Comparison of Surface and Downhole Microseismic Acquisition
(2017-12-16)
The most common microseismic monitoring methods used in the industry today are by the use of surface arrays and downhole arrays. In surface acquisition, sensors are deployed on the surface in large two-dimensional arrays, ...
Using 3D Seismic Attributes to Investigate Mud Losses in a Fluvial-Deltaic Sand: An Example From the Oliver Sandstone
(2017)
Drilling operations in an actively developed basin in Wyoming can experience
large quantities of mud losses in a shallow zone along the intermediate (vertical) section
of the wellbore. These losses can negatively impact ...
Deltaic Sedimentation and Stratigraphy of the Late Cretaceous Frontier Formation in the Southeast Bighorn Basin, Wyoming
(2019-05-10)
Regional subsurface mapping of the Cretaceous Frontier Formation indicates that it was deposited as discrete deltaic lobes within the Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway (KWIS). The source of sediment was to the west and ...
FLUVIAL ARCHITECTURE OF THE BURRO CANYON FORMATION USING UAV-BASED PHOTOGRAMMETRY - IMPLICATIONS FOR RESERVOIR PERFORMANCE, ESCALANTE CANYON, SOUTHWESTERN PICEANCE BASIN, COLORADO
(2018)
The Cretaceous Burro Canyon Formation in the southern Piceance Basin, Colorado represents low-sinuosity to sinuous braided fluvial deposits that consist of amalgamated channel complexes, amalgamated and isolated fluvial-bar ...
Sequence stratigraphic framework of the Caney Shale, Arkoma Basin southeastern Oklahoma
(2011)
Many petroleum companies have turned their attention to the exploration and development of shale as unconventional resource plays. The focus of this study was the Caney Shale, which occurs in the Oklahoma part of the Arkoma ...
Development of a State-Wide Velocity Profile in Oklahoma Using Ambient Noise Seismic Tomography
(2018)
Earthquakes have been a growing concern in the state of Oklahoma in the last several years and as a result, prediction of the ground motion, understanding of subsurface geological structure, and the estimation of accurate ...
APPLICATION OF MODERN 3D SEISMIC DATA ACQUIRED FOR DEEPER RESOURCE PLAYS TO SHALLOWER MATURE FIELDS – A RED FORK CASE STUDY
(2017-05)
Utilizing a modern 3D survey acquired for a deeper resource play one can also
examine potential drilling hazards and behind pipe pay in shallower formations. This
study concentrates on the Red Fork sands that have been ...
MULTISCALE SPATIOTEMPORAL ANALYSES OF SEISMICITY AND WASTEWATER INJECTION IN OKLAHOMA
(2017-05)
The increase in seismicity in Oklahoma since 2009 has been primarily attributed to wastewater disposal, however, the extent and nature of the relationship is not clear. On the state level, there is no statistically significant ...
AN INTEGRATED ANALYSIS OF SEQUENCE STRATIGRAPHY, PETROLEUM GEOCHEMISTRY, AND DEVONIAN MASS EXTINCTION EVENTS IN THE WOODFORD SHALE, SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA
(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 ...
Calibrating seismic fracture prediction using borehole image logs, application to the Mississippian Limestone
(2016-05)
The Mississippian Limestone of North Oklahoma and Southern Kansas has been one of the more active Midcontinent resource plays of the past decade, with over 4,300 horizontal wells drilled and completed between 2010 and 2015 ...
