SEISMIC FACIES CLASSIFICATION OF THE LOWER STRAWN FORMATION, BEND-ARCH, FORT WORTH BASIN, NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS
(2016-12-17)
The Bend Arch- Fort Worth Basin is a tectonically active area along north-central Texas that exhibits a complex sediment distribution. While Pennsylvanian plays have been one of the main exploratory targets, the depositional ...
Frictional Properties of Fault Gouge in HIgh Velocity/Long Distance Shear Experiments
(2016-05-14)
The present objective is the characterization of the dynamic friction and seismic stability of fault gouge in high-velocity/long-distance shear experiments. The study has two parts based on the gouge source: A) Reservoir ...
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 ...
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 ...
Improving fault images using a directional Laplacian of a Gaussian operator
(2016-05)
Fault picking is a critical, but human-intensive component of seismic interpretation. In a bid to improve fault imaging in seismic data, I have applied a directional Laplacian of a Gaussian (dLoG) operator to sharpen fault ...
STRATIGRAPHIC AND TEXTURAL ANALYSIS OF NANODIAMONDS ACROSS THE YOUNGER DRYAS BOUNDARY SEDIMENTS OF WESTERN OKLAHOMA
(2016)
Exposed sediment profiles of the panhandle of western Oklahoma have
previously been shown to contain two peak abundances of nanodiamonds, one dated
approximately to the Younger Dryas and the other from the Late Holocene. ...
Organic Geochemistry of The Woodford Shale, Cherokee Platform, OK and its Role in a Complex Petroleum System
(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 ...
APPLICATION AND LIMITATIONS OF SEISMIC ATTRIBUTES ON 2D RECONNAISSANCE SURVEYS
(2016-05-14)
Reconnaissance surveys of 2D seismic data are acquired before most 3D seismic
surveys to define the area of interest and regional trends. While seismic attributes are
routinely applied to 3D data, they are less commonly ...
