Principles of Sequence Stratigraphy, Second Edition presents principles to practical workflow that guide applications in a consistent manner that is independent of model, geological setting and the types and resolution of the data available. The book explains the points of agree…
The recent discovery of petroleum in the Cretaceous strata has gained an interest to study the source of the petroleum fluids mainly generated by the Triassic Shublik Formation in the Alaska North Slope. The Shublik Formation is known as one of the key source rocks in the Alaska…
Two paleogeographic configurations of the Jurassic of western North America have been proposed with differing locations of the entrance to the Jurassic Sundance Seaway, referred to as the southern-entrance and northern-entrance hypotheses. Here, analyses of facies architecture, …
Passive margin coastal basins are recipients of thick sedimentary successions with significant economic interest. Natural resources hosted in these sequences are being targeted around the globe. The evolution of passive margins predicted by classic thermal sag models is being ch…
The Pennsylvanian Red Fork Sandstone has a long history of conventional oil and gas production in western Oklahoma, particularly in an elongate trend called the Clinton-Weatherford channel. This study focuses on this trend in four counties, Blaine, Caddo, Custer, and Washita to …
A seismic stratigraphy study was conducted to develop a stratigraphic framework for Pliocene-Pleistocene sediments in the Ganal area, Makassar Strait, Indonesia. The study area, physiographically located in the continental slope of the offshore Kutai basin, is very attractive fo…
A geophysical and geological study utilizing high quality seismic and well log data was undertaken of a marginal basin in the Western Flores Sea, Indonesia, to document the evolution of Paleogene extensional basins and their transformation during the Neogene into compressional u…
The Black River and Trenton Limestone Groups of southern Ontario are a relatively thin (average 150 metres) carbonate succession in the Lake Simcoe area, resting unconformably on Precambrian basement. Local Precambrian ‘highs’ complicate the overall facies pattern and lithofacie…
