Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Black Warrior Basin, located in northwestern Alabama and northeastern Mississippi, is a triangular area of 35,000 square miles. This report's objectives is to characterize its lower-permeability gas-bearing formations for inclusion in the Gas Research Institute tight gas sands program. The characterized reservoir units include a summary of the regional geologic setting, hydrocarbon distribution and production, exploration activity and pipeline availability. Within the study area, the Lower Mississippian Carter Sandstone may have sufficient extent, reservoir characteristics and gas reserves to be of interest to the tight gas sands program. cf.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 'sedimentary cover' refers to the stratified rocks of youngest Proterozoic and Phanerozoic age that rest upon the largely crystalline basement rocks of the continental interior. This volume presents data and interpretations of the geophysics of the craton and summarizes the craton's tectonic evolution. It also presents the stratigraphy, structural history, and economic geology of specific sedimentary basins (e.g. Appalachian basin) and regions (e.g. Rocky Mountains). It concludes with a discussion of the currently popular theories of cratonal tectonics, & unresolved questions are identified.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geraghty & Miller, Inc. of Midland, Texas conducted geological and hydrological feasibility studies of the potential applicability of Jack W. Mclntyre's patented process for the recovery of natural gas from coalbed/sand formations in the Black Warrior Basin of Mississippi and Alabama through literature surveys. Methane gas from coalbeds in the Black Warrior Basin is confined to the coal fields of northern Alabama. Produced water from degasification of coalbeds is currently disposed by surface discharge. Treatment prior to discharge consists of short-term storage and in-stream dilution. Mr. Mclntyre's process appears to be applicable to the Black Warrior Basin and could provide an environmentally sound alternative for produced water production.

Rutter and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Black Warrior Basin is a triangular shaped foreland basin located in the southeastern United States between the Appalachian and Ouachita fold and thrust belts. The basin has the potential to provide geologic carbon sinks into multiple stacked saline reservoirs over a large area. CO_2 storage potential of saline aquifers and oil and gas reservoirs in the Black Warrior Basin has yet to be fully assessed. This study evaluates saline reservoirs on the eastern edge of the basin underlying William C. Gorgas Power Plant (Plant Gorgas), Walker County, Alabama. Key reservoirs include the Pennsylvanian Boyles Sandstone, the Mississippian Hartselle Sandstone and Tuscumbia Limestone, and the Ordovician Stones River Group. Data include two post-stack time-migrated seismic reflection profiles, geophysical logs collected in a 1498 m (4915 ft) stratigraphic test well, and a zero-offset vertical seismic profile (ZVSP). Interpretations of key seismic reflectors in the Black Warrior Basin are presented based on a synthetic seismogram, check-shots, a zero-offset VSP, and a well-constrained well-seismic tie. Units in the velocity model are based on lithologic boundaries interpreted as seismic horizons and well tops. An investigation of geologic structures and the lateral extent of saline aquifers in the area surrounding Plant Gorgas is based on depth converted seismic data. Volumetric calculations for the Boyles and Hartselle sandstones, and the Tuscumbia and Stones River Group limestones were calculated to demonstrate the potential to store substantial amounts of carbon dioxide in the Black Warrior Basin. The volumetric estimations that are listed below show the effects of injecting 10% of Plant Gorgas's emissions (0.75 Megatons of CO_2 /year) over a thirty-year period. The Lower Boyles Sandstone CO_2 plume would extend to a radius of 3.6 km (2.25 miles) ± 0.22 km (0.14 miles) around the borehole; 5.2 km (3.23 miles) ± 0.35 km (0.22 miles) in the Hartselle Sandstone; 4.7 km (2.92 miles) ± 0.07 km (0.04 miles) in the Tuscumbia Limestone; and 7.2 km (4.47 miles) ± 0.065 km (0.04 miles) in the Stones River Formation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Appalachians constitute one of Earth's major tectonic features and have served as a springboard for innovative geologic thought for more than 170 years. This volume contains 36 original papers reporting the results of research performed throughout nearly the entire length and breadth of the Appalachian region, including all major provinces and geographical areas. Memoir 206 was designed to commemorate the (near-)fortieth anniversary of the publication of the classic Studies of Appalachian Geology volumes that appeared just prior to the application of plate tectonic concepts to the region. Contributions concerning structural evolution, sedimentation, stratigraphy, magmatic processes, metamorphism, tectonics, and terrane accretion illustrate the wide range of ongoing research in the area and collectively serve to mark the considerable progress in scientific thought that has occurred during the past four decades."--pub. desc.
