A Diagenetic and Paleomagnetic Study of the Woodford Shale, Oklahoma, U.S.A.
(2017)
Two Woodford Shale cores from the Anadarko Basin (Core A, Core C) and one oriented Woodford Shale core from the Ardmore Basin near the Ouachita thrust zone (Core B) were sampled in order to identify diagenetic events, ...
Unsupervised seismic facies using Gaussian mixture models
(2017-08)
ABSTRACT
As the use of seismic attributes becomes more widespread, multivariate seismic analysis has become more commonplace for seismic facies analysis. Unsupervised machine learning techniques provide methods of ...
RESERVOIR CHARACTERIZATION AND MODELING OF THE DESMOINESIAN SERIES GRANITE WASH, BUFFALO WALLOW FIELD, ANADARKO BASIN, TEXAS
(2017)
The Desmoinesian Series Granite Wash at Buffalo Wallow Field represents deepwater
deposits including slumps, channels, and submarine fan lobes that consist of six major
lithofacies as mudstone, interbedded mudstone and ...
ANHYDRITE NUCLEATION AND GROWTH AT LOW TEMPERATURES: EFFECTS OF FLOW RATE, ACTIVITY OF WATER, AND MINERAL SUBSTRATES
(2017-05)
Understanding calcium sulfate mineral formation is crucial to understanding depositional environments and diagenetic conditions on and near the martian surface where calcium sulfates with varying hydration states have been ...
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 ...
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 ...
Rock properties derived from analysis of earth tide strain observed in continuous pressure monitoring of the Arbuckle Group of Oklahoma
(2017)
The Arbuckle Group is an important geologic unit in the state of Oklahoma because of its suitability as a saltwater disposal (SWD) zone. In 2014, the Arbuckle Group received about 68% of the total volumes of saltwater ...
Seismic Stratigraphy of a Circular Concave-Downward Structure, Chukchi Sea
(2017-12-15)
A circular concave-downward structure (CCDS) and its structural features and seismic facies can be observed in several 2D seismic lines imaging the Chukchi Sea planning area. The area in question is largely underexplored ...
ASSESSING MUDROCK CHARACTERISTICS, HIGH-RESOLUTION CHEMOSTRATIGRAPHY, AND SEQUENCE STRATIGRAPHY OF THE WOODFORD SHALE IN THE MCALISTER CEMETERY QUARRY, ARDMORE BASIN, OKLAHOMA
(2017-12-16)
The Late Devonian – Early Mississippian Woodford Shale is a significant unconventional play in the Midcontinent region. An approximately 365ft thick exposure of the Woodford Shale is present in the McAlister Cemetery Quarry. ...
