Continuity, Connectivity and Reservoir Characteristics of Desmoinesian Fan-Delta Conglomerates and Sandstones, Elk City Field, Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma
(2016-12)
Marmaton Group (Desmoinesian) Granite Wash deposits of the Elk City Field, in eastern Beckham and western Washita counties, Oklahoma, are composed of sandstones, conglomerates, and mudstones that were deposited as fan ...
FLUVIAL ARCHITECTURE OF THE BURRO CANYON FORMATION USING UAV-BASED PHOTOGRAMMETRY AND OUTCROP-BASED MODELING: IMPLICATIONS FOR RESERVOIR PERFORMANCE, RATTLESNAKE CANYON, SOUTHWESTERN PICEANCE BASIN, COLORADO
(2018)
The stratigraphic variability of fluvial architectural elements and their internal lithological and petrophysical heterogeneity influence static connectivity and fluid flow. To explore the impact of fluvial architecture ...
Microseismic Location Using Differential Backazimuth Angles
(2016-05)
The most common procedure for locating borehole microseismic events is solution of a minimization problem based on observed travel time differences compared to calculated travel time differences derived from a given velocity ...
FAULT RUPTURE PROCESSES DURING HIGH VELOCITY ROTARY SHEAR EXPERIMENTS
(2016-05-13)
High velocity shear experiments can provide information on fault rupture processes that seismological methods cannot. The present study focuses on two main aspects of fault rupture processes. One is developing a new, ...
AN ICEHOUSE DUST RECORD FROM THE UPPER PALEOZOIC (ASSELIAN-ARTINSKIAN, MOSCOVIAN) AKIYOSHI LIMESTONE (JAPAN)
(2016)
The Akiyoshi terrane in southwest Japan consists of a subduction-generated accretionary complex of shallow-marine limestone and deep-water spicular chert, underlain by ocean island-type basalt, all of which was obducted ...
ESTIMATING BRITTLENESS USING SEISMIC DATA IN AN UNCONVENTIONAL SHALE RESERVOIR, FORT WORTH BASIN, NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS
(2017-05-13)
Brittleness within unconventional shale plays is a major component in reservoir
stimulation. Mineralogy measured in nearby wells estimates brittleness and can be
correlated to elastic parameters measured in well logs ...
A PALEOMAGNETIC AND PETROGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF UNCONFORMITY SURFACES IN NEVADA AND MISSOURI: POSSIBLE IMPLICATIONS FOR PALEOWEATHERING PROCESSES
(2017-08)
Paleomagnetic dating has proven to be a valuable tool in dating geologically significant events such as timing of deposition, deformation, or diagenesis. When combined with petrographic methods and field relationships, we ...
An Integrated LiDAR-XRF Study and Geomechanical Lithofacies Analysis of the Leonardian Upper Bone Spring Formation, Bone Canyon, Texas
(2019-05)
The purpose of this study is to constrain geomechanical parameters effecting hydraulic stimulation networks within the upper Bone Spring formation, through the collection and examination of outcrop data. Data utilized in ...
PROCESS SEDIMENTOLOGY OF THE GUADALUPIAN RADER LIMESTON, DELAWARE BASIN
(2017)
An integrated LiDAR, XRF, Spectral Gamma Ray, and outcrop investigation was performed on the upper Guadalupian Rader Formation in the Delaware Basin of West Texas. The Rader Formation, is an upper slope carbonate submarine ...
Catastrophic Process Event Stratigraphy of the Rader Member in the Delaware Basin
(2018-12-14)
The Bell Canyon Formation, Middle Rader Member, debrite crops out in Guadalupe Mountains (along Highway 62, McKittrick Canyon and vicinity) revealing a Late Guadalupian catastrophic submarine debris slide. The formation ...
