(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)Sedimentary basins can contain close to 20% by volume pore fluids that are commonly classified as brines. These fluids can become undersaturated with respect to calcite as a result of processes such as migration, dispersive ...

(2012-10-19)Coal balls are carbonate concretions formed in peat during the Pennsylvanian and early Permian. Microprobe and microscope analysis reveal that polycrystals of high-Mg calcite (HMC), which are also high in Sr, are the ...
-
(2019-05-21)Reactive nature of steam and clay minerals may lead to formation damage and flow assurance issues. This dissertation presents experimental investigation of oil recovery and changes in petrophysical properties as a function ...
-
(2017-07-20)Carbonates and shales are an integral component of fold-and-thrust belts. Deformation processes that control the rheology of these faults are influenced by internal and external conditions. To understand how these processes ...
