Fluid flow features in carbonate platforms of the outer Browse Basin, Northwest Australia, are investigated using 3D seismic and borehole data. During the Cenozoic, the study area evolved from a carbonate ramp to a rimmed platform with isolated carbonate build-ups; as such it played a key role in focusing fluid on their buoyant flow to the surface. Statistical analyses of direct hydrocarbon ind...

The Middlebury Formation is a Middle Ordovician limestone deposited on the margin of Laurentia during the collision of the Ammonoosuc Arc with Laurentia. Tectonic processes such as subsidence can have an effect on the forearc basin morphology such that the sedimentation in the basin is influenced and the stratigraphy will reflect such tectonic processes. The purpose of this study is to examine ...

High-resolution seismic data and sediment cores reveal the late Holocene subsurface stratigraphy of the broad Tappan Zee– Piermont region of the Hudson River Estuary. We identify a series of distinct, extensive horizons beneath the marginal flats, channel banks, and main channel in this area. Physical properties and lithology from sediment cores suggest that these horizons are surfaces of erosi...

Abstract We investigated the source rock potential, sequence stratigraphy, and characterized hydrocarbon reservoirs at Otumara field, Niger delta, using integrated 3D seismic, wireline log analysis, basin modeling. The burial history thermal maturity were modeled, delineated, petrophysical parameters also estimated from logs. Passey “ΔLog R ” method for estimating preliminary evaluations of tot...

The present-day morpho-stratigraphy of the Ross Sea is result Cenozoic tectonic and cryospheric events, constitutes a key record Antarctica's evolution. An enduring problem in interpreting this broader regional context that correlation between eastern western stratigraphy has remained uncertain due to limited number drill sites. We correlate glacial-related features observed on dense network se...

Kudz Ze Kayah (KZK) and Wolverine are volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits hosted by Early Mississippian meta-rhyolites, marine metasedimentary rocks and intermediate to mafc metatuffs of the Yukon Tanana Terrane in the Simpson Range, southern Yukon (Figure I). This project aims to pinpoint, within central northern B.C., stratigraphy favorable to the formation of Early Mississippian volcanoge...
