Abstract:
Understanding the genesis and habitat of hydrocarbons in a sedimentary basin takes knowledge of that basin at many levels, from basic infill geology to petroleum systems, plays, prospects and detailed sequence stratigraphy. While geophysics can define the basins and their internal structures, biostratigraphy and paleogeography provide greater understanding of basin geology. Micropaleontology and palynology are the chief tools that we need to define both the environment and dimension of time.As an example, the reconstruction of the Tasman Sea region to the mid-Cretaceous (ca 120 Ma) shows that the hydrocarbon-producing Gippsland and Taranaki petroleum basins developed at similar latitudes and in similar geological contexts. Other basins within the region have been lightly explored and need evaluation as to the value of further exploration.As paleontology has developed separately in Australia and New Zealand, comparison of biostratigraphic zones and their chronostratigraphy is critical to understand the similarity or otherwise of the sedimentary record of the two regions. Recent refinement of the NZ timescale and comparative studies on Gippsland Basin wells by NZ paleontologists have provided some key insights that enable us to compare the geological history of both regions more closely, and to recognise similarities in petroleum systems that may enhance petroleum prospects on both sides of the Tasman Sea.

Abstract:
Since 1987, the Geological Survey of Greenland (GGU) has been engaged in a re-assessment of the geology and petroleum potential of the region offshore southern West Greenland. In I994, a milestone was reached in this study when, for the first time, a fairly complete understanding of the regional structure and stratigraphy of all of the sedimentary basins and the continental margin off shore southern West Greenland was achieved. This paper presents an account of how the work was carried out and gives a summary of the geological results. Due to the area being offshore, its investigation required the interpretation of geophysical data, primarily seismic data, tied to boreholes.

Abstract:
The back-arc East China Sea Basin lies on extended continental crust at the leading edge of the Eurasian plate. In this study, the basins are described and subdivided according to their tectono-stratigraphic evolution. In order to distinguish between different phases of deformation in basin development, standard basin evolution patterns related to geodynamic drivers are identified as a first step. On the basis of this, standard patterns are recognized in the sedimentary sequences that characterize the area and its tectonic evolution, and linking them to the petroleum systems present is attempted. This is achieved by characterizing and grouping them into basin cycle-related petroleum system types (PSTs). Finally, the development of plays is examined within the petroleum systems in the context of their tectono-stratigraphic evolution, and groups of sub-basins with similar geological history and, therefore, potentially similar petroleum prospectivity are identified. In the East China Sea Basin, four proven and potential PSTs were recognized: (1) Late Cretaceous to Paleocene oil/gas-prone early syn-rift lacustrine–deltaic PST; (2) Eocene gas/oil prone late syn-rift marine PST; (3) Oligocene to Middle Miocene gas/oil-prone early post-rift fluvial–deltaic PST; (4) gas-prone syn-rift turbiditic PST. The geology and petroleum systems of three major sub-basins of the East China Sea Basin, the Xihu Sub-basin, the Lishui Sub-basin, and Okinawa Trough, are discussed in detail, and their petroleum systems and play development are analyzed. Finally, the sub-basins are grouped into “basin families” distinguished by their tectono-stratigraphic development, namely, Northwest to Northeast Shelf Basin (NWSB–NESB), Southwest to Southeast Shelf Basin (SWSB–SESB), and Okinawa Trough basin families, respectively.

Abstract:
Hydrocarbon deposits within oil and gas-bearing territories are distributed very unevenly both in area and in the section of sedimentary deposits, which is the main geological feature of oil and gas placement in the subsurface. The formation of hydrocarbon accumulations in the sedimentary cover is due to a set of genetic factors, which ultimately determines the patterns of placement of oil and gas accumulations along the section and area of the sedimentary cover. The study of the factors determining the zonation of oil and gas accumulation and genetically her condition, zoning of oil and gas formation, contributes not only to expanding our knowledge on the fundamental problems of petroleum geology, but also improve the efficiency of exploration.

Full text
Abstract:

The Middle Devonian Marcellus Shale is a natural gas producing formation that was deposited in the Appalachian foreland basin in what is now eastern North America. An unconformity truncates the Marcellus in southern West Virginia and progressively younger units onlap progressively older units. The zero isopach line that marks the edge of the Marcellus is mapped to reveal the southeastern boundary. A well production analysis is conducted to locate the region of maximum natural gas production. Four lithologic completions intervals in three different well fields are compared. This study shows that the most economically viable drilling is from the Marcellus Shale completion intervals that are less than 30 feet in Chapmanville gas field in western Logan County, West Virginia. Outside of the zero isopach are areas comprised of onlapping featheredges of younger formations that comprise a black shale unit mistakenly identified as “Marcellus Shale”. These areas produce significantly less gas than the “true” Marcellus Shale.

Full text
Abstract:

Two industry acquired diatomite cores (Sisquoc Formation) from the Orcutt (Newlove 76-RD1) and Casmalia Hills (Stokes A-30804) oil fields were analyzed by core descriptions, laboratory analysis (XRD and SEM), and gamma ray logs. Based on these data, five distinct lithofacies, nine sedimentary features and compositional trends of both cores were established. Newlove 76-RD1 and Stokes A-30804 record an upward-shallowing succession at different depositional positions on the Pliocene paleo-slope of the Santa Maria basin. Stokes A-30804 reflects slope deposition on a lower flank of a paleo-bathymetric high receiving higher detrital influx from inter-ridge troughs. Slope deposition of Newlove 76-RD1 was closer to a paleo-bathymetric high where purer diatomaceous sediments accumulated. Within Stokes A-30804, purer opal-A dominant lithofacies contain the highest oil saturations. The diagenesis and precipitation of opal-CT and abundance of phyllosilicate significantly hinders oil saturation within lithofacies.

Full text
Abstract:

Though the Cotton Valley Group is productive in Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas, little is known about production potential of the Bossier Formation (Lower Cotton Valley Shale) in southwest Mississippi. The Bossier Formation in Jefferson County, Mississippi is an organic-poor, carbonate-rich mudrock with siliciclastic intervals. Examination of cuttings by petrographic and scanning electron microscopy revealed fractures that have been filled by calcite and pore-filling pyrite. Porosity exists within and around pyrite framboids, in unfilled fractures, and within peloid grains. Organic matter is rare in Lower Cotton Valley samples suggesting it is not self-sourcing. Total Organic Carbon (TOC) values are low (0.86-1.1% TOC) compared to the productive Haynesville Shale Formation (2.8% TOC). Porosity of the Lower Cotton Valley Shale is low (2.5-4.2%) compared to productive Haynesville Shale Formations (8-12%). With current technology and gas prices, the Lower Cotton Valley Shale in Jefferson County, Mississippi does not have production potential.

Full text
Abstract:

The informally known “Mississippian Limestone” stratigraphic interval in north-central Oklahoma, U.S.A. bears no chronostratigraphic markers and has no formally established biostratigraphic framework to date. Conodonts collected from four “Mississippian Limestone” cores in Logan, Payne, and Lincoln Counties provide the means for better constraining the stratigraphic age of the interval over the area studied. Conodont extraction was conducted by acid digestion of whole-rock samples and heavy liquid density separation after which conodont genera and species types were identified from scanning electron microscopy. Biostratigraphically significant conodonts recovered in combination with chemostratigraphic work by Dupont (2016) and earlier studies by Thornton (1958), Curtis and Chaplin (1959), McDuffie (1959), Rowland (1964), Selk and Ciriacks (1968), and Harris (1975) indicate the “Mississippian Limestone” ranges from middle Osagean to late Chesterian in age. In general, conodont element recoveries were too low in quantity and too poor of quality for use as biostratigraphic markers. The relatively low recovery and poor preservation quality of the conodont elements are attributed primarily to the elements being reworked soon after deposition by frequent storms on a mid- to outer-ramp environment in a low-latitude carbonate ramp setting. The results of this investigation are most significant in that they help place Mississippian deposition over the area studied within the context of a global Carboniferous stratigraphy. The results also allow for the Mississippian interval in the study area to be more accurately related to time-correlative strata with similar or better age constraint for constructing more temporally meaningful depositional models of the Oklahoma basin.

Full text
Abstract:

The Tuscaloosa Marine Shale (TMS) in southwest Mississippi and south-central Louisiana has potential to become a prolific source of fossil fuels using hydraulic fracturing technology. The objective of this study is to better understand the sequence and regional stratigraphy, lithology, and character of the TMS. Studying the TMS’s lithologic, depositional, and diagenetic properties is essential to maximize potential production. Characterization of the eastern TMS was performed with cuttings from two wells provided by the Mississippi Oil and Gas Board through MDEQ, and two provided by the USGS. Thirty-one petrophysical logs were correlated, to make cross sections and trace sequence stratigraphic intervals within the TMS. Results of the study showed lithologic variability and compaction across the study area, and a sequence stratigraphic correlation of the highstand systems track between the Tuscaloosa and Eagle Ford Groups. This research aims to work toward the greatest potential of the TMS as an unconventional reservoir.

Liner, Thomas. "Subsurface Analysis of Mississippian Tripolitic Chert in Northwest Arkansas." Thesis, University of Arkansas, 2018. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10975846.

Full text
Abstract:

Over the past 70 years the Mississippian strata of Northwest Arkansas have been studied in great detail. The study area is located on the escarpment between the Boston Mountains Plateau and the Springfield Plateau where a surface occurrence of Mississippian age rock allows for access to outcrops in close proximity to gas wells that encounter subsurface Mississippian strata. Many outcrops found in Northwest Arkansas expose Lower Mississippian (Kinderhookian-Osagean) strata that represent a full third order transgressive/regressive sequence that is unconformity bounded. These Mississippian outcrops are commonly treated as surface analogs to the Mississippi Lime Play in North Central Oklahoma. This thesis focuses on the analysis of Boone tripolitic chert in the subsurface utilizing wireline data available from selected gas wells within the study area. The primary goal of this project is to determine and quantify the subsurface stratigraphic position of tripolitic chert from wells that cut a complete section of the Boone Formation. 24 of the 27 (89%) wells within the study with bulk density logs penetrated a substantial section of the Boone Formation and confirmed the presence of tripolite through a density value less than 2.1 g/cc.

Analysis of wireline data from selected wells is used to characterize the Mississippian system with a specific focus on the distribution of tripolitic chert. Correlation of Mississippian gas production to tripolitic chert occurrence along with the correlation of subsurface data with outcrop data are secondary objectives.

Full text
Abstract:

Integrated analysis of well and geophysical data can provide detailed geologic interpretation of the subsurface in Osage County, Oklahoma. Systems tracts and depositional system successions can be interpreted at marginal seismic resolution using well log motif with seismic reflector character within a depositional context. Shelf-prism and subaqueous, delta-scale clinoforms of Missourian age observed in 3D seismic were interpreted with greater sequence stratigraphic detail when coupled with wireline well logs. The Late Pennsylvanian Midcontinent Sea was thought to be approximately 150 feet average depth across the southern Midcontinent during the Missourian Stage, and deepen towards the Arkoma and Anadarko Basins to the south. Here we show that the Late Pennsylvanian Midcontinent Sea floor was in water depths greater than 600 feet and sloped to the southeast, toward major, southern basins, during the Missourian Stage in Osage County. Shelf-prism and delta scale clinoforms up to 600 and 300 feet of relief, respectively, were observed in paired seismic and well log cross sections, thickness maps, and structure maps dipping northwest at 052° strike, upon a basin floor dipping southeast at 253° strike. Lithologic and sequence stratigraphic interpretation revealed a mixed carbonate-siliciclastic system comprising of delta, offshore shelf, and carbonate buildup depositional systems of mesothem, 3rd order sequence magnitude. The observed succession included: 1) falling stage to lowstand, sand-prone, subaqueous delta, 2) transgressive to highstand offshore shelf and carbonate bank, and 3) falling stage delta. The depositional sucession demonstrates how carbonate banks related spatially to terrigenous sediment input in northeastern Oklahoma during the Late Pennsylvanian because of glacio-eustasy and possible tectonism.

Full text
Abstract:

A 6012-foot Monterey Formation succession at Chico Martinez Creek, San Joaquin basin, is characterized at high spatial resolution by spectral gamma-ray data in 2- foot increments, 5-foot lithologic descriptions, and qualitative XRD and FTIR analysis. Based on these data, the 4 Monterey members–the Gould, Devilwater, McDonald and Antelope shales–are subdivided into 7 distinctive lithofacies. New paleomagnetic data, combined with industry-provided biostratigraphy establishes a chronostratigraphic framework and allows determination of linear sediment accumulation rates. Condensed sedimentation at the onset of McDonald deposition (~14 Ma) is also observed in correlative members in the Pismo, Santa Maria and Santa Barbara basins. This regional event is associated with eustatic regression from the Mid-Miocene highstand related to formation of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet and ongoing thermotectonic basin subsidence. A surge in linear sediment accumulation rates in the siliceous upper McDonald and Antelope (~10.4 Ma) is attributed to a regional increase in diatom productivity.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Several wells have encountered good oil shows in the rift basins of northern Somalia, however, without finding commercial hydrocarbons to date. It is widely accepted that these basins have a similar tectonic evolution and a comparable sedimentary fill as the highly productive rift basins in Yemen from which they have been separated by the opening of the Gulf of Aden (fully established in Mid Oligocene). We present new regional tectonic maps, new basement outcrop maps, a new structural transect and new play maps, specifically for the Odewayne, Nogal, Daroor and Socotra Basins. Digital terrain data, satellite images, surface geology maps (varying scales), oil seep/slick maps, potential data (gravity), well data from ~50 wells and data from scientific publications were compiled into a regional GIS-database, so that different data categories could be spatially analyzed. To set the tectonic framework, the outlines of the basins under investigation were re-mapped, paying particular attention to crystalline basement outcrops. A set of play maps was established. We recognize at least three source rocks, five reservoirs and at least three regional seals to be present in the area (not all continuously present). Numerous oil seeps are documented, particularly in the Nogal and Odewayne Basins, indicative of ongoing migration or re-migration. Data from exploration wells seem to further support the presence of active petroleum systems, especially in the central Nogal, western Nogal and central Daroor Basins. Our GIS-based data integration confirms that significant hydrocarbon potential remains in the established rift basins, such as the Nogal and Daroor Basins. Additionally, there are a number of less known satellite basins (on and offshore) which can be mapped out and that remain completely undrilled. All of these basins have to be considered frontier basins, due to their poorly understood geology, remoteness, marketing issues and missing oil infrastructure, making the economic risks significant. However, we believe that through acquisition of new seismic data, geochemical analysis, basin modelling and, ultimately, exploration drilling these risks can be mitigated to a point where the economic risks become acceptable. We encourage explorers to conduct regional basin analysis, data integration, a GIS-based approach and modern structural geology concepts to tackle key issues, such as trap architecture, structural timing, migration pathways and breaching risks.

Abstract:
Abstract During field development, a detailed understanding of reservoir geometry and associated sedimentary features within the sand sequence plays an important role in the effective recovery of hydrocarbon resources. Most aging fields encounter the common problem in well placement for effective production of the remaining hydrocarbon resources. The current example—onshore formation from Late Miocene in East Kalimantan—includes seismic data acquired during the 1970s and 1980s. Considering advancements and breakthroughs provided by current technology, the older information could provide a greater level of subsurface uncertainty. Geological challenges include comprehending geometry prediction and the continuity of the amalgamated distributary reservoir channels and the depositional architecture within a fluvio-deltaic environment in a structurally complex field. High-density borehole microresistivity image data from several wells in the study area were acquired to constrain and reduce the geological uncertainty resulting from poor control of subsurface imaging through the surface seismic data. Microresistivity imaging data were used to identify sedimentary features and to perform electrofacies analysis. The data are used for the structural reconstruction of sequences by decoding a different order of structural deformation and reconstructing the sediment transport direction at the time of deposition. The results are then incorporated within the regional geology context in the basin. The consistent shale/silt beddings in the studied wells indicate an overall structural dip trend of 10° toward the east. The structural deformation within the same section of these wells is identified by the characteristics in the rotation of the structural dips. This suggests the proximity of these wells in relation to the deformation plane of sub seismic features and helps refine the structural maps. During a later phase, the reservoir is correlated within the wells, and careful selection of a palaeocurrent indicator is established from the vertical distribution of the sedimentary beddings for paleogeography reconstruction. Based on this, the channel complex dispersal direction was observed to exhibit an overall easterly direction with complex migration, and the identified mouth bar sequences reveal more widespread geometry. The dispersion or variations observed in the studied wells are then correlated to the overall reservoir architecture within fluvio-deltaic settings. The case study demonstrates the applications of borehole microresistivity data and their importance in providing a high-resolution well-to-well correlation for sand body delineation within the targeted sequences. The results provide details about the structural complexity in the underlying subsurface litho-sequence and illustrate how behaviors change laterally from one well to another. This analysis helps develop a high-resolution geocellular model for the field.
