Reservoir characterization of the upper Merecure and lower Oficina Formations sands in the Leona Este Field, Eastern Venezuela Basin
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The "S5", "T" and "U1" sands, traditionally described as part of the lower section of the "Oficina" Formation, and the "U2" sand, as part of the upper interval of the "Merecure" Formation, contain the largest oil remaining ...
Trapping capacity of fault zones, downdip Yegua Formation, Texas Gulf Coast basin
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The homogenization of sediment from shearing forms traps in both the hanging wall and footwall due to capillary pressure differences. The sheared zone associated with large faults can form traps. Sheared zones associated ...
Regional characteristics, timing, and significance of dissolution and collapse features in Lower Cretaceous carbonate platform strata, Desoto Canyon area, offshore Alabama-Florida
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Lower Cretaceous carbonate strata from the central DeSoto Canyon area, offshore Alabama and Florida were studied to determine the extent, intensity, and controlling factors on dissolution-collapse features within these ...
High-resolution stratigraphic and structural characterization of the fault-partitioned Hickory Sandstone aquifer system, Mason County, central Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The Hickory Sandstone is an important aquifer in central Texas and is partitioned by faults that impede cross-fault fluid flow. This study provides a detailed stratigraphic and structural model in the vicinity of a normal, ...
Structural characterization of the Emperor and Halley fields, Winkler County, West Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The Halley and Emperor fields, Winkler County, West Texas, are located along the western margin of the Central Basin Platform (CBP), a late Paleozoic fault-bounded structural high in the Permian Basin. Well data, regional ...
Regional geologic characterization of the Second Bone Spring Sandstone, Delaware basin, Lea and Eddy Counties, New Mexico
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The Bone Spring Formation is a series of interbedded siliciclastics and carbonates that were deposited in the Delaware basin during the Leonardian (Early Permian). It consists of the First, Second and Third Carbonate and ...
Interactive visualization for geoscience education: Java-based instructional tools for introductory geology
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Two web-based interactive visualization tools were developed to support problem-based learning in tertiary introductory geoscience classes. The presented tools were designed using the Java[TM] programming language, following ...
Seismic interpretation and regional geologic correlation established for offshore Togo, West Africa: a preliminary evaluation of hydrocarbon potential in deep water
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
Offshore Togo, West Africa provides exciting potential for hydrocarbon exploration. Previous exploration is limited to four wells, drilled prior to 1986 in shallow water. This investigation focuses on a 625 km² section ...
