Field Study: Determining the Relationship of the Subsurface "Cleveland" Sandstone to the Seminole Formation Outcrops in Southern Oklahoma
(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 ...
Integrated stratigraphic, structural, tectonic, and petroleum systems analysis of the Mississippian Caney Shale, Ardmore Basin, southern Oklahoma
(2021-12)
Burial and thermal history modeling were used to assess the thermal maturity of the Mississippian (Chesterian) Caney Shale in the Ardmore Basin, southern Oklahoma, to determine the formation's viability as an unconventional ...
Removal of oil hydrocarbons from petroleum produced water by indigenous methanogenic oil degrading microbial communities
(2022-12)
Plugging of membrane filters by oil (mostly n-alkanes) constitutes one of the main barriers to treating produced water (PW) for its integration into industrial and agricultural uses. Based on a previous study showing that ...
Seismic multiples attenuating using Radon Transform and principal components
(2022-07)
Seismic data is often contaminated with noise that must be attenuated before making reliable seismic interpretations. Seismic noise can be either random noise, which cannot be correlated between seismograms, or coherent ...
Isotope chemostratigraphy of the lower Mississippian St. Joe Group in southwestern Missouri and northwestern Arkansas
(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 ...
Structural framework analysis in the Mississippi Canyon protraction area, Central Gulf of Mexico: Implications for CO₂ sequestration
(2020-07)
Geologic factors such as faults and salt tectonics have implications for the reliability of CO2-Enhanced Oil Recovery (CO₂-EOR) and CO₂ sequestration targets in deep water reservoirs of the Gulf of Mexico. Salt-tectonic ...
Surface-to-subsurface stratigraphy of the Caney Shale in portions of Pontotoc, Coal, Pittsburg, and Hughes Counties, Oklahoma, Arkoma basin
(2015-05)
The Caney Shale is an organic-rich, dark fissile shale of late Mississippian age with localized phosphate and limestone concretions. The Caney Shale in the Arkoma basin of Oklahoma is stratigraphically equivalent to the ...
IntraCONtinental Sags (ICONS) formation, exhumation and landscape evolution: The Ethiopian testimony
(2019-07)
The study of the Mekele Sedimentary Basin (MSB) in Ethiopia revealed geological and geophysical features that can be interpreted as resembling an ICONS (IntraCONtinental Sag). ICONS are groups of sedimentary basins that ...
