This book was released on 2016-11-05 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geophysical Logging of Water Wells in Northeastern Illinois In addition to their practical value to the men who are responsible for the drilling, maintenance, and operation of water wells, and consequently to the many individuals and industries depend ent upon the water from these wells, geophysical logs furnish a wealth of data that are of scientific value today and that may prove to be of practical value tomorrow. This discussion, however, is limited to the results that repay the cost of geophysical surveys in dollars and cents to the well owner and his engineer or to the drilling contractor.

Download or read book Factors Controlling Oil Well Completions in the Illinois Basin Classic Reprint written by Carl Andrew Bays and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10-07 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Factors Controlling Oil-Well Completions in the Illinois Basin Cypress sandstone. The Cypress sandstone is one of the most impor tant producing sand formations in the Illinois basin. It usually has one to three sandstone zones. The upper one is locally a green sand and is commonly known as the upper Weiler. In general, it is not impor tant because it is tight and calcare ous but in some fields it is a well developed reservoir. The sand which has its top about 20 to 40 ft. Under the Barlow limestone is the princi pal producing sand. In some wells this sand is divided by shale so as to make three Cypress sands in all. The sands range from fine to medi um grained, well sorted to poorly sorted quartz sand with low to high permeability and porosity. Lateral variations in texture and porosity are common and thin shaly lenses are numerous. Although many of the fields have a definite water table, the oil-'water contact is usu ally gradational so that even though the well cores show apparently good saturation the sand will produce wa ter in some localities when tested.

Book excerpt: The paleontologist and professor of anatomy who co-discovered Tiktaalik, the “fish with hands,” tells a “compelling scientific adventure story that will change forever how you understand what it means to be human” (Oliver Sacks). By examining fossils and DNA, he shows us that our hands actually resemble fish fins, our heads are organized like long-extinct jawless fish, and major parts of our genomes look and function like those of worms and bacteria. Your Inner Fish makes us look at ourselves and our world in an illuminating new light. This is science writing at its finest—enlightening, accessible and told with irresistible enthusiasm.

Download or read book The Geology of Stratigraphic Sequences written by Andrew D. Miall and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sequence stratigraphy represents a new paradigm in geology. The principal hypothesis is that stratigraphie successions may be subdivided into discrete sequences bounded by widespread unconformities. There are two parts to this hypothesis. First, it suggests that the driving forces which generate sequences and their bounding unconformities also generate predietable three-dimensional stratigraphies. In re cent years stratigraphie research guided by sequence models has brought about fundamental im provements in our understanding of stratigraphie processes and the controls of basin architecture. Sequence models have provided a powerful framework for mapping and numerieal modeling, enabling the science of stratigraphy to advance with rapid strides. This research has demonstrated the importance of a wide range of processes for the generation of cyclie sequences, including eustasy, tectonics, and orbital forcing of climate change. The main objective of this book is to document the sequence record and to discuss our current state of knowledge about sequence-generating processes.

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.
