Analytical modeling of conductivity chemographs of Byrds Mill Spring
(2020-12)
Rhythmic springs occur when a groundwater flowpath that supplies a spring's discharge form a hydraulic siphon. The hydraulic siphon brings the spring varying fluxes of water that cycle over time. If these flows are only ...
Mudstone characterization at a world-class CO2 storage site: Kemper County Energy Facility, Kemper County, Mississippi
(2020-12)
The Cretaceous and Tertiary deposits in Alabama, Mississippi, and the adjacent continental shelf constitutes a widespread succession of sandstone and shale that have proven to be an important target for geologic CO2 storage ...
Biostratigraphically constrained ages of Mississippian mixed carbonate-siliciclastic sequences, STACK play, Anadarko basin, Oklahoma
(2020-05)
The ages of Mississippian stratigraphic intervals within the STACK play of the Anadarko basin remain poorly understood due to the lack of biostratigraphic constraints. Godwin (2018) refined outcrop stratigraphy of Meramecian ...
Rift brittle structure, Precambrian ductile structure, and crustal thickness variation within and around the Cenozoic Malawi Rift
(2020-12)
This study examines the relationship between the regional brittle structure associated with the Cenozoic southern Malawi Rift and the surrounding ductile structure of the Precambrian crystalline basement, as well as the ...
Depositional environment and reservoir characteristics of the Medrano Sandstone, Southern Oklahoma Hoxbar Oil Trend (SOHOT)
(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 ...
Carbonate caprock sealing capabilities: CCUS applications in the Michigan Basin
(2020-12)
Identifying the viability of rock formations to successfully limit the upward migration of carbon dioxide (CO2) is vital for carbon storage permanence. As an attempt to address increasing atmospheric concentrations of CO2, ...
Re-evaluation of the SCO2 and SC seismic reflection datasets, eastern South Carolina: Implications for tectonic evolution and seismicity
(2020-05)
Identification and characterization of the Paleozoic Suwanee basin sedimentary sequence and the associated Pangea supercontinent transcurrent fault are critical in furthering our present understanding of tectonic history ...
Geologic characterization of cretaceous sandstone at the Kemper County energy facility, Mississippi: A world-class site for CO2 storage
(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 ...
Rock physics characterization of potential reservoirs and seals for CO2 storage, offshore Southeastern U.S.
(2020-07)
Geologic carbon sequestration is emerging as a viable method to curb anthropogenic CO2 emissions. With 40% of the United States' total CO2 emissions originating in the Southeast, proximal geologic storage sites are being ...
Analysis of the uranium to organic carbon relationship in the organic-rich Ohio Shale of eastern Kentucky
(2020-12)
Organic-rich shales have become increasingly important to unconventional petroleum reservoirs, and tools such as the gamma-ray have been used to locate them due to the radioactivity of elements such as uranium, potassium, ...
