Fault structure of the Punta Montalva Fault using high-resolution DEMs
(2022-07)
The Punta Montalva Fault is an active left-lateral strike-slip fault that slipped during the 2019-2020 Puerto Rico seismic sequence. Not much is known about the structure, segmentation, and spatial extent of the fault as ...
Comparing PP and PS seismic characterization of fractures in the Mississippian Meramec and Osage intervals of the STACK play, Oklahoma
(2022-05)
Fractures often provide a mode of secondary porosity and significantly improve rock permeability and reservoir quality. This study characterized fractures within the Mississippian Meramec and Osage intervals of the STACK ...
Use of benthic foraminifera as environmental indicators in Budd Inlet, Puget Sound
(2022-07)
The pollution of coastal and estuarine environments is of growing concern as it potentially threatens ecosystems, economies, and the public health of people living in these areas. Budd Inlet’s circulation is relatively ...
3D model-based inversion for onshore CO₂ storage in the Osagean and Meramecian strata of STACK play, Anadarko Basin
(2022-12)
Depleted hydrocarbon reservoirs can store some amount of supercritical CO₂ depending on their reservoir properties. An understanding of these properties is therefore imperative for an assessment of the CO₂ storage potential ...
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 ...
Depositional behaviors of trace metals around hydrothermal vents in the Scotia Sea
(2022-12)
Sediment deposition along the East Scotia Ridge (ESR) in the Southern Oceanis dominated by biogenic sediment due to its location within the diatom belt and is
influenced by the Antarctic Circumpolar Current mainly flowing ...
U-Pb and Hf detrital zircon geochronology and provenance of the Missourian Cottage Grove Sandstone, northern Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma
(2022-05)
The Late Pennsylvanian Cottage Grove Sandstone in the northern Anadarko Basin of northwest Oklahoma is characterized as a series of shallow marine shoals that display reservoir heterogeneity largely driven by detrital ...
Qualifying classes of organic compounds within unprocessed produced water using ¹H-NMR analysis
(2022-12)
Produced water (PW) is defined as any ground- or flowback water recovered during the process of petroleum extraction. This water is highly heterogeneous, containing many different organic compounds associated with petroleum ...
Sediment dispersal, reservoir quality, and provenance analysis of the early Missourian Cleveland Sandstone, western Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma
(2022-05)
Distribution of Late Paleozoic strata in the Anadarko basin was driven by a complex interplay between the tectonic activity of several potential source areas, cyclic flooding of the North American Craton due to Gondwanan ...
Mapping Pennsylvanian stratigraphy and elevation of the fresh-saline groundwater interface using geophysical well logs in Carroll County, Ohio
(2022-12)
Carroll County in eastern Ohio overlies the western portion of the Appalachian Basin and is dominated by surface sediments consisting of Pennsylvanian fluvial deposits. These deposits are approximately 30.48 meters (1,000 ...
