Book Definition and Hydrocarbon Potential of the Late Devonian Three Forks Formation  Williston Basin  South Dakota

Download or read book Definition and Hydrocarbon Potential of the Late Devonian Three Forks Formation Williston Basin South Dakota written by Michelle Louise Ozarowski and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An evaluation of the Three Forks Formation, to determine hydrocarbon potential, was performed in the Williston Basin of South Dakota using wells logs from the South Dakota Geological Survey. Basin analysis included identification of upper and lower boundaries, extent, lithologic description, stratigraphic correlation, and hydrocarbon potential. Thickness of Three Forks rocks ranges from 0 to 170 feet, and was thickest in northern Perkins and Corson counties and thinned toward the basin margins. Lithologically, the rocks consisted primarily of interbedded shale and dolomitic limestone. Stratigraphically, Three Forks rocks occurred between the underlying Birdbear Formation and overlying Englewood Formation. In areas where the Englewood was absent, it was overlain by the Lodgepole Formation. In North Dakota, eastern Montana, and Canada, the Three Forks underlies the Bakken Formation, serving as a reservoir for Bakken shale oil. No Bakken rocks were identified in well logs from South Dakota and the Three Forks and other Late Devonian formations have been underexplored. Well log analysis revealed three previously unidentified potential subsurface structures in the Williston Basin of South Dakota. In addition, data have supported proposed southeastern extensions of the Cedar Creek Anticline and Sheep Mountain Syncline. Black shale, indicating areas of restricted water circulation, have been identified in the Three Forks, in limited areas of estimated maturity, that suggest ideal conditions for the preservation of organic matter. These areas were correlated using gamma-ray spikes and estimated TOC values from 1.4 to 5.6 wt. %, at depths Three Forks rocks would be expected to contain mature hydrocarbons. Based on estimated TOC values and associated thicknesses of TOC-bearing intervals, limited potential exists for Three Forks source and reservoir rock in northwestern South Dakota, particularly in northern Perkins and eastern Harding counties.

Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1 957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 28 (thesis year 1 983) a total of 10,661 theses titles from 26 Canadian and 197 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 28 reports theses submitted in-1983, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.
