Mathematical Modelling of Compaction and Diagenesis in Sedimentary Basins

Fast and Slow Compaction in Sedimentary Basins

A mathematical model of compaction in sedimentary basins is presented and analyzed. Compaction occurs when accumulating sediments compact under their own weight, expelling pore water in the process. If sedimentation is rapid or the permeability is low, then high pore pressures can result, a phenomenon which is of importance in oil drilling operations. Here we show that one-dimensional compactio...

Adaptive Resonance Theory Based Sedimentary Basins Identification

The objective of this paper is to present identification and recognition of Magneto-telluric data for sedimentary basins using Adaptive Resonance Theory (ART). Several sets of data consisting of 17 phases and 17 apparent resistivity values and their respective tag values are given. These sets of data are used for training the network, and other sets of data are used to test the network. The tes...

Geological and Petrophysical 3d Modelling of Sedimentary Basins for Groundwater Applications, Brgm

During the past 50 years the Bureau de Recherche Géologiques et Minières, (BRGM) has collected a large amount of diverse data during projects for water and h ydrocarbons exploration and underground storage investigations (methane, nuclear-waste, etc.). Societal and environmental issues have had a significant influence on research applied to groundwater exploration and characterization. During t...

Computer Modelling of an Over-pressured Medium Enthalpy Geothermal Reservoir Located in Deep Sedimentary Basin

Over-pressure conditions occur in the southeastern regon of the Pannonian Basin due to the reversal of the regional tectonic stress beginning in the Middle Mocene. Exploratory wells in the area discovered well head pressures close to 350 bar and high temperatures exceeding 1 9 0 T at depth of 3,500 m. These promising shows, based on early appraisals, require thorough in depth investigations in ...
