A comprehensive geological, geochemical, and petrogenetic study of hotspot-related oceanic basalt-rhyolite series rocks from Ascension Island, South Atlantic Ocean.
(1997)
The mafic rocks (basalt-hawaiite-mugearite-benmoreite) of Ascension Island form four distinct groups: low Zr/Nb hawaiite, high Zr/Nb basalt, intermediate Zr/Nb basalt to benmoreite, and Dark Slope Crater (DSC) hawaiite and ...
Petrology of the Mount Scott Granite.
(1998)
The Mount Scott Granite intruded into the Carlton Rhyolite Group as part of a package of contiguous, consanguineous, and coeval (CCC) granites. Modeling of compositional data suggests the Mount Scott Granite shared a ...
Petroleum wax deposition and production geochemistry: Experimental results and field examples.
(1999)
The present study targets several main aspects of the problem of petroleum wax deposition. The first aspect to be examined is the change in solubility of n-alkane mixtures and wax deposits as related to variability in their ...
Chemical remagnetization caused by burial diagenesis: Testing the hypothesis in the Pennsylvanian Belden Formation, Colorado.
(1997)
The TVRM present in Belden carbonates is pervasive whereas the CRM is widespread but site specific, thus providing an opportunity to magnetically characterize the two components. Specimens with the CRM have higher saturation ...
Structural style of the Wichita and Arbuckle Orogenies, Southern Oklahoma.
(1998)
Structural style shows significant variation along the mountain front. Two types of variation in style are present. The first is an abrupt variation, occurring where a compartmental fault offsets the mountain front and ...
Iterative model-guided post stack seismic imaging and interpretation of halokinetic structures: Ras Banas area, offshore northern Red Sea.
(1998)
Offshore northern Red Sea salt basins are dominated by complex halokinetic features and variable seafloor topography. The resulting severe imaging distortions observed on seismic profiles from these basins mask the salt ...
Lithofacies module methodology for characterizing and modeling clastic hydrocarbon reservoirs.
(1997)
The geological framework and concept used in building the reservoir model determine the distribution of reservoir properties that control fluid flow. Reservoir simulation studies at the Gypsy outcrop site show different ...
Heat flow in Oklahoma.
(1997)
Twenty-seven new heat-generation estimates, along with 22 previously published data, are used to create a heat generation map of Oklahoma. The range of heat production estimates is 1.1-3.5 $\mu$W/m$\sp3, $ with an average ...
Widespread chemical remagnetization: Orogenic fluids or burial diagenesis of clays?
(1998)
The results of this study indicate that widespread or pervasive chemical remanent magnetizations (CRMs) can form as a consequence of the burial diagenetic conversion of smectite to illite. Paleomagnetic, rock magnetic, and ...
Temporal and spatial source rock variations and the consequence on crude oil composition in the Tertiary petroleum system of the Uinta Basin, Utah, United States of America.
(1998)
In this study a number of source rock samples obtained from cores of wells drilled in different parts of the Green River Formation of the Uinta Basin were analyzed in order to characterize the geochemical variations ...
