW MEXICO
(2019-08-01)
A high-resolution sequence stratigraphic investigation integrating 3D seismic with petrophysics of the Leonardian Bone Spring Formation, Northern Delaware Basin, New Mexico reveals the sedimentologic process-response ...
