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 ...
Experimental Modeling of Geometry and Evolution of Structures above Ductile and Frictional Detachments
(2016-05-13)
Fold-thrust belts formed above ductile units like salt are typically characterized by detachment folds, whereas those formed above frictional detachments contain fault-related folds, such as fault-bend folds and duplexes. ...
Correlation of Bioturbated Facies, Chemostratigraphy, Total Organic Carbon, and Sequence Stratigraphy in the Woodford Shale of South Central Oklahoma
(2016-12)
Bioturbation creates a physical change in the primary rock structure and mineralogy. It is evidence of past life in the sediments and can assist in determining the depositional environment. Organisms once lived and fed ...
Novel Biomarker Distributions in the Chesterian Limestone of the Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma
(2017-05)
18α(H)-Oleanane is a biomarker that is proposed to be derived from β-amyrin, which is produced by angiosperm plants. As such, the presence of 18α(H)-oleanane is often used as an indicator that the petroleum source is of ...
MISSISSIPPIAN MERAMEC LITHOLOGIES AND PETROPHYSICAL PROPERTY VARIABILITY, STACK TREND, ANADARKO BASIN, OKLAHOMA
(2019-05)
Mississippian Meramec reservoirs of the STACK (Sooner Trend in the Anadarko [Basin] in Canadian and Kingfisher counties) play are comprised of silty limestones, calcareous siltstones, argillaceous-calcareous siltstones, ...
A Diagenetic Study of the Wolfcamp Shale in the Midland Basin, West Texas
(2016-05-14)
The lower Permian Wolfcamp Shale is a major unconventional resource play in the Permian Basin. Near the eastern margin of the Midland Basin the Wolfcamp Shale is comprised of calcareous and siliceous mudstones interbedded ...
Aftershock decay in space and time of induced seismicity in Oklahoma
(2019-05-10)
The current paradigm for estimating long-term seismic hazard in a region includes removing dependent earthquakes that occur after a mainshock, otherwise known as aftershocks, from an earthquake catalog to identify the ...
