Application of a novel LCMS method to analyze polar biomarkers of the Woodford Shale, Wyche Farm Shale Pit, Oklahoma
Parks, Derek (2021)This study examined the Wyche Farm-1 core and selected depths of interest for biomarker analysis. Previously employed methods for biomarker characterization were slow and labor-intensive using the gas chromatography mass ... -
A comparison of potentially impact-related diagenesis in impact structures with carbonate targets
Simpson, Emily (2021-05-16)A petrographic and isotopic analysis of the carbonate target rocks at the Jeptha Knob structure, the Serpent Mound impact structure, and the Decaturville impact structure was conducted to better understand potentially ... -
Geochemical Characterization of the Upper Mississippian Goddard Formation, Springer Group, in the Anadarko Basin of Oklahoma
Pearson, Catherine (2016)The Goddard Formation is the basal unit of the Late Mississippian-Early Pennsylvanian Springer Group of Oklahoma. This Formation is part of a stacked oil and condensate play in the South Central Oklahoma Oil Province ... -
AN INTEGRATED ANALYSIS OF SEQUENCE STRATIGRAPHY, PETROLEUM GEOCHEMISTRY, AND DEVONIAN MASS EXTINCTION EVENTS IN THE WOODFORD SHALE, SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA
Jones, Lydia Catherine (2017-12-16)Geochemical analyses of the Late Devonian-Early Mississippian Woodford Shale have revealed a more dynamic history than previously considered, reflecting discrete changes in the conditions surrounding its depositional ... -
Novel Biomarker Distributions in the Chesterian Limestone of the Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma
Wood, Matthew (2017-05)18α(H)-Oleanane is a biomarker that is proposed to be derived from β-amyrin, which is produced by angiosperm plants. As such, the presence of 18α(H)-oleanane is often used as an indicator that the petroleum source is of ... -
THE ORGANIC GEOCHEMICAL VARIABILITY IN DEPOSITIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL PROCESSES WITHIN A STRATIGRAPHIC SEQUENCE OF THE WOODFORD SHALE IN THE ARDMORE BASIN, OKLAHOMA
Putri, Tara (2020-07)The Devonian-Early Mississippian Woodford Shale underlying the subsurface of Carter and Murray Counties in the Ardmore Basin, Oklahoma, USA, has attracted growing interest as an unconventional reservoir. Heterogeneity has ... -
Organic Geochemistry of The Woodford Shale, Cherokee Platform, OK and its Role in a Complex Petroleum System
Villalba, Damian (2016-05-13)The Woodford Shale is probably the most prolific source rock in the Anadarko Basin and Cherokee Platform. During the last decade, it became more important due to its high unconventional hydrocarbon potential. Recent studies ... -
REGIONAL STRATIGRAPHY AND DIAGENETIC CHARACTERIZATION OF THE MISSISSIPPIAN MERAMEC, OSAGE, AND SYCAMORE FORMATIONS, ANADARKO BASIN, CENTRAL OKLAHOMA
Terrell, Cory (2019-05)The principal goals of this study were to characterize the regional stratigraphy, analyze the extent of diagenetic alteration, and determine the factors controlling reservoir quality of the Meramec, Osage, and Sycamore ... -
Stable nitrogen isotope signal in crude oils throughout geologic time
Johansen, Alyse (2017-05-12)Stable nitrogen isotopic compositions of asphaltene and NSO hydrocarbon fractions from sixty-two crude oils derived from siliciclastic, carbonate/marl, hypersaline and lacustrine source rocks of known geologic age ranging ...
