Download or read book Lithofacies Paleogeography and Geological Survey of Shale Gas written by Chuanlong Mou and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-04-06 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an open access book. This book presents new theory and methods on compiling lithofacies paleogeographic maps as a key tool for guiding geological survey on shale gas. The fundamental goal of the shale gas geological survey is to find the ‘dessert’ area. It is therefore suggested that the lithofacies paleogeographic study and the technique of mapping should be a solid scientific basis for shale gas exploration. It takes Ordovician Wufeng-Silurian Longmaxi Formation in Sichuan Basin and its adjacent area as an example to illustrate how to find the ‘dessert’ area of shale gas in geological survey phase by compiling lithofacies paleogeographic map. It’s a valuable reference for both scientific research and teaching courses in the fields of sedimentary lithofacies, paleogeography, stratigraphy, and oil and gas.
Download or read book Paleogeography and Sedimentary Development of Two Deep marine Foreland Basins written by Anne Bernhardt and published by Stanford University. This book was released on 2011 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation comprises three chapters focusing on the evolution of marine sedimentary successions that formed as the fill of large submarine channel belts and their tributary systems. These channel belts serve as conduits for gravel- and sand-laden sediment gravity flows along the axes of narrow, elongate foreland basins. In the past, axial channel belts have not been widely recognized in submarine foreland basins (Mutti et al., 2003). However, recent studies have demonstrated the presence of axial channels, 3-8 km in width and > 100 km in length, in a number of marine foredeeps including the Cretaceous Magallanes Basin, southern Chile, and the Tertiary Molasse Basin, northern Austria (De Ruig and Hubbard, 2006; Hubbard et al., 2008, 2009). Additional studies have shown that similar channels are common in submarine trough-shaped basins in other convergent margin settings such as the Peru-Chile trench (Thornburg et al. 1990, Völker et al., 2006), the Hikurangi trough, offshore New Zealand (Lewis and Pantin, 2002), and the Nankai trough, offshore Japan (Fig. 1 in Moore et al., 2007), as well as in modern oceanic rift basins, such as the Maury channel in the Northeast Atlantic Rockall Basin (Cherkis et al., 1973) and the Northwest Atlantic Mid-Ocean Channel (NAMOC) in the Labrador Sea (Hesse et al., 1987, 1990; Hesse, 1989, Klaucke et al., 1998). These occurrences suggest that axial channels may be common sediment transport fairways in elongate deep-water basins in a variety of tectonic settings. This thesis investigates the sedimentary evolution, stratigraphic architecture, and paleogeography of such channel systems in two distinct, yet analogous and complementary research areas: the Magallanes foreland basin in southern Chile, and the Molasse foreland basin in northern Austria. The main objectives of this study are: a)to characterize the processes of submarine sediment transport and deposition in the study areas, b)to explain the associated filling patterns of ancient submarine axial channels and their tributaries, and c)to reconstruct the paleogeography of an ancient seafloor in order to better understand deep-marine sediment dispersal patterns in narrow elongate basins. The Magallanes Basin is a retro-arc foreland basin characterized by a deep-marine filling history from the Cenomanian/ Turonian (Fildani et al., 2003; Fosdick et al., in press) to the Campanian (Chapter 3). The numerous coarse-grained submarine channel and lobe complexes of the Turonian to Campanian Cerro Toro Formation represent a large north-south oriented channel belt that funneled sediment gravity flows along the axis of the foreland basin parallel to the active thrust front (Hubbard et al., 2008). This main axial trunk channel belt was probably fed by at least one, and possibly numerous, tributary channel systems coming off the Andean mountain front to the west. Similarly, sedimentation within the Upper Austrian Molasse Basin during the late Oligocene to early Miocene was largely controlled by an axial trunk channel that was fed by a deltaic system to the west and a tributary system lying along the Inntal fault zone to the southwest (De Ruig and Hubbard, 2006). Three studies were undertaken in order to illuminate the processes and architecture of the fill of submarine foreland basin axial channels: the interaction of submarine debris flows and turbidity currents within the axial channel in the Molasse Basin (Chapter 1), the stratigraphic and architectural evolution of coarse-grained deep-water deposits in a tributary system setting in the Magallanes Basin (Chapter 2), and the paleogeography of the Magallanes Basin axial channel belt and its tributary system and the associated basin-filling pattern over time (Chapter 3). Multiple techniques were combined to achieve these goals, including field mapping, sedimentological analysis of outcrops and rock cores, interpretation of wireline logs and 3D seismic-reflection data, U/Pb dating of zircons, strontium isotope stratigraphy, and a novel approach to lithofacies proportion modeling (Stright et al., 2009).
Download or read book Global Neoproterozoic Petroleum Systems written by Jonathan Craig and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2009 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Worldwide, Neoproterozoic successions are major hydrocarbon producers. In North Africa, large basins with significant surface outcrops and thick sedimen-tary fills are widespread. These basins are now emerging as potential sources of hydrocarbons and are attracting interest both from geological researchers and the oil and gas industry. This volume focuses on recent developments in the understanding and correla-tion of North African basin fills and explores novel approaches to prospecting for source and reservoir rocks. The papers cover aspects of petroleum prospectivity and age-equivalent global petroleum systems, Neoproterozoic tectonics and pa-laeogeography, sequence stratigraphy, glacial events and global climatic models, faunal and floral evolution and the deposition of early source rocks. The broader aim is to compare with, and learn from, well-studied Neoproterozoic successions globally, including major environmental change, the emergence of life, the global carbon cycle and implications for hydrocarbon exploration.

This book was released on 2023-11-16 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shale resource systems include conventional source rocks, unconventional resources such as shale gas and shale oil system. Regardless of the type of shale resource system, the issues of petroleum formation processes (including petroleum generation, migration and storage) are very important in petroleum evaluation and exploration. Because of the complicated and different geological settings in the world, the evaluation approaches and workflows may not be easily implemented following those from successful examples. Thus, the mechanisms of petroleum formation are fundamental for petroleum exploration and production all over in the world. The reason this special issue focuses on the shale system is because the shale system is not only the main source rock type but also the main unconventional reservoir type in the world.

Download or read book Calcretes written by V. Paul Wright and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-04-15 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Calcretes are an important component of many ancient fluvial, lacustrine and shallow-marine carbonate sequences, and they are widely developed in many parts of the world at the present time. Calcretes are useful to the earth scientist involved in reconstructing ancient environments, palaeoclimates and palaeographics, and they may also reveal details of soil biota and chemistry. Over the last two decades the journal Sedimentology has published a number of articles on this subject and a compilation of them is presented here. In addition to the five main sections, this volume also includes an introduction to the subject that offers a review of recent work on calcretes. The collection of papers illustrates the range of calcrete occurrences and the great variety of textures and fabrics. This volume is authored and edited by experts and will serve as more than an introduction to the subject for geologists, soil scientists and geographers.
