Nano-scale Petrophysical Studies of The Gothic Shale Interval in the Paradox Basin, Colorado, U.S.A.
(2017-12-01)
Hydrocarbon production from shale has become a main energy source for the United States. Consequently, an increased knowledge of the petrophysical properties of shale such as porosity, permeability, tortuosity, and ...
Nanopetrophysics Characterization of the Mancos Shale Formation in the San Juan Basin of northwestern New Mexico, U.S.A.
(2017-12-01)
The Mancos Shale of the San Juan Basin is no stranger to the drilling of oil and gas, but traditional exploration within the region has predominantly been limited to the use of conventional vertical wells. Due to the recent ...
Coupled Geochemical and Nano-Petrophysical Study of the Utica Play, Appalachian Basin, Ohio, U.S.A.
(2017-11-29)
Being more extensive than the Marcellus Play, the Utica Play covers from New York state in the north to northeastern Kentucky and Tennessee in the south. The Utica Play is a stacked play consisting of organic-rich mudstones ...
GLOBAL MARINE CARBON EXPORT PRODUCTION DURING EOCENE HYPERTHERMAL EVENTS
(2017-12-20)
Early Eocene hyperthermal events can be an analog for global warming. Pelagic marine barite in deep sea sediment is a proxy for marine export production of organic matter into the deep ocean. Pelagic marine barite accumulation ...
CHARACTERIZATION OF NANOPETROPHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF THE MANCOS “B”/ PRAIRIE CANYON MEMBER OF THE MANCOS SHALE, RIO BLANCO, COLORADO
(2017-12-04)
Over the past decade hydrocarbon production from unconventional reservoirs has grown to become a significant source of North American domestic energy and will likely continue so for decades to come. However, production ...
Petrophysical Characterization of the Jo Mill Submarine Fan Complex, Spraberry Trend, Midland Basin, Texas
(2017-12-01)
Understanding and quantifying reservoir quality require a new suite of knowledge when approaching the nanometer sized pore-networks of unconventional reservoirs. These low porosity and permeability reservoirs have been ...
PETROPHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF THE WOODFORD FORMATION IN THE ARDMORE BASIN IN OKLAHOMA, U.S.A
(2017-12-04)
A prolific source rock in Oklahoma, the Woodford Shale has sourced petroleum reservoirs for millions of years and produced oil and gas since 1939. Not until the shale boom of the early 2000’s was the full potential of the ...
IMPROVING REGIONAL HYDROLOGY FORECASTING FOR THE NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS REGION UTILIZING CONDITIONAL ENSEMBLE STREAMFLOW AND HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL CONDITION PREDICTIONS WITH ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK MODELING
(2017-05-10)
The predictive skill of hydrologic variables such as streamflow and soil moisture, in North Central Texas, has improved substantially in the recent decades. However, substantial model-data biases are still present during ...
A MEGABRECCIA WITH ASSOCIATED STRATIGRAPHY OF THE CHERRY CANYON AND BELL CANYON FORMATIONS TRANSITION (GUADALUPIAN, MIDDLE PERMIAN), SOUTHERN DELAWARE MOUNTAINS, WEST TEXAS
(2017-05-10)
The Cherry Canyon and Bell Canyon Formations (Guadalupian, Middle Permian) are well exposed in the southern part of the Delaware Mountains, West Texas and are marked by the presence of several distinct and widespread debris ...
NANO-PETROPHYSICS OF THE HYBRID SHALE-OIL BONE SPRING FORMATION, LEA COUNTY, NEW MEXICO
(2017-05-23)
Despite the increased hydrocarbon production in hydraulically stimulated unconventional reservoirs, how fluid flows through the rock matrix in these reservoirs is still not well understood. It has been shown that much of ...
