This book was released on 2013 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outcrops of the upper Miocene - Pliocene Capistrano Formation in San Clemente State Beach provide near continuous exposures of nested sandstone channel bodies. Numerous outcrop studies have reached varying conclusions on fundamental characteristics of the outcrop. Varying interpretations of channel stacking, confinement, hierarchy, and gradient profile position reflect the uncertainty associated with three-dimensional interpretation of a two-dimensional outcrop. The northwest - southeast oriented cliffs range from 3 to 15 m in height and 2.3 km in length. The study focuses on three outcrop segments oriented sub-parallel to northwest (341°) paleoflow. The southernmost segment has been the subject of the most intense study while the two northern outcrops have only recently been incorporated. Eleven sedimentological sections totaling 124 meters, and two kilometers of outcrop photo panel were integrated and interpreted within a hierarchy of sedimentary attributes. A new channel hierarchy for Capistrano Formation is proposed where the outcrop belt at San Clemente State Beach in interpreted to represent a single upper-slope channel fairway. Three sedimentation regions are defined by sedimentary facies, sedimentation units, and sedimentary bodies and surfaces, which record varying degrees of confinement on the upper-slope profile position. Four channel complexes represent allogenic phases of sedimentation recording the initiation, growth, and retreat of the channel fairway. Each channel complex is composed of multiple composite channels that represent repeated cutting and filling episodes of autogenic sedimentation. Within the composite channel, elementary channels represent channel thalweg migration within an open channel course.

Download or read book Petroleum Geology of NW Europe written by B. Levell and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2018-02-15 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the Geological Society on behalf of PGC Ltd. (1 hardback volume in slipcase). The 8th Conference on the Petroleum Geology of NW Europe was held in September 2015 and marked the 50th anniversary of the first commercial discovery offshore in the North Sea (West Sole, in September 1965). Its focus was ‘50 Years of Learning – a Platform for Present Value and Future Success’ and its objective was to provide an update on discoveries, developments, technologies and geological concepts from the region. The 39 extensively illustrated technical papers cover the full width of recent activity and are divided into the following sections: Plays and fairways; Play assessment; Recent successes and learnings from failures; Infrastructure-led exploration and development; Late-life fields, re-development and the ‘next life’; Onshore exploration and development. The proceedings volume follows the format of many of the previous conferences since the first in 1974. Collectively these provide a unique documentation of the discovery and development of several NW European hydrocarbon provinces. The volume will be of interest to all geoscientists involved in exploration and development in NW Europe. It provides a fascinating overview of how creativity can continue to reveal hidden resources in an area that has been called ‘mature’ for at least the last 20 of its 50-year history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deep-water (below wave base) processes, although generally hidden from view, shape the sedimentary record of more than 65% of the Earth’s surface, including large parts of ancient mountain belts. This book aims to inform advanced-level undergraduate and postgraduate students, and professional Earth scientists with interests in physical oceanography and hydrocarbon exploration and production, about many of the important physical aspects of deep-water (mainly deep-marine) systems. The authors consider transport and deposition in the deep sea, trace-fossil assemblages, and facies stacking patterns as an archive of the underlying controls on deposit architecture (e.g., seismicity, climate change, autocyclicity). Topics include modern and ancient deep-water sedimentary environments, tectonic settings, and how basinal and extra-basinal processes generate the typical characteristics of basin slopes, submarine canyons, contourite mounds and drifts, submarine fans, basin floors and abyssal plains.
