Nanopetrophysical Characterization of the Wolfcamp A Shale Formation in the Permian Basin of Southeastern New Mexico, U.S.A.
(2019-12-05)
The Permian Basin has been producing oil and gas for over a century, but the production has increased rapidly in recent years due to new completion methods such as hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling. The Wolfcamp ...
Laboratory-Scale Petrophysical Evaluation of Lithofacies Effect on Reservoir & Source Quality and Core-Calibrated Well Log Analysis in Pennsylvanian-Permian Wolfcamp-Spraberry Intervals, Midland Basin, Texas, USA
(2019-12-05)
The “Wolfberry” play, which is made up of the Spraberry and Wolfcamp formations, is an important resource for the exploitation of hydrocarbons with a need for additional petrophysical understanding. Although the Wolfcamp ...
Variability and Temporal Trends of Semivolatile Organic Compounds in Biological and Environmental Media
(2020-08-28)
Exposure to semivolatile organic compounds (SVOCs) in indoor environments and its potential impact on human health have been receiving increased public attention, because people in developed countries spend over 80% of ...
NANO-PETROPHYSICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF THE OIL WINDOW OF EAGLE FORD SHALE FROM SOUTHWESTERN TO CENTRAL TEXAS, U.S.A.
(2020-08-05)
Eagle Ford Shale and the overlying Austin Chalk are the main producing plays throughout Central Texas. Due to the high clastic nature of Eagle Ford Shale and its ability to produce and maintain fractures from hydraulic ...
RECOMPILATION OF LITHOLOGICAL PROXIES ACROSS THE PERMIAN-TRIASSIC BOUNDARY
(2020-12-09)
The largest mass extinction occurred near the Permian-Triassic boundary (PTB; 251.902 ± 0.024 Ma; Shen et al., 2011), with the demise of more than 90% of marine species and 70% of terrestrial species. This study expands ...
Stable isotope composition of surface water across central Mexico
(2020-12-09)
Understanding the controlling factors of modern surface water stable isotope compositions is important for reconstructions of paleoclimate and paleoelevation. Few studies have attempted to understand patterns of surface ...
TRACING PALEOZOIC SILICICLASTIC SEDIMENT DISPERSAL TO THE FORT WORTH AND MIDLAND BASINS: IMPLICATIONS FOR PALEOGEOGRAPHY AND ORGANIC MATTER ACCUMULATION
(2019-05-14)
The Fort Worth and Midland Basins in central and West Texas are major petroleum-producing systems in North America. The provenances of the thick Paleozoic sedimentary rocks in both basins are poorly constrained, although ...
Indoor Air Quality In Schools: An Investigation Of The Impact Of Outdoor Air Quality, School Layout, And Room Type
(Environmental & Earth Science, 2014-09-17)
Indoor air quality (IAQ) in educational facilities is a very important aspect of the educational process because it may affect the students and staff health and performance. This study was conducted during the 2012-2013 ...
Fracture Density Of Units In The Brushy Canyon Formation, Whitehorse Group And Winchell Formation Of The Permian Basin.
(Geology, 2013-10-22)
This study tests the theoretical equation(Fd Ua)/μ=A v/(1-2v)+B, where Fd equals the fracture density present in a geologic unit under constant strain conditions. The material properties in the equation were measured using ...
The Subsidence Evolution Of The Fort Worth Basin In North Central Texas, U.S.A.
(Environmental & Earth Science, 2014-09-17)
Although the Fort Worth Basin in north-central Texas has become a major shale-gas production system in recent years, its subsidence history and dynamic relationship to the Ouachita fold-and-thrust belt have not been well ...
