Integrated petrographic and petrophysical study of the Smackover formation, Womack Hill field, Clarke and Choctaw counties, Alabama
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
The objective of this study was to describe depositional and diagenetic characteristics of the Oxfordian (Jurassic) Smackover formation in Womack Hill field, Alabama, as part of an integrated reservoir description program. ...
Effectiveness of in site biodegradation for the remediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons at a contaminated oil refinery, Port Arthur, Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
The effectiveness of bioremediation for the removal of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from sediments contaminated with highly weathered petroleum was evaluated at a contaminated oil refinery. The sediments were ...
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 ...
High-amplitude reflection packets (HARPs) of the Mississippi Fan, Gulf of Mexico
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Examination of seismic data from the deep-water Gulf of Mexico reveals the presence of High-Amplitude Reflection Packets (HARPs). An analog study conducted by the Ocean Drilling Program Leg 155 identified and described ...
Contribution of valley-side erosion to sedimentation problems in Wolf Pen Creek, College Station, Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Many of the physical and chemical aspects of an ecological system must be evaluated as part of the design phase of many man-made parks. If these factors are not taken into account, the result may be a park with little ...
Late Paleocene paleoenvironmental gradients in Wilcox Group strata, Big Brown Mine, Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
The Wilcox Group in Texas has been recognized as an important oil and gas reservoir for much of this century, and for the last 30 years has been commercially mined for its extensive shallow lignitic coals. More recently, ...
The surface expression of Longhorn Cavern, Burnet County, Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
This study investigates the surface to subsurface relationship at Longhorn Cavern State Park, which can become one part of an interdisciplinary educational program taught at the park. Longhorn Cavern is located on Backbone ...
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 ...
