Diffraction imaging using Geometric-mean Reverse-Time Migration and Common Reflection Surface
(2017-12)
Diffracted waves contain a great deal of valuable information about small-scale subsurface structure such as faults, pinch-outs, karsts and fractures, which are tightly related to hydrocarbon accumulation and production. ...
A RECORD OF MID-LATITUDE DUSTINESS IN A CARBONIFEROUS-PERMIAN CARBONATE RAMP ON CENTRAL SPITSBERGEN
(2018)
This study focuses on a mid-latitude dust record from the Wordiekammen Formation, a carbonate ramp on Spitsbergen. The ramp developed on the Northern Pangean margin in Moscovian (Carboniferous) through Sakmarian (Permian) ...
A Gravity and Magnetic Study of the Structure Evolution of Sichuan Basin
(2016)
The Sichuan Basin and its adjacent area have attracted increasing research attention during the past decade. Although damaging earthquakes occurred in 2008, the natural gas potential in this region is also remarkable. ...
HIGH-RESOLUTION XRF-LIDAR SEQUENCE STRATIGRAPHY OF THE LATE GUADALUPIAN CAPITAN SLOPE AT MCKITTRICK CANYON, TEXAS: PROCESS-RESPONSE OF OSCILLATING DELAWARE BASIN SEA LEVEL
(2018-05-12)
Owing to their intermediate position within the facies tract, carbonate slopes connecting platforms to the basin floor are continuous subaqueous sensitive sedimentologic recorders of changes in sea level and ocean chemistry. ...
Study of stress field in seismogenic processes in Oklahoma
(2017)
The recently increased seismicity in Oklahoma provides a rich catalog that delineates unmapped fault system. In this project, I identify 88 clusters with 20 or more earthquakes using automatic nearest-neighbor approach. ...
SUBSURFACE PRESSURE MODELING OF SALTWATER DISPOSAL FOR THE ARBUCKLE AND TIMBERED HILLS-BASEMENT SYSTEM, ANADARKO SHELF, OKLAHOMA
(2018-12)
Increased saltwater disposal (SWD) into a geologic zone, the Arbuckle Group, has been related to higher than background levels of seismicity in Oklahoma since 2009. Recent studies have shown statistical associations of ...
Reservoir Characterization and Chemostratigraphy of the Goddard Shale in the South Central Oklahoma Oil Province
(2016)
The Goddard Shale of the South Central Oklahoma Oil Province, or SCOOP, has become a formation of interest in recent years. However, there is a paucity of published information in regards to this formation. Therefore, the ...
RELFECTION SEISMIC INVESTIGATION OF AN ALPINE VALLEY IN UNAWEEP CANYON, WESTERN COLORADO: EVIDENCE OF PALEOZOIC GLACIATION OF THE UNCOMPAHGRE PLATEAU
(2019-05)
Unaweep Canyon in Western Colorado is a unique landscape which has a puzzling history. The canyon has a wide U-shaped profile in the west that contrasts with the narrow V-shaped river carved canyons nearby. Many suggest ...
GEOCHEMICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF THE LOWER PENNSYLVANIAN MORROW SHALE IN THE ANADARKO BASIN OF OKLAHOMA
(2018-05-11)
The Morrow Formation is one of the most widespread units of Early Pennsylvanian time in the Anadarko Basin. While the Morrow Sandstone has been one of the most productive oil and gas reservoirs since the 1950s, the Morrow ...
CORE BASED DEPOSITIONAL, CHEMOSTRATIGRAPHIC, AND DIAGENETIC ANALYSIS OF THE UPPER WOLFCAMP, SOUTHERN DELAWARE BASIN, TEXAS
(2019-05-10)
The Wolfcamp Series in the Southern Delaware Basin of West Texas is Permian in age and is composed of a mix of siliciclastics and carbonates deposited through pelagic sedimentation, turbidity currents, and mass wasting in ...
