This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents a suite of detailed stratigraphic and sedimentologic investigations of the Eocene Green River Formation of Wyoming, Colorado and Utah, one of the world’s foremost terrestrial archives of lacustrine and alluvial deposition during the warmest portion of the early Cenozoic. Its twelve chapters encompass the rich and varied record of lacustrine stratigraphy, sedimentology, geochronology, geochemistry and paleontology. Chapters 2-9 provide detailed member-scale synthesis of Green River Formation strata within the Greater Green River, Fossil, Piceance Creek and Uinta Basins, while its final two chapters address its enigmatic evaporite deposits and ichnofossils at broad, interbasinal scale.

Download or read book Shale oil resource play potential of the Green River Formation Uinta Basin Utah written by Steven Schamel and published by Utah Geological Survey. This book was released on 2015-05-01 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Green River Formation in the Uinta Basin has may characteristics typical of an ideal shale oil resource play. It is a world-class oil-prone source rock. In nearly all parts of the basin there are many thousands of net feet of Type-l and Type-ll kerogen-rich calcareous mudstones, many intervals of which have average total organic carbon (TOC) of 5-10% or greater. In the north-central and western parts of the basin a substantial part of the formation is in the oil-generative window. Furthermore, organic maturation simulations done in this study using PRA BasinView-3D™ indicates early entry into the oil-generative window. In the northwest parts of the basin the lower Green River Formation was generating oil even before the end of the Eocene and slowing of sediment accumulation in the basin. The Green River Formation is unquestionably a superb petroleum system responsible for very large cumulative production of oil and associated natural gas, and an even larger potential oil sand resource. This DVD contains a 65-page report.
Download or read book Petrophysics written by Djebbar Tiab and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2024-03-27 with total page 976 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Petrophysics, a seminal text in the field authored by recognized experts, now in its 5th edition, delivers information for reservoir engineers, production engineers and geoscience students fundamental to understanding rock-fluid interaction, and critical to maximizing reservoir performance while minimizing emissions and environmental impacts. This new edition lays a foundation through an introduction to petroleum geology, including an overview of pre- and post- carbon emission concerns, porosity and permeability, formation resistivity and water saturation, capillary pressure, wettability, applications of Darcy's Law, naturally fractured reservoirs, stress effects on reservoir rock, reservoir characterization and well logs, fluid-rock interactions, shale gas and shale oil in unconventional reservoirs, and culminates in current studies on permeability from practical interpretation of pressure and rate transient analysis of tight and shale reservoirs. Each chapter synthesizes relevant theory, studies and advances, methods, procedures, calculations, definitions, exercises and assignments designed to reinforce learning. • Continues its longstanding, 28-year history as the leading book on petrophysics• Captures advances in field technologies, reservoir evaluation and testing, porosity, permeability, updated calculations and indices in wettability, permeability, brittleness and fracability.• Includes up-to-date discussions on carbon footprints and strategies to reduce emissions• Each chapter synthesizes relevant theory, studies and advances, methods, procedures, calculations, definitions, exercises and assignments designed to reinforce learning

Book excerpt: How will chemists of the future balance competing concerns of environmental stewardship and innovative, cost-effective product development? For chemists to accept the idea that environmental quality and economic prosperity can be intertwined, the concept of the food-energy-water nexus must first be integrated into underlying thought processes. Food, Energy and Water: The Chemistry Connection provides today's scientists with the background information necessary to fully understand the inextricable link between food, energy and water and how this conceptual framework should form the basis for all contemporary research and development in chemistry in particular, and the sciences in general. - Presents a clear, quantitative explanation of the link between food, energy, and water - Provides information not currently available in chemistry curricula or synthesized in existing resources - Examines the challenges of the food-energy-water nexus from a chemistry perspective within a multi-disciplinary domain - Includes the latest research on critical topics such as fracking, water use conflicts, and sustainability in food production cycles
