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 ...
Bridging the gap: An ecological and morphological analysis on the california margin expanding spore into the infaunal realm
(2023-05)
Benthic foraminifera have been widely used by paleoceanography to assess changes in ocean conditions over geologic time. The distribution, abundance patterns, and morphological characteristics of modern benthic foraminifera ...
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 ...
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 ...
Comparison between model and field diesel mass recovery in dolomite karst
(2018-12)
Analytical subsurface mass removal models are used to evaluate the accuracy and efficiency of remediation approaches. Generally, in field settings, the initial mass of the contaminant source is unknown and thus these ...
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 ...
High Resolution Sequence Stratigraphy and Reservoir Characterization of Mississippian Strata in Central and Eastern Oklahoma
(2019-05)
The "Mississippian Limestone" of the Mid-Continent has a geologically complex arrangement of facies. These complexities span throughout the region and have proven problematic in prediction of subsurface facies variations. ...
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 ...
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, ...
