Late Pleistocene New Jersey Shelf sedimentation as a response to glacio-eustatic sea level rise
(2009-08)
Shallowly-buried channel systems have been imaged on the New Jersey Shelf with high-resolution seismic imaging. These channels formed as riverine systems that occupied the exposed shelf during the Last Glacial Maximum, ...
Structural model and fracture analyses for a major gas emplacement in Devonian sandstones of the Subandes
(2009-12)
The fold and thrust belt of the Subandean Ranges (central and southern Bolivia, and northern Argentina) contains both gas and condensate production and reserves in Devonian quartzose sandstones within deep structures. ...
Provenance of the south Texas Paleocene-Eocene Wilcox Group, western Gulf of Mexico basin : insights from sandstone modal compositions and detrital zircon geochronology
(2009-08)
Sandstone modal compositions and detrital zircon U-Pb analysis of the Paleocene-Eocene Wilcox Group of the southern Gulf Coast of Texas indicate long-distance sediment transport primarily from volcanic and basement sources ...
Coral-based climate reconstructions from a massive Porites coral from Sabine Bank (Vanuatu)
(2009-08)
A monthly resolved, 133 year record of coral Sr/Ca variations has been developed from a massive Porites coral that was drilled in the shallow waters of a submerged carbonate platform (Sabine Bank, 15.9°S, 166.14°E) located ...
Azimuthal analysis of hybrid gathers
(2009-05)
The cross-spread formed by intersecting source and receiver lines, or “hybrid gather” consisting of all common mid-points (CMPs) in a reflection patch defined by the acquisition geometry, has been revived in recent years ...
Deep water Gulf of Mexico pore pressure estimation utilizing P-SV waves from multicomponent seismic in Atlantis Field
(2009-12)
Overpressure, or abnormally low effective pressures, is hazardous in drilling operations and construction of sea-bottom facilities in deepwater environments. Estimation of the locations of overpressure can improve safety ...
Tectonostratigraphic evolution of the northeastern Maturin foreland basin, Venezuela
(2009-08)
The study uses subsidence analysis of three deep wells to basement combined with sequence stratigraphic mapping to show that a 85,000 km² area of the Eastern Venezuelan foreland basin in the region of the Orinoco Delta ...
The origin and properties of mass transport deposits, Ursa Basin, Gulf of Mexico
(2009-12)
Uniaxial consolidation experiments on Mass Transport Deposit (MTD) and non-MTD core samples from Ursa Basin, Gulf of Mexico, show MTDs have a lower porosity at a given effective stress compared to adjacent non-MTD sediments; ...
