Well Log And Core-derived Reservoir Properties Of Barnett Shale Of Fort Worth Basin
(Environmental & Earth Science, 2014-12)
Wireline tools and log analysis methods were not designed for unconventional reservoirs. As a result, hydrocarbon assessment for shale source rock plays have significant uncertainties. This study focuses on petrophysical ...
Sensitivity Of The Late Permian Climate To Tectonic And Radiative Forcing Changes: Implications For The Mass Extinction
(Environmental & Earth Science, 2014-12)
The largest mass extinction occurred near the Permian-Triassic boundary (ca. 252 Ma). Significant carbon isotope shifts indicate that perturbations in the carbon cycle occurred during the Late Permian and persisted into ...
Geochemical Analysis Of The Woodford Shale, Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma
(Geology, 2014-07-14)
The Woodford Shale is a dark, siliceous mudstone that was deposited in a rift basin during late Devonian to early Mississippian times. Three drill cores containing the Woodford Shale from the Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma, have ...
Using Spontaneous Imbibition And Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry To Investigate The Effect Of Pore Structure On Fluid Migration Within Porous Media
(Environmental & Earth Science, 2014-07-14)
Much research has been conducted to investigate the property of fluid (water/oil/gas) migration in different types of porous media, and the knowledge of pore structure (including pore geometry and pore connectivity) plays ...
Geochemistry Of The Haynesville Formation Using The Carthage Core In Panola County, Texas
(Geology, 2014-07-14)
The Haynesville Formation has been described as a fine grained, organic, homogeneous shale that was deposited during the warm upper Jurassic (Kimmeridgian) in the tectonically formed East Texas Basin (Mainali, 2011). The ...
Stable Isotopic And Geochemical Studies Of Late Quaternary Stalagmites, South-Central Appalachian Mountains, Eastern North America
(Environmental & Earth Science, 2014-07-14)
A tripartite investigation was conducted utilizing speleothem geochemistry and modern cave environments: reconstruction of paleoclimate variability in southeastern West Virginia that spans the late Pleistocene to mid-Holocene, ...
Depositional Facies And Reservoir Analysis Of The Tyler Formation In The Central Williston Basin, North Dakota
(Environmental & Earth Science, 2014-07-14)
Traditionally, the Pennsylvanian Tyler Formation has been targeted as a conventional reservoir consisting of barrier island and channel sand deposits in the southwestern Williston basin, North Dakota. The purpose of this ...
Chemostratigraphy Of The Late Cretaceous Eagle Ford Group, South Texas
(Geology, 2014-07-14)
Strata of the Eagle Ford Group of South Texas, deposited during the Cenomanian and Turonian of the Late Cretaceous, are largely characterized as mixed siliciclastic and carbonate mudrocks rich in organic carbon. The Eagle ...
The Impact Of Impoundment And Urbanization On Shallow Groundwater Conditions In The Joe Pool Lake Catchment, Texas
(Environmental & Earth Science, 2014-12)
This dissertation is an assessment of the shallow groundwater (SGW) regime within the drainage area of Joe Pool Lake (JPL), an impoundment on Mountain Creek (MC) located in Grand Prairie, Texas. A thin zone of highly-weathered ...
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
(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 ...
