ATMOSPHERIC DUST FROM THE UPPER CARBONIFEROUS COPACABANA FORMATION (BOLIVIA): A HIGH-RESOLUTION RECORD OF CLIMATE AND VOLCANISM FROM NORTHWESTERN GONDWANA
(2016-08-19)
This study documents the occurrence of atmospheric dust from Pennsylvanian carbonates of the Copacabana Formation, recovered in core (Mobil-Oxy Manuripi X-1) from the Madre de Dios basin (Bolivia), within southern mid-latitudes ...
CONTROLS OF PRE-EXISTING NORMAL FAULTS ON THE GEOMETRY AND LOCATION OF THRUST FAULTS IN FOLD-THRUST BELTS
(2016)
Pre-existing normal faults are commonly cited as influencing both the sequence of faulting and the location of thrust faults in fold-thrust belts. Scaled experimental models for both frictional and ductile detachments were ...
OIL POTENTIAL OF THE ASQUITH MARKER, LEWIS SHALE, GREATER GREEN RIVER BASIN, WYOMING.
(2016-05-13)
Large volumes of gas and some oil have been produced from the Cretaceous Lewis Shale, and it is often considered a regional source of gas in the Greater Green River Basin. However, the Lewis Shale has never been studied ...
Geochemical Characterization of the Upper Mississippian Goddard Formation, Springer Group, in the Anadarko Basin of Oklahoma
(2016)
The Goddard Formation is the basal unit of the Late Mississippian-Early Pennsylvanian Springer Group of Oklahoma. This Formation is part of a stacked oil and condensate play in the South Central Oklahoma Oil Province ...
PLEISTOCENE CORAL REEF DESTRUCTION IN THE FLORIDA KEYS: PALEOTEMPESTITE EVIDENCE FROM A HIGH RESOLUTION LIDAR XRF ANALYSIS OF WINDLEY KEY QUARRY, FL
(2016-05-14)
Not all unconformities are alike, and for carbonates, their discrimination can be difficult. In this regard, one particular discontinuity surface, among many, which is exposed as a laterally persistent surface in the ...
Paleoenvironmental interpretation of the Woodford shale with primary focus on water column structure
(2015-05-09)
Twenty-nine Woodford Shale rock samples were acquired from the Wyche-1 core derived from the Wyche Farm Shale Pit, Pontotoc County, Arkoma Basin, Oklahoma. The TOC (total organic carbon) values ranged from 3.47-16.90 wt.%, ...
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 ...
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 ...
