Locating unmapped mining voids using high-resoluition seismic and resistivity surveys at a historical mining area in the Tri-State Mining District, Quapaw, Oklahoma
(2021-12)
The Tri-State Mining District in northeast Oklahoma has been heavily undermined, leaving both large and small manmade void spaces that pose a danger to both property and human life. The district is classified as the Tar ...
Hydrological controls on pseudokarst in a permerian sandstone siltstone aquifer
(2021-12)
Pseudokarst formation is a combination of both dissolution and piping processes (collectively referred to as arenization), that both contribute to the removal of subsurface mass along preferential pathways. Much of the ...
Sequence stratigraphic framework and reservoir quality of the Red Fork Sandstone, Clinton-Weatherford channel, Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma: Evaluating horizontal exploration potential in former conventional plays
(2021-05)
The Pennsylvanian Red Fork Sandstone has a long history of conventional oil and gas production in western Oklahoma, particularly in an elongate trend called the Clinton-Weatherford channel. This study focuses on this trend ...
Onset of the neogene-quaternary continental southern Malawi Rift and linkage to the Late Carboniferous-Early Jurassic Shire Rift
(2021-07)
Previous thermal history models have supported Miocene aged rift initiation in northern Malawi Rift without the thermal history of southern Malawi Rift (which is believed to have initiated at a later time) and its interactions ...
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 ...
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 ...
Evaluating macropore flow with temporal electrical resistivity imaging in riparian areas
(2021-05)
Riparian soils are uniquely susceptible to the formation of macropores, voids with preferential flow in comparison to surrounding strata, which are hypothesized to promote fast transport of water through soil layers. ...
Depositional processes and reservoir quality of the lower Permian Wolfcamp Formation in the Delaware Basin, West Texas
(2021-05)
The Delaware Basin, located in southeast New Mexico and west Texas, is the westernmost sub-basin of the Permian Basin. With an estimated 24 billion barrels of recoverable oil, the lower Permian Wolfcamp Formation is one ...
Nature of the Naga Thrust and Fold Belt, Assam Shelf, India: Insights from cross-sectional balancing
(2021-05)
The Naga Thrust and Fold Belt of the Assam Shelf, India, is one of the most prolific onshore hydrocarbon provinces in the world remaining underexplored due to limited conceptualization and testing of structural concepts. ...
Stable isotope investigation of the presence of ocean anoxic event 1d in Mentelle Basin
(2021-06)
Many studies investigating Ocean Anoxic Events (OAEs) used samples from areas that are around lower paleo latitudes typically in the Northern Hemisphere, mostly around the Atlantic Ocean and former Western Interior Seaway. ...
