INTEGRATED GEOLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION AT THE BED SCALE OF THE WOODFORD SHALE AT THE I-35 OUTCROP, SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA
(2017)
A road-cut exposure located on the southern flank of the Arbuckle anticline along the Interstate-35 provided the opportunity to document in detail the lithological heterogeneities of the uppermost 81 feet of the Woodford ...
INVESTIGATION OF FAULTING PROCESSES OF TWO M5 EARTHQUAKE SEQUENCES IN OKLAHOMA
(2017-05)
I investigate the stress interaction inside different earthquake clusters to better understand the factors that might drive and control seismicity. I examine a catalog of 6226 events that have been relocated using the ...
SEQUENCE-STRATIGRAPHIC AND FACIES CONTROLS ON RESERVOIR QUALITY AND PRODUCTIVITY OF EARLY TO MIDDLE MIOCENE FLUVIAL AND TIDE-DOMINATED DELTAIC DEPOSITS, FORMATION 2, GULF OF THAILAND
(2018)
The Early to Middle Miocene Formation 2 is the main contributor to hydrocarbon production in the Gulf of Thailand. Formation 2 consists of nine key lithofacies deposits in fluvial and tide-dominated deltaic environments. ...
Variation in time averaging and taphonomic character of shell beds in Lake Tanganyika, Africa: Paleoenvironmental and stratigraphic implications of shell beds in rift lakes
(2018-05-11)
Large regions of the littoral lake bottom along structural platforms in Lake Tanganyika, Africa, are carpeted with shell beds of late Holocene age. The viviparous gastropod Neothauma tanganyicense (Neothauma) is the lead ...
Redox interfaces in the proximal Permian Cutler Formation, Mesa County, Western Colorado
(2019)
Diagenetic and hydrothermal fluid alteration of ancient sedimentary rocks create visible ferrous (green)/ferric (red) redox interfaces attributable to changes in iron oxide and phyllosilicate mineralogy. Redox interfaces ...
CORRELATING RATE OF PENETRATION AND BIT TRIPS TO 3D SURFACE SEISMIC DATA, ANADARKO SHELF, OKLAHOMA
(2016)
While initially thought to be laterally homogeneous, operators quickly realized that unconventional resource plays can exhibit considerable geologic heterogeneity. Since this realization, 3D surface seismic analysis has ...
Heterogeneity of clastic provenance to the Anadarko Basin and implications for paleogeography
(2018)
Thin section petrography and U/Pb detrital zircon geochronology were used to reconstruct Middle-Late Pennsylvanian drainage pathways into the Anadarko Basin, and evaluating the relative proportion of sediment originating ...
COMPARATIVE SEM ANALYSIS OF QUARTZ MICROTEXTURES ON FLUVIAL SAND FROM END-MEMBER CLIMATE SYSTEMS
(2016-05-14)
Microtextural analyses of sedimentary quartz grains are increasingly used as a paleoenvironmental proxy, as particular microtextures have been proposed to reflect processes unique to particular environmental or climatic ...
Comprehensive Reservoir Characterization of the Woodford Shale in Parts of Garfield and Kingfisher Counties, Oklahoma
(2016-12)
This research is a comprehensive characterization of the Woodford Shale within an area of six townships and ranges located at the boundary of Garfield and Kingfisher Counties in Oklahoma.
The methods of the Woodford Shale ...
Vertebrate fossil associations and taphonomy in the Morrison Formation (Upper Jurassic), Cimarron County, Oklahoma
(2007)
The purpose of this project is to evaluate fossil distribution within three dinosaur quarries in the Morrison Formation, excavated in the 1940s, in the panhandle of Oklahoma. The sedimentology and stratigraphy of the ...
