Petroleum Geology Of The Leonardian Age, Harkey Mills Sandstone: A New Horizontal Target In The Permian Bone Spring Formation, Eddy And Lea Counties, Southeast New Mexico
Davis, Marshall Dewayne (Geology, 2014-12)Lowstand, siliciclastic turbidite and submarine fan deposits within the Leonardian Bone Spring Formation have proved to be prolific targets for horizontal drilling across the northern portion of the Delaware Basin. Reservoir ... -
Predicting Fracture Density In The Eagle Ford (Boquillas) Formation, Val Verde Basin, Texas
Kimiagar, Sean (Environmental & Earth Science, 2014-03-12)Fracture density in hydrocarbon reservoirs is an important variable for efficient production of oil and gas in tight reservoirs. Fracture density is the fracture surface area per unit of volume, and the higher the reservoir ... -
Regional Stratigraphy of the Marble Falls Formation and Underlying Late Mississippian to Early Pennsylvanian Deposits, Fort Worth Basin, North-Central Texas, USA
Berend, Beau Daniel; 0000-0003-4292-7288 (2015-12-09)The Early Pennsylvanian Marble Falls Formation in the Fort Worth Basin (FWB) of North-Central Texas was deposited in a broad carbonate ramp system during the initial stages of Ouachita orogenesis. It extends across an ... -
Seismic Inversion In Fluvial Reservoirs: Building A Geologic Model-based Inversion For The Stratton Field 3D Survey
Odom, Richard Charles (Geology, 2010-03-03)Seismic surveys, in particular 3-D surveys, are an important tool for imaging geologic structure in the subsurface; they are routinely applied to map structural trends and geometry to define the reservoir structure. Many ... -
Statistical Analysis Of Rock Fabrics
Avdeev, Boris (Geology, 2007-08-23)The main goal of the work is to present new procedures for statistical analysis of fabric data for structural geology. After an introduction to the problems of orientation analysis, discussion of different types of the ... -
Surface Lineaments And Lithofacies Distribution Of The Tyler Formation In Southwestern North Dakota
Guerrero, Nicolas Beltran (Geology, 2012-07-25)The purpose of this study is to investigate whether a correlation exists between surface lineaments and lithofacies distribution of the Pennsylvanian Tyler Formation in the southwest portion of North Dakota of the Williston ... -
A Tectonic Reconstruction Of Accreted Terranes Along The Paleo-Pacific Margin Of Gondwana
Bammel, Brandon (Environmental & Earth Science, 2014-07-14)The southern oceanic margin of Gondwana was nearly 40,000 km long or 24,854.8 miles. The southern margin was the result of the Terra Australis orogen. Spanning 18,000 km or 11,184.7 miles and is proposed as one of the ... -
The Variance Of Methane Adsorption And Its Relation To Thermal Maturity In The Marcellus Shale
Miller, Alexander Addison (Geology, 2015)In unconventional shale gas plays, gas-in-place is a major factor in evaluating the shale’s potential and determining well density and lateral placement. The two main contributors to total gas-in-place are free gas and ...
